From The Hermès Fall-Winter 2012/13 Seasonal Scarf Booklet: Antoine Trappf, passionate about Native American culture, presents a new portrait here. It is the middle of the 18th century. This is the face of a proud Northeast Prairie Indian woman. She belongs to the Osages tribe. Honoured here is the universe (Ni) of women (Wa'Ko). Everything surrounding her reflects the beliefs and know-how ofher people. The painted skins and hairstyle decorated with dyed porcupine quills are the work of women. Thunderbirds and water panthers watch over the corners of the composition. The former are the masters of the skies, rains and thunderstorms; the latter, creatures of the underwater and underground world, bring about storms and earthquakes.

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.
