Hello All! Long weekend here where I am and excited to start the week with C for Cathy Latham and one of her designs also starting with C: “Confort en Automobile”
Story behind the scarf:
Ready to leave? In front of the steps, the car roars and it is Madame who is driving! The scene takes place in the 1920s, in the midst of female emancipation. And to contribute to this new freedom, Hermès has imagined practical and elegant clothing and accessories. Trunks, scarves, gloves, bags and hats are part of the trip. Assembled by Cathy Latham, these advertisements reveal the perfect range of the modern traveler.
This scarf is also an homage to the Bolide. Launched in 1923, the Bolide is the first bag to use the zipper closure.
Here, 101 years later: scarf complements my Bolide on Wheels, paired with H gloves, Hat and Vest….
“Too much H in one outfit,” you might say? I think not, because there are no screaming logos here….
