Scottish designer Charles Jeffrey Loverboy unveils a bold statement piece as a part of its Fall/Winter 2019 capsule in the form of a faux animal scarf design. The seasonal collection draws strong inspiration from cult films including Where the Wild Things Are and Peter Pan.

The entire range is packed with fashion-forward approaches through apparel and accessory designs but the faux animal scarf is without a doubt the standout item. It arrives in a color palette of black, red, and white, resembling an animal with its tongue sticking out. The tongue features branding details with a logo print and the entire piece boasts tonal stitching accents. The exaggerated shapes give it multi-functional elements as it is plush and can function as a pillow as well.
