Description
The hand-painted “Venecia” foulard is an exclusive piece from the Marilín collection, crafted in natural satin Georgette silk, known for its delicate transparency and beautiful drape. As a natural material, it feels light, fresh and soft against the skin.
Each foulard is unique, the result of a meticulous craftsmanship in the workshop of Margaret de Arcos. From the initial sketch to the hand-painting on silk, through steam-setting, ironing and the final hand-sewn finishing, every step is done by hand to ensure exceptional quality.
Lightweight and versatile, it has no front or back, allowing you to wear it in multiple waysand adapt it effortlessly to your style. It’s a refined touch for moments that call for understated elegance.
Its design captures the essence of the city of canals: a stylized gondola glides through abstract reflections in shades of burgundy, rose, and seafoam green. Fluid, organic shapes suggest the movement of water, creating a serene, artistic, and deeply Venetian atmosphere.
Inspired by the honeymoon journey of Camila Puya de Arcos’s grandparents in the spring of 1953, the Marilín collection is filled with romance, refinement and vintage-inspired design that capture the spirit of an unforgettable voyage across the Mediterranean.

My visit to the workshop of Margaret de Arcos: It was my friend Rocío, a Sevillian with whom I share experiences here in the Netherlands, who first told me about this artisanal brand. After an initial conversation with Ángelo, the commercial director, I had the chance to visit their beautiful workshop in the heart of Seville.
The moment I stepped inside, I was immersed in a space full of colour and creativity—every corner reflected a true passion for silk and design. I was especially struck by the craftsmanship with which Camila creates each piece, expressing quiet luxury and natural elegance. Over coffee, it was inspiring to hear the brand’s story firsthand and learn about their current projects. I left the studio with a fan and a foulard from the Floral collection—its vibrant greens, blues, and yellows still remind me of that visit.
Now I’m trying to decide which piece to choose from the Marilín collection.
