>-Isadora was Isadora Duncan a famous star and actress from the 20's and 30's. She was known for huge, flowing scarves. But one night she was in a car when her scarf got caught on the back axel and promptly ripped her neck open, killing her. So I guess the scarf was originally white but afterwards became a nice shade of coral. A Bit like Dean Metallic red!
