Product Details

Zelda Sayre (later Zelda Fitzgerald) sought to actively flout convention and society’s expectations of Southern women in the early 20th century. This pretty crescent shawl seems demure with its feminine lace border, yet breaks the rules by deviating slightly from the symmetrical shaping of a traditional garter, crescent shawl. The changes in shaping aren’t immediately noticeable, just enough to appeal to your inner “wild child.”
