Why I Love This Pattern: Wow, wow, wow. Sometimes you don’t have to know anything about Hermes scarves to know that one is special (even grail status) - the artistry speaks for itself. Aline Honore's design, showcasing 14 intricately ornamented elements of samurai armor, beautifully connects art and tradition. At the center is a stunning suit of armor crafted from bronze, iron, gold, silk, and lacquer, an extraordinary creation of the Myochin school, reserved for a daïmio during the Edo period. And what is incredible, even beyond that, is these are real pieces that are preserved at the Ann & Gabriel Barbier‑Mueller Museum in Dallas Texas. This private collection of samurai armor has been curated by the art‑collecting family, the Barbier-Muellers and it consists of nearly a thousand pieces making it one of the largest of its kind in the world.

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.
