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

[Julide]

Thank you, @bunnycat , for hosting last week's leaping theme. And, welcome @Julide , as the host of this week's Multiples Week. I figured out that you were the Multiples Queen when you admitted to having all of the Tapis Persans. I only have three, but they will be coming out this week for sure. This week is sure to be a treat.

I continue my habit of finding a crossover scarf for Sunday that embodies both this week's theme, as well as last week's theme. My SOTD is Tigre Royal Fleuri. I'm wearing the red today, but the navy was one of my early purchases. These two scarves are my first multiples purchase from Hermes.

Yes well tapis Persans is a love of mine The tigre fleuri you have are such happy colours! And you always have such great jewelry matches with your scarves!!

I think it's Millefleurs du Mexique.

Agree. I didn't buy it in sea green and that will haunt me a long time till I get one.

Terrific intro, @Julide! I look forward to participating this week.

Thank you Karenska!

Excellent kick-off Julide- can’t wait to see your many beauties



Holy Moley Foxy, these are amazing!
I’m loving your obsessions and the colorways you’ve picked look so great on you.


The kitties truly suit you (leo tee is a great find). You wear a Bova cowboy like nobody’s business

Thank you Turfnsurf!

Lovely intro.

wow! So many multiples! Beautiful Foxy Trini and bunnycat!


@Pirula Le Bal de Oiseaux in dark background is splendid. I haven't gotten one yet b/c I'm too busy tracking down multiples of particular HS. (And I'm sure that once I do get Oiseaux I will get multiples, it's a very special scarf no matter what cw).

Thanks for sharing foxy!We all have parameters for our collections and I’m sure you will find yours too! You have a wonderful collection, I can see why you had multiples of many designs.

@FoxyTrini, I totally agree with Julide. You have a great eye and that's what makes a great collection.

Sorry for the messed-up quotes, everyone! If I am not losing quotes, I am apparently doubling up and somehow muddling up the format...
I have been eyeing this week with a bit of trepidation because until recently I had few multiples and the ones I had were sort of accidental (an "inherited" or gift of a scarf that was a duplicate of one I had). I guess right there is a distinction: duplicate versus multiple. My first actually chosen "multiple" was Parures des Samurois, the scarf that started my road to H Perdition. Since then I have consciously added multiples because (a) I adore the design and "need" another or (b) I bought a cw before I became a collector and have since decided I prefer something else but have not yet parted with the first (this is my Colorway Correction Program CCP). Some of these multiples are in a re-home pile but occasionally are given another chance to audition for a leading role. Sometimes, I buy a multiple because the scarf is an "outfit-maker" and I want to have another cw for a different seasonal look or day/evening etc. So that is my story so far and I am sticking to it! Here is a recent multiple from last season. I traded my blue Selle des Steppes for red/black/blue cw which is much more casual than the black/white/gold one. I wear both quite a bit. (Last tie is @blydia's amazing "rando knot").

What fabulous insight! I would love to learn more about your CCP. I may need it! The hem makes this design tie so beautifully!!

Lovely intro.

wow! So many multiples! Beautiful Foxy Trini and bunnycat!

I have very few multiples. In fact only one both 90s and two 90s/CSGM. It appears to be a hang up I have for no good reason. I’ll share them now because in two days time I’m off to………..Paris!

It seems to me that when you get a new design it signals to the universe (& internet) to put more in your path.

Exhibit A is Bolduc:
View attachment 5225972Left is older reissue, Right is newer reissue- originally purchased to frame. I enjoy having examples of odd copyrights, etc. and the oldie falls in that category. It presented itself shortly after first and I couldn’t resist having both to compare/contrast.

They are very different in color & hand (the older soul has had numerous washings and is buttery soft).

“Newer” has bolder H box color and more body.

Twilly impulse buy has surprise metallic lettering

So cool to see the different years in this design!

 

[Julide]

Many apologies for the endless quotes. I am still not able to make them work correctly. I have deliberated all day and what to post and have decided to start at the beginning; the one design that started my multiple collection…eLeK

I saw the design when it came out and decided I “needed” more than one, two quickly became a hunt for all. And with the help of many tPFers, my collection came together. The sentimental aspect of wonderful people that helped me is also another reason, this one will be forever my favourite.

thank you! Eagle!

Thank you Pirula. Have a wonderful time!

Holy SMOKES!!!! I just died. Carry on.

I have been waiting not so patiently for this week to come. Have you ever seen a design where you couldn’t decide which colour to buy? Or one design that got away? Or perhaps a scarf that spoke to you in some other way?

Seduced by silk: Multiples.

I may have been sided tracked once or twice by a design that pulls me in. My first foray into H scarves ended in purchasing multiples of that design. Have you ever been drawn into a design that you “needed”more than one? What compels you to buy more than one of the same design? Is there a design you wished you had bought more than one of? Some say there is no other scarves that feel like H scarves or maybe it is the designs or maybe the colours. Forgive my rambling, for me it is the design. Some just grab me and I am in Thank you all for indulging me in one of my weaknesses when it comes to H: Multiples.


Here is a statisticalbreakdown of my collection:
Exactly 60% of my 90’s collection is a multiple.
46.3% of my 140’s collection is multiple. This includes giant silks, mousseline and CSGM
As you can see by the data before youI am a little bit fond of multiples


This week is going to be filled with scarf eye candy! Fellow scarifies be prepared, rest your eyes...btw did you know that green can be a soothing colour for the eye? Diamond graders usually have a green wall to relax their eyes on. So rest your eyes upon this lush greenery and enjoy this coming week!!

@Julide what about cross format multiples? Such as the 90 and the 140cm versions?

Foxy… these are all such beautiful scarves. Totally worth doubles… or triples… or more!

I have several for this week, and they are all 2 word Titles...Is there something psychological there going on???

We'll start with my true love in the cat scarves subset. It was love at first sight for the first colorway I saw so I bought it as soon s I saw it, but then could NOT get the purple colorway out of my head. For EIGHT months...couldn't get it out of my head. Couldn't bring myself to sell the first and get the other, so I called to a boutique to find one (only time I have gone through the trouble of ordering from a boutique over the phone) and still (happily) have 2 (and still search for a larger format that would suit my coloring...)

Jaguar Quetzal. Caramel/Rose colorway. This was the first one I got.

But then the purple one nagged me endlessly....The purple scarves were fantastic that season. Here with the same top because I was trying to decide which one to wear that day..

And the purple on in a cowboy Bova knot.

How marvelous! I love both shades of orange, and I can’t resist the soft hand of the vintage scarves. ❤
Do tell what sort of sorcery you’ve worked with this last photo… I see wings!?!

The scarf is stunning on you Cookiefiend. I think the right name is Millefleurs du Mexique. There was one in sea green and I was really torn.

I think of that design as a 70. Is that right?

You do such a nice job wearing white blouses with scarves. It's a great look for you.

Thank you sweetheart!
It is a 70, and I made a mistake with the name. It is indeed MdM - I should not post when I have the Sweet Pea with me... she is very distracting!

I appreciate your kind words regarding my white blouses - I have an astronomical number of white/ivory/cream blouses… they go with everything!
