Design your own silk scarf with Contrado

Personalised Scarves Hand Printed And Made

We pride ourselves on giving our customers a pleasurable and unique shopping experience. Your exclusive scarves are all printed and made to order by a team of technicians right here in our studio, with assistance and advice on hand at every point on your design journey. 

Please note: As all of our scarves are handmade to order by real people, there will be some variance in the dimensions, measurements, and shape of the scarf. A predictable amount of shrinkage is likely to occur, this is normal and to be expected, and will be more apparent in the natural fabrics. The average shrinkage is 2-8%. Due to the natural softness of the high-quality fabrics we use, the edges of your scarf may be wavy. Note when selecting the Mulmul Muslin, this fabric is a naturally loose yarn, which may cause slight colour variations. This creates a slightly rustic finish that is truly unique. All scarves have a care label attached, if you would like to design your own label you can create an account and head to our branding station. 

Also, our Cashmere Wool Fabric is woven on hand looms from these unique fibres. Due to this process, small flaws, imperfections and irregularities in the weave are to be expected. Occasional small white unprinted areas can occur, which is when fabric fluff falls off during processing, exposing unprinted fabric - again this is to be expected with a tolerance of approximately 1-2 dots per m² deemed acceptable. Hemmed edges are prone to scalloping on this material, and may not exactly match straight lines in your design, due to the nature of this material this is to be expected.

Whether you design your own silk scarf for women, for men, for practical use or just to look fabulous, this selection of custom printed scarves has something for everyone. Made to order with the utmost care and precision. When you make your own scarf with Contrado, you will be working with us to create a beautiful, handmade piece, completely unique to you. As well as printing everything in-house, we also cut and finish your tailor-made scarves by hand, with a tidy and fine baby hem. Update your look today and give your accessory collection a personalised boost.

Present your scarf in a sturdy 220 mm x 160 mm x 24 mm tin case customised by you. Create a design that compliments your scarf or leave the tin unprinted. A handmade custom tin is a wonderful way to store your scarves or transport them without the risk of damage. Designed by you to add a custom touch.

What shapes of printed silk scarves are available?

How to wear a scarf really does depend on the shape. Because of this, we have created 4 totally wearable styles of custom made scarves for our diverse customers. Your designer scarves can be made into the following shapes: standard square, large square, wrap scarf or shawl and rectangle scarf. If you would like to see examples of each of these styles, please click through to the preview page.

Do you have warmer scarves available for winter?

As well as the Custom Silk Scarves, which come in multiple lightweight and drapy fabrics, we also make several other, slightly thicker personalised scarves, which would be suitable for colder weather. The Custom Fleece Scarf is handmade from 2 layers of custom printed fleece, or you could design your own neck tube scarf, which can be styled in 19 different ways.

Are there hemming options available for the scarves?

We finish the edges with a hemming style of your choice, either baby hem or 3-thread overlock. Baby hem uses 8mm of material on each side, folded twice then a top stitch approximately 2-3mm from the edge. The 3 thread overlock trims off 3mm fabric, and has an overlock edge stitch. Due to the delicate nature of these beautiful fabrics, hems can be slightly wavy, but this adds to the authenticity.
