Ok loves! Picked up CW 14!!! @Joannadyne- I went in for 05 but I couldn't stop thinking about @Bostonjetset's photos!!!

Needless to say, 05 and a few others are still reserved for me in my pile.

Also picked up a Les Bains de Hermès 100 and a Savannah Dance gavroche. I have a super important meeting this week and always have a weird tradition of buying a new gavroche for career-related meetings.View attachment 3661638

Love it! It seems like no matter how this design is tied, it's always fabulous.
 
I want to ask those 07 owners if you have any issues on the cream part near the border? It looks like where the hems are fastened was pulling the threads from the scarf if that makes sense. It's more obvious when you are under the indoor light. It reflects the imperfection. I ordered mine online and was not so happy with the quality and requested for an exchange. But the second one was only worse. It not only has those pulling but also has a snag. It's faint but it's there. I don't see this problem with any other CWs. I wonder if there's anything specific to this CW that's causing this? Or is this the new style - veining on the scarf? j/k.

Anyone has the same problem?

I hope this photo would show you what I mean

cavilla, I am so sorry this happened to you! I just checked my 07 and it doesn't have this pull. I think that maybe the person who sewed the rolled hem pulled the thread too tightly which caused this. I hope you are able to find another one. In the meantime, do you notice it when it is tied or just up close like in the picture?
Hugs to you.

cavalla, that happens very often. It is the very tight stitching of some roulotteuses.

I saw it as soon as I looked at it under the indoor light. You don't have to get too close to see it. During daylight is less visible, only when the light hits it at the right angle.
 
Finally able to see Samourais in person - what AMAZING details. I bought 02 which has already been expertly modeled by passionforelegance, but I am including a few more here.View attachment 3663484 View attachment 3663485 View attachment 3663486 View attachment 3663487 View attachment 3663488

HahHa, when you posted these pics in another thread, I thought it looked so fresh and pretty - and then I realized that I actually have it and have worn it a bunch! This is not one of those cws that's been done and redone - in fact, I think part of the allure of those cws is that many of them are new color combinations. [emoji177][emoji177][emoji177]

02 is such a CW that just keeps growing on you. Pairs so well with so many different tops. They're all gorgeous but what an unexpected fabulous pairing with that dark gray! A very elegant one. I'll have to wear it like this some time. Thanks for sharing.
