Besos Scarves is a part of Besos, an online shop that specialises in selling quality scarves, combining their own brand with enthralling designs from around the world. Today, their own collection, Besos Scarves, features a variety of pieces made from 100 per cent natural materials such as cashmere, silk, wool and merino. “Our style is characterised by stylish looks with discrete details. We combine elegance with something casual, aimed at customers who value high quality,” explains Helle Sæthre, who founded Besos in 2012. Since then the online shop has grown into an international phenomena that only settles for the best. “Besos is not dictated by fashion. Our scarves are made with the customers’ wellbeing in
mind and we value quality and will continue to do so regardless of fashion trends,” says Sæthre. Besos’ online shop offers customers an excellent service with worldwide fast deliveries, and orders are being placed all over Europe, even as far away as Australia and Japan. “The popularity of our scarves have really caught on, in Denmark as well as abroad. People like their uniqueness. We never mass-produce anything, each piece is one of its own, often with handmade details,” explains Sæthre, who will soon get Besos ready for the Chinese market. With a growing interest in Danish design, Besos Scarves are slowly claiming new territories. So get ready for the invasion.
