Chestnutty, are you referring to Karnak or CeI? I think you're asking about CeI (bc Jessica posted her Chasse, right?) Karnak is a changeant, but i don't think hopiko's Chasse is, according to the tags. The first color would read two colors, if changeant, right? Correct me if I'm wrong (anyone)... :)

I believe Chasse en Inde is a changent! Isn't bleu gris two colours- blue + grey?

Thank you so much Hopiko! I was hoping for a closer look at this cw. Do you think it's a changeante?
Debating between this one and the green one that Jessica posted a few pages ago. :thinkin:

Chestnutty I have both cws of CeI. They are so very different ! hopiko's is a wonderful greyish parme with blue accents and bordeaux contrasting hem. A very delicate combinations of colours and classy look. The vert jaune bleu vert is refreshing and joyful, very luminous colours the changeant is more pronounced. I will take side by side comparison shots for you later :-)

Gorgeous! Twins with you and hopiko on the purple cw. This has been a sleeper hit for me as I was never a fan of CeI. I'm eyeing the pink/purple cw as well. Such a delightful print for a mousseline stole and the colourways are just fabulous!

Thank you ms piggy :-) the pink is beautiful too. I've seen it IRL 3 days ago along with a beige CeI (available on Hermes.com Europe). the pink is very delicate with accents of colours underlying the design. Very summery. In contrast and although I usually love neutrals the beige stole appeared a little dull

Ok, so Bonnie, I guess you knew what was in my future! And as you requested, here is the CdK that I picked up on Friday (I believe that I am twins with D. Lee on this one!) It is a changeant but the colors are high contrast so the effect is not as evident in this one. I love the way it ties.

Your chevaux de Karnak is a dream hopiko !

Awwww thank you so much ayala_jessica. This is extremely helpful! Even though now I still can't decide :D. The purple one is versatile to dress either up or down, but the green is so fresh and happy!
This mousseline season is so "bad"!!! Fingers crossed that the Peuple du Vent and Guepards mousseline (Fall '13 collection) will arrive late next year so that my money tree can recover.

I agree, ms piggy, I'm not a fan of CeI as it has men with riffles in it and I hate violence. But repetitive patterns are my weak spot - they tie very well.

I too was not a fan of CeI and then I bought the mousse(s), and to me they are a really "feel good" stole to wear...............it is very happy, easy and light. I had posted a picture of the brown (I guess) with the pink border, and it is quite lovely.

As I see in the pictures recently posted, there is the purple (which is beautiful) the green (I do not have) and the turquoise - which I would love to find......Can anyone confirm that the turquoise is vert, jaune,blue vert? 04?

Thank you, and the Cheveaux is exquisite!

jp_536 - I meant the CeI. It occurs to me that most cw of CeI are changeants, except cw 3(pink/orange).
Also, in the last few seasons, their tags often do not specify changeante or not, which is a bit inconvenient when ordering. For example, my 2011 blue Mosaique au 24's tag doesn't say changeante and say only Bleu lac/Marine, but the shawl does have a turquoise sheen. Same year 2011, a blue Jardins d'Armenie stole I saw on eBay does specify "changeante". :upsidedown: it baffles me to no end!

Thx hopiko! I have been buying moussies for 4/5 months & I have accumulated 9 already!:nuts: At this rate of purchase, I was worried I could have dozens in no time! Thank God this season is a very exceptional bumper season. So next season I could expect a 'normal' yield of one or two. That would be much gentler on my purse!:smile1:

IMO, F/W '13 carres are not too attractive like FW '12, so I think I have some room for other formats like cashmere or mousseline. So, let's say I'll end up with only one or two 90cm (btw, wishful thinking :noworry:), then I will feel less guilty for buying both CeI :whistle:.

also, for what it is worth I think there are more than 2 CW's in pink. One is "raspberry" background, and then there is the coral.................someone posted the "raspberry" and as I remember it looked quite lovely and soft....................

We are twins on the gorgeous CeI, love this!

I also enabled my sister on a gorgeous BoA sea green/blue cw. Will try to sneak a few pics! I have been buying moussies for more than 10 years and this is the best season I can remember, EVER. :)
Click to expand...

What is BoA? I would love to see it...............I love all those sea green, turquoise, colors..........especially in a moussie..............it must feel so wonderful to wear.........I have reached the point where it doesn't matter if it is a changeant...............if I like the color (and I likes me). Ten years of moussies, WOWO! I have just started...........great work! thanks

Some info, on this thread the "raspberry" CeI was posted on 7/14 by our dear Hiyopura picture 3112 (would love the number and CW #) and then Dear Ayala posted vert jaune blue vert CW 04 picture 3118. I would love to have the entire number of both since I love both. However I do not know where one would find them............they seem to be elusive. Best, me............

I am having a mini-hissy fit - I am getting trouble about using my Hermes credit - something that I am not physically in the store..................isn't this supposed to be a central computerized system?

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
