I so relate to this, dear @FugitiveRouge ... we are very nearly the same height (I'm an inch shorter). Like you, I gravitated toward the geometric H scarves during my professional life... I also tipped toward the bright, contrasty colors like my red, white & blue Feux d'Artifices. Or the very classic H designs with a lot of gold in them. Now that I'm in a different phase of my life, I'm finding that I lean toward the softer colors and the less contrast-y designs.
Alice Shirley is one of my favorites, too, though I do better with her scaled-down designs (Dans un Jardin Anglais, f'rinstance) as opposed to the oversized ones (Zebra Pegase).
This is wonderful! Thank you for explaining the story behind this design.Whimsy is hidden in this scarf with such a serious and uplifting theme: the carp swimming upstream to leap the gate to transform into dragons. The drawing style is traditional and not comical. I chose a dramatic cw that makes the river look like a churning flow of lava. And then, when you look closely, you find five cartoony dragonflies hovering here and there. And my favourite carp is gazing hungrily at his "appetizer". Makes me wonder if this is the H meta method of reminding us to pause and smell the roses as we climb the ladder of success.

Me too... it’s great!
What a gorgeous FI with those glorious pinks!
So sorry about that! I’ve been sucked and disappointed at some of the things I’ve seen at Hermès latelyGloriously OT, mods please delete if inappropriate - don’t know where else to post - just visited H at Heathrow. When asking in English but pronouncing the name of the two scarves I was interested in in French, the SA just stared at me, I then showed her the names written in French. She then took my phone with the written names to the head honcho, however none of them had any idea of which scarves I meant. She asked for pictures and only then managed to identify the scarves. I find this quite bad management as they are selling luxury goods at premium prices. She admitted they had no training in French and had no idea what the scarf names meant. Sorry, rant over
Thank you!
What glorious CWs of these designs!
I feel the same!So cute!
Thank you sweetie!
I bought this one to replace the one I ruined - I have promised to NOT ruin this one!
ohmigosh! It's the Cheshire Cat!
(I'm going to study this one!)
Pierre Marie designs often have fun and quirky details.
Lab du temps
Where else can you find a unicorn, Native American, Superman and more on 5he same scarf?
Pic from last friday
Think this lady looks a bit unsure of the unicorn!
And of course an H addict leaving the boutique!

Not only the Cats but all the other fairytale characters! Such a great and quirky design!
BOTH Puss ‘n Boots and the Cheshire Cat are there!Naah, it’s Puss in Boots, isn’t it
Such fun, comical, tiny vignettes everywhere! Reminds me of the game board of Le Toir de Monde and Madison des Carres and so many others...
I love the silly in this scarf, but am most struck by how lovely you look in these greens, Croisette7!
I love the Indian astronaut! In fact, I bought this scarf because of him - the first Indian in space! And the aqua striped shirt - how fabulous is that?!?!
A couple of fun images of Ugo Gattoni Bains d’H scarf. Men’s collection silk/cotton
That avocado colored top really does things for the scarf. It sets off that pattern the best I've ever seen.
This design looks interesting. If you don't mind, may I ask if you would be able to post more mod pictures of it tied in few different ways please? Considering if I should add this or not. Thank you in advance.A new scarf and one that's quite special, Pegase Paysage for Saut Hermès 2019, which I excitedly wore and forgot to photograph sans wrinkles!There are only 2 cw's - this blue with turquoise, and a pale pink with yellow and red. It's a carre wash, too! Soft and velvety and does not (to my mind) look/ feel like an old, much-used scarf, which was my "objection" to the other designs in carre wash. Never say never with H!!
