although, having thought of it, H used to come up with many more colorways difficult to resist back in 2008-09. it was literally impossible to pick one. now i sometimes struggle to find what works for me - and even if i like many designs, sometimes i end up with nada - because of CW. anyone had the same?



Yes, I notice online that there may only be 4 cws for a SS 2016 design, like Bonnes Vibrations, for example. Then there are a good number for Maitres de la Foret and Under the Waves. It seems like H is perhaps pushing particular designs by increasing the cw's? But I think to a degree they've always done this. Which is why ebay and other resellers are useful; to locate that scarce cw.

Not sure. I do know that there are often CWs that never appear on the web site, and then I might see in a boutique. Also, I know different countries may order different CWs. Sometimes, suddenly an unseen CW may pop up on h.com ! Then there are printed mousselines. Don't appear in the scarf booklet at all. This year very few Cws visible on any of the web site.
 
I can't figure out if it's this or whether I've just slowed down and am able to resist more especially bc I may already have a similar cw in a different design so I control myself.

Probably both !!! LOL you were very good exercising restraint in Vegas :graucho:(thinking of that green shawl)

Yes, I've noticed that too. There have been several times, in recent years, that I loved a design but none of the colorways worked for me and so I wasn't able to buy it.

YES! for me the most recent examples that come to mind were 'Arbre du Vent' and 'Collectiones Imperiales', and almost all maxi twillies except the first issue. CSGM are more problematic for me in terms of finding a suitable color BTW.

You know, when I first started buying CSGMs I thought the same as you, I tried not to buy them in similar colours. Now I have come to the conclusion that I should buy only the colorways that suit me, which are blues, greens, purples/dark reds and some pinks. The times I have bought other colorways I always ended taking them back or selling them. I think we all have favourite colours, which are those that suit our complexions best, so I find it perfectly alright to buy more or less always the same colorways!

we learn with our collections growing what works best and what to avoid, I guess. The same is true for me, never mind I have so many blues. I still end up wearing blues more often than other scarves from my drawer :smile1:

These posts were so interesting to me ~ I buy 90cm silks and GMs only with the thought that they coordinate back to my Bs/Ks, that way I am sure they are a fit in my closet and with my outfits. :heart:

They are going overboard with mish -mash designs , so many next season.
I suppose I should get my head around the tying possibilities which will be many , but the weird messiness of the designs makes me feel dizzy .:upsidedown:

I agree completely. Enough already with the mashups.

The horse scarf in the bottom right on picture 4 is the one that they were selling as a special edition at fsh when I was there. Tied it was incredibly boring.

What's going on? Is it just me? I'm not seeing much that I like at all. The colorful on the bottom left in picture 2 might be neat tied. But that's all. [emoji15]

It sometimes takes me forever, to get round to liking something. It's never happened with mishmash , Carré en Carrés was the first I saw and although MaitAi makes it look OK, it will never please me.
If only I could know at the time what I'll like in the future ! Some that went from loathe to love ; la Femme aux Semmelles du Vent [ yes, really!] Parures des Maharajahs, Beloved India, Magic Kelly , Please Check In etc etc

From current collection, so in time for nabbing one : Under the Waves when I tried it on I realised it was wonderful!
