Shoppers looking for subtle prints and understated garments might be thrown off by the psychedelically mind-blowing illusions featured on each of Australia's Eager & Vane's [silk scarves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lisous-empire-collection).

Eager & Vane is not about making people feel like they blend in. Its elaborate designs are targeted towards people who love [unique fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highdive) and want to stand out in a crowd. Each of the patterns on Eager & Vane's scarves is colorful, busy and often full of [optical illusions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ripples-collection). One design is especially mind-blowing. It uses pointillism and spirals in black and white to make it seem as if the viewer is being absorbed into the pattern. It's a disarming experience but it definitely makes these garments some of the most memorable on the market.
