From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2017/18 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Panorama universel de la haute carrosserie et sellerie, Exposition universelle de Londres en 1851, par Guillon. This composition is inspired by a grandly named volume in the mile Hermes collection. In the mid 19th century. French and international carriage designs were particularly dynamic and inventive, combining aesthetic appeal and technical innovation. At the London World's Fair of 1851, for example, a Paris workshop presented a modular carriage, and a coupé whose protective rain-hood could be raised or lowered at the press of a button. Convertible carriages were in vogue in France at the time, as evidenced by the ancestors of the soft-top car seen here, surrounding a central motif inspired by a caned panel, an effect often used at the time to decorate the body of the carriage.
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.
