Love finesses and duochrome scarves, and this one is a dream.Here is Alphabet 3, in a 90cm silk twill.
It's my one and only (but hopefully not last) scarf designed by Annie Faivre. The SS 1990 scarf booklet describes the letters 'Y', 'J', 'A', and 'S' surrounding 'Hermes' as having a special meaning, as they are the initials of members of the Hermes family. While it was first offered in the spring of 1990, mine is a finesse from 1999 in a creamy white, with light grey.
I love this whimsical design, especially in this very quiet palette. The numerous animals are all hard at work, :doggie: depicting various letters.
I always enjoy your modeling shots, Etoile de mer! You have a unique, thoughtful collection of scarves (and horn pieces)that work so well with your wardrobe.
