Artists' Scarves

Maison Malfroy incorporates original artwork from painters into its scarf collections.
The works are reproduced using high-quality digital printing to faithfully preserve the details and colors of each piece. At times, Malfroy develops color variations in close collaboration with the artists.

The artworks are printed on various silk fabrics—such as twill, pongee, or chiffon—as well as on wool-silk blends. We offer both square scarves and long scarves in a range of sizes. Discover the artists we collaborate with.

Malin Gyllensvaan 

Malin Gyllensvaan is a textile designer and illustrator based in Stockholm, known for her intricate floral, animal and botanical patterns. Combining gouache and graphite pencil, she creates lush, ethereal works that evoke a sense of calm and wonder. Her inspiration is drawn from vintage botanical illustrations and the Arts and Crafts movement.

Lulu La Nantaise

Lulu La Nantaise est une illustratrice au style graphique vif et expressif. Elle travaille avec des lignes franches, des aplats de couleurs et une vraie énergie dans le trait. Son univers s’inspire des affiches des années 50, avec un goût marqué pour les compositions percutantes.

Elle aime créer des personnages au tempérament facétieux et adore glisser des jeux de mots dans ses images, tout en jouant avec les lettrages.

Lil Sire

Lil Sire has developed a dreamy, colorful visual universe, drawing inspiration from a range of artistic movements such as Art Nouveau and Japanese prints. The harmony of colors lies at the heart of her work; to achieve this, she paints primarily in gouache. This traditional technique allows her to create bright, intense hues such as ultramarine blue, cobalt, ruby red, and Veronese green.

Lil Sire approaches the world with a sense of wonder—she loves telling stories and transporting the viewer into her poetic imagination, filled with all kinds of animals where nature reigns supreme.

Caroline RD

Caroline Romain Desfossés is a painter and illustrator. Her work, largely inspired by nature and still life, is distinguished by her hand-drawn lines, bold and vibrant colors, and an abundance of intricate details. Gouache is her medium of choice.

Alain Thomas

Alain Thomas is a contemporary French painter from Nantes. He is widely regarded as the leading figure of the naïve primitive art movement.

For over 50 years, he has painted with naturalistic precision, crafting vibrant worlds where animals take center stage. His work is characterized by vivid colors, stylized forms, simple lines, and recurring patterns, creating dreamlike scenes and fantastical characters.

He has also illustrated several children's stories.

We are proud to collaborate with Alain Thomas to create scarf collections that transport you into his unique universe!

Malfroy is proud to have included Thuy’s scarves in its collections since 2016, producing and distributing them internationally.

Anne du Planty

Originally from northern France, Anne du Planty has been painting since a very young age — “always with a brush in hand.” She studied at the École d’Art Déco in Belgium, then at the École des Beaux-Arts in Roubaix to become an interior architect.

Anne du Planty affirmed her artistic talent while traveling through the south of France, Spain, and especially Italy. She draws inspiration from everyday life, filling her travel sketchbooks with spontaneous scenes captured in Venice, Florence, Naples, Cuba, India, and Southeast Asia.

These moments later inspire her to create sensitive works that radiate an authentic atmosphere.

Today, Anne du Planty works from her attic studio in Paris. Her paintings take us on a journey and evoke a soothing sense of serenity.

Her works are joyful and optimistic — their warm, carefully chosen colors speak directly to the heart.
