Thank you, chaneladdict, love it too

 

[chaneladdict]

did anyone buy the Scarf Book that Hermes recently published??? It's wonderful!!!!

 

[Mai Tai]

I agree with you, chaneladdict, it is a fabulous book! It features around 150 scarves and is about the history, mystique, design and the philosophy on coloring of Hermès scarves.

For anyone who would like to see sample pages, please check the link below, I have uploaded around 30 double pages onto my blog.

My favourite Hermès scarf is Les Cles in the deep chocolate brown. I absolutely love it!

 

[Mai Tai]

It is a wonderful classic, a fabulous scarf indeed.

Any recommendations for scarfes, that are suitable for men?

I love Hermes scarves, however they aren't the most masculine. Two fall season's ago in their catalogue, they showed silk scarves twisted in between cashmere losanges and mufflers. It looked really great, you can pick up on the bright colours without it being just a silk scarf.

I purchased the Les Cles scarf, and I twisted it in between a light grey Hermes cashmere scarf.

That's a really great idea, I am always looking for ways to wear my growing collection

I think my next one will be one of the Quadrige...I went back and forth between that and the new springs..chose the new springs and wish I had just gotten both!

 

[chaneladdict]

and does anybody know what scarf it is that Peggy receives on Mad Men from Duck?(if anyone has seen that episode)

 

[chaneladdict]

Mai Tai, your blog is amazing. Your style is the style I aspire to! So gorgeous.!!

thejarc IMO the matte finish of the vintage silk in the 70 Carrés, and the Dip Dye versions of the 90s are beautiful mens scarves. In the 70 format, H has designs which are particularly for men. But some of the standart 70s work for both, men and woman, such as the Pique Sellier, which is gorgeous (and masculine) in the storm grey CW. The 70 cotton Carrés are another option, as featured in the attached pages of the current LeMonde catalog. And then there are Lozanges and Pocket squares. Good luck!

Isn't this is more often than not the outcome of H shopping dilemmas, dear chaneladdict! Congrats on the 'New Springs', it is such a cool and fabulous take on a classic. I'm a big fan of the Quadrige too, it is one of my favorites.

Happy to hear you enjoy my blog, and many thanks for the lovely compliment

Oh, and I have not seen the episode you have mentioned, but if you happen to have a screen shot, please post.
