DANA XU100% Mulberry Satin Silk Summer Travel Scarf Extra Large Women Floral Shawl Oversize Soft Wraps For Evening Dresses

This scarf is better than I imagined it would be!Such beautiful, saturated, rich colors and clear, vibrant, pattern designs. Unbelievably light weight yet folds flat to a tiny little square. Ultra buttery soft! The size is perfect for so many alternate ways to wear this! Full coverage as a swim cover up halter dress and a maxi skirt on a 5’11” size 10-12 (USA) woman! It’s so elegant that I will wear it as a scarf for formal evening events too! Perfect for our dream anniversary trip to Italy next year!! This is really a great buy - higher quality than the bargain price suggests.

The media could not be loaded. This is so pretty. Came nicely packaged. Could definitely gift it. Great length and width makes it versatile. Feels soft and light. Makes me feel fancy. Is it worth $40??? I’m not sure. I don’t have much knowledge of real silk, so I don’t know but the tag says 100% silk. I love the way it feels and looks. The pattern and colors are exactly as pictured. Feels Mediterranean to me. Could be used as a summer top (I tried several of the styles I saw on Pinterest and they looked good. Plenty of fabric.) also great as a shawl and tied as a scarf. Will use for all seasons! The sheen on this is flattering. Bounces off light nicely. This was a splurge for me. Normally $25 is my max on scarves, but this one is by FAR the biggest one I have, like double so felt fair to pay $40. Probably a bargain to some. It definitely does not look or feel cheap. I could see this at the fancy department store in Paris I was just at last month costing $150 easy and people would pay it, unless they’re just looking for a certain brand. Anyway, I feel fancy and upscale wearing it. Everything from jeans to a nice dinner paired with dresses, tanks, skirts as a scarf or pashmina or shawl or shirt.

Beautiful

To get the negative out of the way first: I intensely dislike being lied to by any seller. The claim that these scarves are 100% mulberry silk is a straight up lie: that they cost between $18.99 and $36.99 (with up to 10% discounts on some) should clue us in immediately; with what mulberry silk would cost in manufacture, to make a profit, they would have to charge at least twice the price of the more expensive scarves. However, I now totally get the reason that an overwhelming majority of shoppers simply don't care about the exact content of the fabric, and remain loyal to this brand--they are selling beautifully designed and rendered scarves at a price point that is appropriate to what they actually are.There IS likely some silk content along with the nylon; enough, for example, to create the pleasing shimmer of the fabric, which does not refract light across the spectrum the complex way that 100% silk does, but which is a very pretty uniform white sheen. There is also likely enough silk content to lend the fabric a nice hand that warms to the touch--without going point by point, I will just say that all in all, this is a great fake--not for 100% Chinese mulberry silk--but for a lesser quality of silk. If the scarf is to be gifted, honesty is going to continue to be my policy, but these scarves are going to need the delicate treatment anyway: cool water/gentle fabric cleanser handwashing and drip dry--no wringing out. The scarf I chose seems unfortunately to be currently out of stock, but I do hope they bring it back, and will comment on it just in case they do: a floral pattern in a medley of shades of green and touches of red and burgundy. Red and green might sound a little funky or Christmassy, but it doesn't come off this way--it has a spring-to-summer appeal: the floral design has a William Morris-inspired vibe of design perfection to the smallest detail, of repeating buds, blooms, and wandering thorned vines (Redbubble has great examples in bedding, clothing and a variety of accessories--including scarves--but though they have excellent products worth discovery, I seriously doubt their (honestly represented) polyester scarves can match the quality of Dana Xu). I have not yet tried any Dana Xu scarves of "100% fine wool" (claim is wool of Australian origin), but having experienced the quality of the "silk," I definitely plan to buy more of those, and would be willing to try out the wool version, which I will of course review ;)

Very pretty and love the large size

The most beautiful scarf, it goes with many outfits, nice for the price!

Although pretty, these are NOT silk.

A beautiful, ethereal silk scarf. Large enough to wrap around you or drape in other ways. Beautiful colors. I love it!
