From The Hermès Spring-Summer 1997 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: In Africa, more than elsewhere, rhythm determines everything. Whether in Zaire, Kenya, Nigeria or Gabon, the tautened skins of the drums, accompanied by harps, lyres, gongs and bells, re-sound from one village to another, recounting, from time immemorial, the song of the cricket and the flight of the birds, the course of the river and the turning of the seasons. It is like the beating of a heart, as mighty as this continent: its pulse bewitches us.
Size Guide
- Twilly: small but mighty, use it like a typical scarf, as a bag handle, as a belt, and more.
- 45cm: this is the typical pocket square size, will fit around the neck like a bandana.
- 55cm: this is the bandana size typically printed in 3 colors to look like a traditional bandana.
- 70cm: this is a great option for petites and they are typically made out of a lighter weight silk than any of the other formats.
- 90cm: this is the classic Hermès scarf size. It's very versatile and if you're looking at any vintage photos, this is the scarf size that's worn.
- 140cm: the largest size of the bunch, almost reaching 5 ft. It's hard to capture the scale in photos but these are incredible as a lightweight shawl in the summer, or folded for a warmer feel in the winter.
- Shawls & Other Sizes: there are a few styles that Hermès does not make every season which are just as lovely and fit into this category.
