From The Hermès Spring-Summer 2020 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Della Cavalleria is one of the most extraordinary treaties in equestrian history. Written by Georg Engelhard von Löhneysen, it was published in Bavaria in the very early 17th century.Conserved in the mile Hermes collection and illustrated with baroque engravings, it notably presents a series of German sleighs that feature fabulous creatures and richly ornamented horses. Playing with these pairings, the artist takes the extravagance further and assembles teams of horses and chimeric monsters, humorously giving a racquet to one, a yo-yo or a diabolo to another, creating outlandish visual combinations worthy of a game of exquisite corpse. This season, the design is presented in a new double-sided version.
From The Hermès Spring-Summer 2018 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Della Cavalleria is one of the most extraordinary treatises in the history of riding. Written by Georg Engelhard von Löhneysen, it was published in Bavaria at the beginning of the seventeenth century. This work, preserved in the mile Hermes collection, is illustrated by Baroque engravings that depict, among other things, German sleighs drawn by fabulous creatures and richly adorned horses. Playing with these parties, the designer pushes the extravagance even further, creating a collage of hybrid creatures with the bodies and heads of horses and mythical beasts. And because in 2018 Hermès celebrates the theme of games, Virginie Jamin has wittingly handed a racket to one, a yoyo to another and a diabolo to vet another - creating bizarre associations worthy of a game of "consequences".
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.
