This bulk lot features a variety of designer handkerchiefs, pocket squares, and small scarves from prestigious labels including Versace, Nina Ricci, Austin Reed, Lanvin, and Dior. The collection includes a Versace yellow silk-style scarf with ornate gold baroque scrollwork and a central crest. Nina Ricci pieces include a dark grey windowpane check, a cream-colored handkerchief with a tulip floral print, and a pinkish-taupe textured solid with a black border and embroidered monogram. Also included is an Austin Reed olive green and white polka dot square with a gold-tone border and a tan Lanvin handkerchief featuring an embroidered JL monogram. Other items in the lot display geometric teal prints, multi-color stripes, and abstract motifs. Materials consist primarily of cotton and silk or silk-blends. Dimensions: approximately 18 inches to 20 inches square.
Designer handkerchiefs and pocket squares are a quietly specialized collecting category - the Versace Medusa, Nina Ricci, and Lanvin examples in this lot represent three distinct chapters of European luxury fashion in a format that is both functional and historically significant. The pocket square as a fashion accessory is currently experiencing a significant revival in menswear, and vintage examples from named houses in good condition are actively sought by style-conscious buyers.
