From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2018/19 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: "Fantasy alphabet, cut-out blue and red leather" is how these letters from the early 1930s were itemised in the house's registers. Very early on, Hermes started offering its customers the chance to personalise bags, luggage and even clothing. This skill was a continuation of its first métier as a harness-maker and saddler, at a time when horses' harnesses, blankets and hoods were marked with the initials of their owners. Typography therefore became one of the house designers' fields of excellence. The lively, stylised characters of this Art Deco alphabet have lost none of their appeal.
Why I Love This Size
The 70cm format is actually my favorite out of all the sizes. I find it small enough where I’m not overwhelmed by fabric, but big enough when I can still do a few fancier knots. The 70cm also uses a lighter weight silk than any of the other sizes, which gives it a casual effortless look. I always recommend this size for petites as well, it’s almost a petite version of a 90cm. But even if you’re taller it works perfectly too.
