From The Hermès Spring-Summer 1997 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: « A propos de bottes » is an old French saying meaning "with-out a serious purpose". But do we always have to be serious and must there always be a purpose? To raise our lives to the dignity of art, let us cultivate a light-hearted fancy which leads us to the heart of things. This play-fulness, however, does not rule out meticulous attention to detail, especially when it involves the transcription on to silk of the intricate engraving of a very fine study of boots.
Why I Love This Size
The size 45cm is so underrated. It’s small, but mighty. It gives more of a casual bandana look when styled with the triangle in the front. Or when styled in a bias fold, more of an understated French look.
