Starting a new series today, 'Scarf Profiles'. Each episode features a different scarf from my collection, with detail shots, infos and a collage of my favorite ways to wear it. Starting off with Chasse en Inde. Hope you enjoy!
Artist: Michel Duchêne (orig. design in 1986)
Cotton Charm Carré (70x70cm) SS2008
What a great idea, Maitai - I'm so looking forward to enjoying all the coming scarf profiles!
ReplyDeleteOn the day of my birth, my dear grandmother started some collections for me: Chanel No 5, White Shoulders and Hermes scarves. Over the decades I've collected many Hermes scarves without knowing their names, only that I love colors and/or designs. I can tell I'm going to learn a lot from your blog, and for this I thank you in advance. As for today's scarf, 1986 was the peak of my Hermes fascination and how I missed this scarf with dangling charm is beyond me!
ReplyDeleteP.S. I am sharing links to your blog at Twitter, where I post as @ParisGetaways. Many Francophiles, Parisphiles and Hermesphiles would welcome you--join us!
Thank you for this MaiTai--only one problem for me--I'm sure there will be many scarves that will be added to my list!!! Oh well, the search is always the most fun part. Looking forward to many more posts from you>
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous!! Thank you for sharing this amazing piece with the charm, I cannot wait to see all the scarf profiles coming up <3 Being so new to H, I have so much to learn, and there is no other person I'd rather learn from :) Have to say, these colours look great on you too!
ReplyDeleteHi danse, so glad you like the idea and thanks a lot for your kind comment! :-)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my blog d! Your grandmother sounds truly amazing, how very wonderful of her to gift you with such special treasures from birth! Your collection must be stunning, I'd love to ID your scarves for you ;-) And no, you did not miss a thing in '86, the Cotton Charm Carré featured in this post is a reissue of the orig. design. The 'Charm Carrés' were only introduced last spring! Thank you for including my blog links in Twitter. I am not on Twitter yet, but your ParisGetaway sounds wonderful, thank you for the invite :-)

ReplyDeleteLooking forward to all the scarf profiles.... are you taking requests. My favourite of yours is (your least fav - how could you?) Carre Kantha. I love that scarf, the pinks inspired me and my most recent purchase was a Smelles in pink CW (tres bon!)

ReplyDeleteI have been browsing online more than 2 hours
ReplyDeletetoday, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It is pretty worth enough for me. In my view,
if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the net will be a lot
more useful than ever before.
Have a look at my weblog ... hairstyles 2010
