Tag Archives: white collars

Last February, we noticed several women at fashion shows wearing white lacy collars, often against black. It was one of Ruth Bader Ginsberg’s most recognizable visual signifiers. The wearers were not just Americans, but women from all over Europe and Asia, many of whom were professionals who had left families behind for a week or more to attend the shows. There are also many tributes to the collar coming up now, everywhere from Instagram posts to knitting patterns on Ravelry. You could go the designer route or even find a few collars on Etsy if you tried – a democratic approach that would suit the inspiration.
