Timeless Collaboration Project

The scarf is one of the humblest pieces of clothing but it is also one of the longest serving as it has been documented since Ancient Egyptian times. The scarf has kept us warm, aided our modesty, and mopped our sweat. But besides these functional aspects it has also marked the wearer in some way. The scarf has indicated rank, position, allegiance, and class. It has been used in ceremony, ritual and rites. The scarf is timeless.
