Back in February we shot the lookbook for our upcoming Polar collection - a series of scarves inspired by Arctic explorers and a trip Emma made to the Polar Museum in Cambridge. The collection is yet to be launched, however we thought we'd give you a sneak preview of what went on behind the scenes on the great day we spent shooting the collection! Note: it involves plenty of hair glitter and fierce wind machines...

So if that's given you a little taste of what to expect from the Emma J Shipley team in the next couple of months, we suggest you keep up-to-date by following us on Twitter and Facebook for lots of exciting announcements about the brand new selection of Polar scarves. And don't forget to subscribe to our mailing list too! We can't wait to launch the collection...
