MT TV - Le Laboratoire du Temps


The Le Laboratoire du Temps AW2012 carré was love at first sight, the design is such fun and it ties beautifully.

A total of 45 gold rimmed vignettes form the figure '8', the symbol of eternity. The vignettes are filled with references to past events and figures, real and fictional ~ Mozart playing the piano, the Big Bang, the three Musketeers, Columbus discovering America, Emile Hermès inspecting a window at FSH, the first man on the moon and many many more. Some vignettes show imagined glimpses into the future, others have just patterns. The vignettes are surrounded by whimsical time machines, and all kinds of paraphernalia which is needed for a Laboratoire du Temps!

I so much enjoy discovering all it's details. Hope you'll enjoy exploring it too.



Le Laboratoire du Temps AW 2012

Have a wonderful weekend everyone xx

    A thrilling video which I've viewed twice full screen with the sound turned up! Fascinating detail rendered in gorgeous colours - marron nocturne sounds like a rather decadent dessert.

    So pleased it was love at first sight for you: isn't it wonderful when that happens.

    I bought this carré two weeks ago and I do agree with you, it's a treasure, and this brown marron nocturne is perfect for us blond ladies! The music on your video is so fantastic ....
    Merveilleux week-end pour vous aussi.

    Dearest MaiTai, you are such an enabler!! Previous to this video post, I'd had dismissed this carre as too busy, but now seeing all the details as you've described them, made me add this scarf to the list!

    Love your new LdT scarf MaiTai - I have this on my (very short)wish list for AW12. Your video has confirmed the design is great - I can't wait to get my hands on one! Thank you for explaining the stories behind the vignettes too which adds to the glory of the scarf! Love the music on the video too! Congrats! Sa:-)
