Martine and Jacques Bijvoet are behind the Moismont label, which is based in Picardy, France. With their fashion, the two are committed to authenticity, traditions and values.

After all, the original scarf (which we understand to be worn more like a stole) once found its way from the Indian subcontinent to Europe.
