The SOTD 2021 thread is now open and ready for business:

Scarves - Scarf of the Day 2021 - Which Hermès scarf are you wearing today?

continued from here THEME WEEKS for 2021 from TEAM SCARF MISTRESS Just for fun, each Sunday begins a new Theme Week. This year, we have some real treats in store! We have a full complement of scarf mistresses and GSMs for 2021 and I want to give a quick shout out and thank you to my fellow...

Good Morning Scarflandia!

This week’s theme is Sherlock Scarves.

Well my fellow scarf fiends - we’re doing a bit of a switcheroo on you! We’re really going to ask you to put on your Deerstalker hats, and employ all your considerable sleuthing skills. Not to find out what Santa’s hidden under the tree, but to solve some H Mysteries.

Sherlock Holmes first appeared in print in 1887, A Study in Scarlet. Sherlock Holmes was known for his proficiency with observation, deduction, forensic skills and logical reasoning that borders on the fantastic.

I don’t think ole Sherlock has a thing on us Scarfies! I have never seen such a dedicated group - we know SO MUCH about these beauties… and how did we find out so much about them? Why we’ve sleuthed through the internet, we tracked down art and history books, H’s own libraries! We deduced, we used our intuitive and inquisitive minds, to learn all we could.
I’m not sure how much logic was involved - it is H after all!

I’m going to start the week with Kachinas.
View attachment 4922702

A Kachina is a spirit being in the religious beliefs of many Native American cultures, Kachinas are spirits or personifications of things in the real world. The central theme of kachina beliefs and practices as explained by Wright (2008) is "the presence of life in all objects that fill the universe. Everything has an essence or a life force, and humans must interact with these or fail to survive." The Kachinas are supernatural beings who visit the villages to help with everyday activities and act as a link between gods and mortals. There are different types of Kachinas - Chief Kachinas (elders), Ogres (disciplinary), Warriors or Guards (enforcers), Runners (race the men) , Clowns (humor), Female, and Animal.

I don’t know about you - but I find this fascinating.
The outer circle has 16 Kachinas, the inner has 8. I’ve been researching off and on for a couple of years, trying to figure out what they all are. I have found what I *think* are some of them, and a lovely woman on Instagram (@cloudwei.c) has been working on it too. She had some that I did not and I’ve incorporated her information. I hope she doesn’t mind!

I’m going to start with the inner circle - starting with Number 1 and going around the circle clockwise.

I hope we can all be like Sherlock and find even more information on this scarf. I don’t know what all of the Kachinas are, but would like to. I’ll be adding the next 16, including the ones I don’t know, starting tomorrow. Any new information gleaned using time tested Sherlock, I mean Scarfie methods will be added to my Google documents and posted at the end of the week.
View attachment 4922712
And I am so curious about so many other scarves as well… What are the all the lucky tokens that are included in Turandot? What does the background of Mythiques Phoenix mean?

Tell us something interesting about a scarf you have or play mystery scarves: show us a close-up & we’ll guess the scarf - we’re going to be all over the place this week!

It’s Elementary, my dear Watsons!

Fabulous post!!!

Great intro, Cookie. I like the Kachinas scarves and own a lot although my friends find them scary.

Love this happy scarf, croisette! So cheery.

Thank you so much, Awillow!

“And it makes me ask, do I have a kryptonite when it comes to designs?”
This is a great topic for a theme week!

+100! Would be perfect for a theme!

Rounding off the week with Ugo Gattoni, also a representative of the cute factor. His clients are very diverse and include Nissan, Rolex and Nike. He designs span a wide range of products including wallpaper and, as @bunnycat mentioned, candles. He spent his visit to Singapore at the Carre Club event 2 years ago creating animation.

Check out the gorgeous animated commercial for the Diptyque candles (I am definitely biased because it features a magic cat )

[bunnycat]

it is a beauty, Karenska, I totally agree!


good luck with repairing, I bring my (few pieces of) antique jewellery to our local goldsmith who does wonders on them.


those are great colours, Croisette!


glorious scarf, Awillow, and love the whole outfit!


beautiful, Cookie! I always adore your smile.


this is a lovely blue, Redbirdhermes!


a stunning look, Le Lion!


great scarves, Bunnycat!


those a lovely wintery colours, Moma, and great with the grey shirt (and rose lipstick)!


Quite a collection, Xincinsin, ans beautiful colours for all of them!

Thank you Agrume!

Fabulous bunnycat!


Simply classy, moma!

Many thanks Croisette!

Thanks, BC. I think I've told you all before that I hated this scarf at first. I even went to the event at H where he was signing it, and didn't buy one!

Magic indeed. The black CW is so wonderful.

Thank you!

Thank you! I never thought about wintery colors as such, but you're right. And I love pink lipstick!

Thank you, dear. It is so different than all my other scarves.

Yes- Famous last words in H....

I have missed out on a few weeks of SOTD because of being busy with work and struggling to photograph scarves in daylight this time of the year (living in the dark north...). So I apologise for being a bit off topic for this week.

Here are my contributions for Spice Route - Destination Europe:

Marine et Cavalerie. In my cw the flag looks like the Dutch flag and the cavalry are wearing red, white and blue colours.

Napoleon x 2. I love it so much I got it in two cws (that look very similar...)
View attachment 4922736

Gorgeous, naessi! I adore this napoleon look on you.

 

[xincinsin]

cute is my kryptonite

You have the most interesting ideas. Thanks for sharing them here. This post makes me much more deeply appreciate the cute aspect of Hermes. And it makes me ask, do I have a kryptonite when it comes to designs?

Thank you for the lovely comment. I remember someone on SOTD once remarked that I obviously find much joy in my scarves. I endeavour to share my sense of glee with everyone here.

And I have no idea if this is on theme, but surely with LeDoux's long association with H, he wore more than one hat at H as well???

What I noticed about life is that once you get a foot in the door, it's much easier to explore the rest of the house. Many a time, the H designers start off in one department and are given opportunities in other fields when H recognizes their talent. Henri d'Origny was doodling when someone remarked that his doodles would be a nice design for a tie, and so it began...

Today I wore La Serpentine de Pierre Charpin, and posted it in the wrong thread LOL. He designs furniture and cool objects. I think this is his only scarf for H. View attachment 4922395

Serpentine belongs to that category of scarves which I just can't visualize on me (my wallet just heaved a sigh of relief )
