Oh cripes, I've just done something fatal and re-examined this thread in detail taking a good look at every single picture ( thanks indeed Uno and mystery enabler!) and I'm falling for Ex Libris En Kimono which amazes me as Anamorphe's designs have never done anything for me at all. I'm falling for Arbre de Vie too and thinking that maybe, just maybe, with the dark midwinter nights at Christmas Magic Kelly might look OK then ( but not for me). I marvel at L'Ivress de L'infini - to me it looks like what people tell me a migraine looks like to a sufferer but Hermes must have struck a rich seam in these ultra-busy designs over the last few seasons otherwise they wouldn't be doing them.
But I am surprised that they are reissuing Cavaldacour and Harnais de Cour in the same season as they deal with the same subject matter and the results when you tie them are very similar.
So, my bank account is in greater danger than before - if the Mosaic silk-cashmere scarves are in exciting colourways and the Cuirs du Desert shawls are better than this season's colours I may just have to find a better job. This is all growing on me and I can't get the exuberance of that Phoenix out of my head - maybe I'll take two in madly clashing shades.
