Thank you for alerting us to this! :ty: :flowers: I like that the colors are now becoming a bit more universal as I've noticed for the FW18 season and now SS19 season. There's colors that can be worn year round regardless of seasons, which makes it better, in my opinion. I tend to only buy silks in Spring/Summer season as those colors tend to suit me better than the darker colors for Fall/Winter but with the new coloration, it means I can probably find one or two cw that will likely suit me regardless of seasons! :biggrin:

Thank YOU for your great job!

Thank you Wen84 for posting these.

I’m sorry to be negative but the best thing about this design was the intricacy of the ropes. They dumbed it down. It could have been absolutely beautiful but it looks really dull and flat. So disappointing.
The purple/blue CW 14 speaks to me, but I would have preferred the ropes to be more than blank space. And I am afraid how the white will hold up next to the dark colors when being hand washed.
Maybe there will be more in these colors...

Agree. If they use that color scheme in a different design I might find something that I like. None of the other color schemes will work for me. This design is a no go for me in any colorway. Glad I finally bought the 90.

I am so disappointed, you're absolutely right. The purple one attracts me because of the colors, but as for this iteration of the design - I think it worked better in the gavroche size. I'm so sad, but I guess my wallet is safe. :sad:

Also, wow, I can't believe something from this season is online already!
 
With apologies to anyone who loves the newest iteration of this design, I see this trend toward oversimplification as a thinly veiled attempt to cut costs. Repeating designs season after season, reducing the number of screens and dyes, and increasing prices on various products results in the record-breaking profits that Hermès posts quarter after quarter. I know that many appreciate a “fresh take” on a classic design, but I personally have never found a silk re-mix that exceeded the beauty of the original. I sometimes wonder, what’s next?

I wonder how the artists feel about them doing this to their design. I would be very offended.

By way of comparison, here are the 90 and 140 versions of coup de fouet. All of the detail was retained.

I may be in the minority, but I like the simplified, graphic quality of the 140. And I'd buy your stylized SS20 version if I loved the colors used! :biggrin: I know not everyone's cup of tea, but a number of my favorite older scarves are simple graphics, with only two colors. My difficulty for a several scarf seasons has been the color palettes they've chosen. I've found them challenging, and hard for me to wear, so I've not bought any new scarves for quite a while!

At no charge, I will take a request for customization! :P

Exactly this! I feel the same way

I’m glad some people like it. I’m always worried that they will discontinue the 140 silks. Hopefully there will be something for everyone this season.
