Ann Taylor Pashmina Scarf – International Women’s Day

In honor of International Women’s Day on March 8, Ann Taylor will be offering a new Pashmina Scarf, hand-spun by women in a remote community in the Indian Himalayas who have mastered the artful process of collecting pashmina wool, hand-spinning yarn, and individually dying each piece.
The women who created the scarf are beneficiaries of Ann Taylor’s 100K women commitment, a project that provides the opportunity for women in this village to develop job skills and live full lives every day, providing for themselves and for their families.
Through the Responsibly ANN commitment, Ann Taylor is dedicated to empowering 100,000 women in their global supply chain community by providing health and financial education, giving women all over the world the opportunity to reach their full potential.

The Pashmina Scarf ($128) is made from 100% Pashmina and will be available in Off-White, Pale Grey and Rose Mist. It can be purchased at AnnTaylor.com beginning March 1 and will also be available at select retail locations.
