Scarf designer Mona Sultan is utilizing her degree in Graphic Design and her love of fabric to create wearable pieces of art. Originally from Syria, Sultan inherited a fascination with textiles from her mother (who worked as a seamstress). Her curiosity was further indulged when she moved west and enrolled in Emily Carr University, studying the traditional printing techniques that would later be applied to her luxury scarf line. A combination of nostalgia and contemporary design, Sultan’s scarves have graced the pages of our Made-in-Vancouver gift guide and now Sultan shares with us what’s on her holiday wish list.What’s on your Christmas list this year?A floatation session at Metta Rest Spa, it’s my new favourite thing!
