Meet the Metropolis Bandana: our favourite way to play with the Metropolis colour stories. We paired a graphic three-colour linen stitch with a polished i-cord edge for a look that’s all about texture and tone. It’s an elongated triangle that sits just right around the neck. It’s simple, intentional, and made to be worn.
