What a lovely origami design (kind of meta!). Now on my wishlist!I did some washing and ironing of my new to me scarves. This is one I just did. Modeling it since it’s a multiple for me. Tech it’s a no scarf day today. Metamorphose d‘une carre.

The round looks lovely! Excellent knotting!This week is about resistanceand capitulation
Which is also the story of this design: a complete comedy of lust, indecision and FOMO.
When H first released Clair de Lune, I love love loved the design ... BUT ... yes, there was a but. I find 140 silks very difficult to use. Too much silk for me and I get swamped. And it was round - would I look like I'm wearing a tablecloth? My SA showed it to me and I sighed over it but reluctantly decided not to buy it because it was a lot of money to spend on a scarf that I would likely never wear. My SA agreed and swept it away (the hot pink cw, I recall).
Then Clair de Lune was released as a double-sided 90. Oh yes! But it was during the pandemic and there was a run on the scarves here. Gone were the days I could hem and haw over various cws. My SA made an executive decision and reserved a cw for me. There was zero choice because all the pieces of Clair de Lune were reserved.

The round version still haunted my mind because every now and then, a scarfie here would post a modshot that made me second-guess my decision. On Monday, I was browsing a local resellers inventory because I was considering selling to them. And lo and behold, they had the round scarf, like new, for half the retail price. I bought it and picked it up the next day. Because at half-price, yes, I can afford to try it out.
This is me swamped in silk

Thank you for steering me to Lanternes! That RL gavI do have some multiples at home-- notably my truest and earliest scarf loves Parures de Samurais and Ex Libris en Kimonos, which I shall try to post when I return home. In the meantime, this last season was ruinous for me in terms of designs so here are some multiples I recently acquired... and thank you for indulging my catch-up post!
Lanternes, Ballons et Cocardes

Looks wonderful with that striped top!My story is almost identical to yours! I loved the idea of the original but not the price, size or shape so was a reluctant “no” from me. Then I lusted after the double-face in the colour you have (and LKB too?) but couldn’t get it so settled for the pink/red version…

I see multiple scarfies with multiples of this! All fabulousLike many of us, the moment I saw Chorus Stellarum I knew it would be a multiple. I've already worn my pink.

Love this on you!!!!!!
Thank you!!!!!See… you already had the perfect pieces to match it! Those tights/stockings are amazing, by the way!
This would be a knockout with dark jeans and a plain white tee, and very striking with a plain fitted dress in yellow, cream, navy or teal. That‘s both ends of the sartorial spectrum covered!
If you have any lingering doubts about the yellow, I find a little touch of lip colour can sometimes help balance the effect of yellow close to the face. We have some lip colour experts here who may have suggestions. Well done for rocking the yellow and thanks for sharing your styling pics
