I am also late to the Animapolis party with my (finally) final purchase from the spring scarves. So here is Animapolis in CW 02 (bordeaux/rouge/bleu) for reference. All my Ugo Gattoni scarves are very bright and I wanted something a bit moodier for Jan's scarf. But I also wanted the cat and monster stand out well. The red monster stands out on this CW like it does on the red/blue CW of Sweet Dreams, and the cat showed up easily in both of my ties so I thought that was a fair compromise between the red Sweet Dream colors and Animapolis as my choice. It was a decision that took a looooong time.

Thanks moma! It is. I became obsessed with the red monster. I decided to try and find the Sweet Dreams with the red monster, then couldn't for so long I opted for this one instead since it had a red monster. The blue cat shows up nicely and that is a big bonus. The other CW I was interested in was the one with the black contrast hem. This is a totally different vibe in terms of color from the U.G scarves so I think it was a good call. (Of course now the Sweet Dreams with the red monster is available again...too late...choice made! I'm not gonna play that game.)

@ILLYLOULOU96, you've inspired me photograph my purchases from this season which I haven't posted about! I love your Perspectives btw :smile: So here are mine, for reference purposes:

1) Camails MT Cut in navy/red/blue. This is probably my most used scarf. The bright reds and blues and the navy background mean that it goes with 90% of my wardrobe :smile:
2) Equateur MT Cut in pink/green. Not my most used but definitely my favorite scarf. I also took a close-up of Dallet's beautiful animals.
3) Double Sangles 90cm. Laid flat this design is not all that special, but I find that these half-and-half scarves create a very cool effect when tied.
4) Faubourg Rainbow CSGM. I adore all the bright colors and especially the yellows. Just looking at this scarf cheers me up.
5) Cheval a la couverture CSGM. I think come winter I will get a lot of use out of the bright graphic stripes in this. Plus I had really wanted a scarf with the classical Hermes orange color in it :smile:
6) Pivoines 90cm (I've posted this one before in some other thread). This scarf is hard to wear but so gorgeous. I love the drawings of that ethereal fantasy city contrasted with the bright bold flowers. And more orange :smile:

So 2 MTs, 2 CSGMs, 2 90s (plus the Animapolis which I've framed!) That's a lot of scarves but I discovered Hermes only a few months ago and went a bit over the top with the initial excitement. Now that I know which scarf formats, colors and designs work with my wardrobe, I'll be more judicious with my purchases in the future. Not to say that I don't love all of these scarves but I have neither the budget nor the space in my wardrobe to buy indiscriminately. Still, it's been a wonderful season and I look forward to the next! :smile:

Beautiful choices!!! Enjoy the journey of Hermes! I love the variety of colors, designs, and sizes of your collection. I started buying Hermes 12 years ago, and I still love and wear my very first scarf and shawl purchases. Thank you for sharing! (I am especially fond of your Rainbow Faubourg shawl!)

Sad update... I went on a quest to try to find the rainbow colored Bojagi shawl that was in the top of my list since January. Turns out, they're sold out in the US and Canada. :sad:
I think the lesson is not to wait until the end of the season to start tracking down an item I really want.

In the meantime, I'm still pondering the Zouaves and Dragons scarf. I tried on the hot pink at the beginning of the season, which was delightful but not a must-have at the time.MVIMG_20190808_141637.jpg But that blue, white, gray, and red one is really pretty great, too. It is very classic and elegant.
