We’ve modelled the size and weight after our favourite vintage French scarves to create chic, easy to wear designs for every day use. Wear them wrapped once around the neck, tucked in to a jacket, or tied in the hair. Crafted from soft viscose, the fabric is a lighter, airier weight than our kimonos, with the same beautifully soft feel.

About the Print:

We’ll always be Daydream believers here at Market of Stars! Born from our love of romance and whimsy, The Daydreamer is a print that feels as though it wandered out of a fairytale. Created using an exquisite hand-coloured etching from the 1880s called The Bower of Roses, it depicts a woman who has drifted into sleep in a grassy nook where roses climb and spill overhead. An open book of poetry rests with her, as if she slipped into dreams mid-verse. Around her, the world softens—ribbons flutter from a pair of delicate ballet slippers, and a charming family of rabbits from an antique lithograph watch over her slumber with quiet curiosity. The trim is edged with painted roses circa 1800 (borrowed from an antique dressing screen found in New York) adding a whisper of old-world charm. Rendered in lush tones of chartreuse and deep teal, with bright pink roses scattered like dreams, The Daydreamer carries the magic of a story half-remembered—romantic, serene, and touched with the enchantment of a Sleeping Beauty dream. 

100% viscose (derived from plant fibres such as wood and bamboo). Handwash, hang to dry.

68cm x 155cm.

Our Muse

The dreamer, the enchanted heart. Women who drift between worlds, who find magic in the pause between a page and a dream. Women who wake as if kissed by a story. 

More Inspo

For centuries, artists and storytellers have been fascinated by the image of the sleeping maiden—a figure suspended between waking and dreaming. From the enchanted princess in Sleeping Beauty to the slumbering heroines painted by the Pre-Raphaelites, these scenes captured something deeply romantic: the idea that dreams are a threshold where imagination, memory, and magic meet. In the 19th century especially, painters and illustrators often depicted their muses resting in lush gardens amongst flowers and fountains, surrounded by books and the quiet company of nature. Sleep in these works was not idleness, but a kind of creative wandering—a moment when the mind drifts into stories yet to be written. In The Daydreamer, our sleeping figure seems to inhabit that same enchanted pause, where poetry slips from the page into the landscape around her and the world itself becomes a dream waiting to unfold. Step softly into her bower of roses, and you may find yourself drifting there too 😉
