SILK SCARVES
LE CHÂLE BLEU X GAÂLA
Behind Le Châle Bleu hides Ania Axenova, a passionate illustrator whose love for drawing and for reading led to the creation of the brand of silk carrés, shawls, bandanas and other scarves, all telling stories. That's why every Le Châle Bleu creation - drawn entirely by hand - is accompanied by a short tale written by Ania.
ABOUT LE CHÂLE BLEU
This desire to tell stories is reflected in another of Le Châle Bleu's distinctive traits: its illustrations remain “readable” even when worn, making each piece much more than a simple "painting-scarf". The artist imagines and constructs each design with future foldings in mind, which is also why the design runs around its frame. So no matter how you fold your scarf, nothing is ever upside down, making your accessory a living tale, a story-to-wear.
The Moon Butterfly story told by Ania for the Le Châle Bleu x Gaâla collaboration is a colorful ode to femininity and lightness, but also to courage and the pursuit of stars.
THE DRAWING
Imagine yourself in an enchanted garden, gazing up at the sky, surrounded by waving grasses, magnificent flowers and tall trees. Colorful Butterflies dance in a golden haze of stardust. Unveil a new corner of the magical garden with each new fold of your scarf, revealing or hiding the beautiful Moon as you wish. And so that your scarf not only brings you joy, but also becomes your lucky charm, a little ladybug and a four-leaf clover have been hidden by the artist in its design.
Like all scarves created by Le Châle Bleu, its design tells a story, an original tale written by the artist to accompany it. The Moon Butterfly by Le Châle Bleu and Gaâla is a story of magic, endless curiosity and the courage to pursue your dreams.
The design of this scarf was created entirely by hand.

STORY
“Once upon a time there were Butterflies. Our story begins at the dawn of time, when the world was young and everything, absolutely everything was still possible.
During long sunny days, butterflies twirled from flower to flower, serene witnesses of the emergence of this new world. When the darkness of the night enveloped them, they humbly folded their wings to fall asleep.
But there were dreamers among them:” – discover the whole story in the little booklet accompanying your scarf.
