"Your wish is my command"!! :flowers:

It arrived today.... I really love it. I don't know why they call the main color "rouge". I don't think I am color blind but it looks totally orange to me... In comparing it to another shawl, it appears to be one shade brighter than Orange Vif. It has my favorite colors in it... Turq, purple, orange ... It has a little more solid space to it than I like. I am trying to stick to busy patterns as they show snags and runs a lot less. But this one is a keeper for sure! Unlike a lot of you, orange is my #1 most favorite shawl color. I just totally love orange!! I have 4 orange shawls now and others with orange in them so I may have to cool it a bit and try for other colors for A/W 09.

Ottavia, thank you so much for sharing this shawl with us as I would never have had an opportunity to even know it existed!!

So, without further adieu here are a few shots taken on a hanger... It was dark when I got home from work so I didn't have ideal lighting .... The middle color is showing up as a golden yellow but it is more of a light orange.

Magnificent! I can see why you call this an orange cw rather than rouge- odd that Hermes labeled it that way. You have a brilliant set of orange shawls- love them all!

Kallie Girl -- Your Cirque shawl is beautiful! I'm so glad it worked out well for you. I agree that the coloring is more orange than red. The mousse comes in more colorways, and there is one that has a true red border with a yellow circus ring. Your collection of orange shawls is fabulous! I also have the orange Cheval Sur Mon Carre and it is also one of my favorites.

KG you are making me crave orange - and it's not even a favorite color! These are soooo beautiful!

Luckymom, I think you should be called Luckywife, too!

They are both beautiful, Luvbolide! So much so, I got the black one as well, in Cashmere Shawl and in mousseline! They are so hard to resist! Here's a pic of the black c/s. DH insisted I get both the shawl and mousseline or I'd regret it one day!

Hope this helps your decision making!:drool:

Wow, this is so fab on you. What is so neat about the black one is that the border sort of fades and the "people" look like they are at the bottom and it has sort of a lacey look.... I wish i could wear black... this colorway is amazing!!!!!
