FRENCKENBERGER X VMC

CASHMERE METATRON SCARF

When Johnny Depp introduced Terry-Ann and Nathalie from FRENCKENBERGER to Victoria Mary Clarke , wife of Shane MacGowan , at the Zurich Film Festival last year , the two straightforward cashmere girls were captured by Victoria ’ s channelling angel talks . Her inspiring way of looking at life gave a reason for an automatic collaboration between them .
FRENCKENBERGER rising from a Rick Owens background and Victoria ’ s above-earth rock & roll attitude , melted together in the Metatron scarf .
The 160x180 hand woven and screen painted cashmere scarf presents the angel of awakening ( 70 limited and hand numbered A edition pieces ).
Victoria is a believer in angels . She said : “ The angels may be real or they may be a figment of my imagination , but the angel images that I paint act like powerful symbols of love and wisdom and joy for me , they lift my spirits and make me feel guided and supported and safe , and it ’ s so abundant that it overflows and I want other people to feel it too . The angel scarves are a tangible , sensual manifestation of the feelings , and a way to spread them around the place so that other people can get a taste of this feeling . I felt the gorgeous softness and lightness of the FRENCKENBERGER cashmere , it seemed completely perfect to combine their fabric with my angel images , so that we have a piece of heaven that you can actually wrap around your head and shoulders like an embrace , which feels so blissful that maybe you even smile at strangers and help them to feel the angel vibe too .”
The FRENCKENBERGER x VMC cashmere angel scarf is available from Maxfield LA , Ikram Chicago , SSENSE online , The Corner Berlin , MAX Aspen , Amarees LA and Victoria Mary Clarke Angels .
Retail price approx . £ 854
