I thought it would be a good idea to start a database of scarf “errors” “mistakes” or just, ahem, creative differences on some of the usual scarf products - different or unusual tags relevant to that year, scarves that may not have a name or a signature printed on it, printing errors, etc. (mods please move if this is a duplicate or in the wrong place)
I thought I would start this off with a purchase I made YESTERDAY - a pair of the new Jungle Love Love twillies. Tbh, I had several opportunities to buy them online, but passed until I went to my boutique and my SA had actually been holding a pair for me in black. So I took them home. The first thing I usually do when I purchase something new from H is to take pictures of it. That’s when I noticed the issue...
I photograph the front first - for twillies, that’s with the tag side in.
And that’s when I saw this...
...the copyright symbol. On the front. I’ve never seen the copyright symbol on the front of the twillies. And where is the “Hermès Paris”, which is usually at the bottom of the front of every Twilly? I flipped it over to the back...
...yup, it’s on the back. And then if you look at the actual design. Well, the top of the leopard part on the front looks correct...
The top of the back looks like the back...
But compare the bottom of the front (with half a bird!)
to the bottom of the back, with more color and the Hermès Paris
So is the tag on the wrong side of the Twilly??? Or was there a mistake with the printing - shouldn’t the front look like this?

this is the Savana Dance — I don’t remember what side had the tag on, but without looking for the copyright (on the more orange side) and the Hermes Paris (on the more purple side), I wouldn’t know what the front and the back are meant or be. They are both quite self-sufficient designs to me. So maybe that’s part of it?
