La Femme en Rouge Silk Scarf

Made In The South 2016 winner, Susan Carson has the innate ability to create beautiful and timeless looking pieces inspired by nature. Each detail originates from one of the eighteenth- or nineteenth-century botanical prints she began buying in English, Parisian, and stateside flea markets more than twenty years ago. In her studio, Carson works with her digital designer to “cut” the images and pair them with contrasting backgrounds: latticework, dots, stripes; her experience in interior design informs the mixing of bold patterns.
