Good morning everyone! My examples today feature scarves where the border provides a "frame" for the design. Not everyone likes this feature; some scarfies have a strong preference for an end-to-end design and visually, whereas a contrast or "non-sequitur" hem as @Pirula has dubbed it, can be a charming, fun or dramatic feature, sometimes a frame border makes its own demands of scarf and wearer. From the small format to the large here are some examples from my collection:
My SOTD: Robe Legere Detail gavroche, aubergine :hbeat: border

Minuit au Faubourg from the 2022 reissue, framed by black

Plumes, a 1953 design framed by a beautiful aqua border

On a Summers Day, a 140 silk with a surprising golden yellow frame

Rayures d'Ete, a 140 cashmere so new I have tags still on! framed in bright red

Attempting my very first SOTD post. I cannot figure out how to take a decent me in my scarf selfie, so I am giving myself a little grace for my first post.

In keeping with the happy hems theme, I wore my only design with bicolor hems (I have this in 2 formats). Unfortunately, you cannot see the hems in the photo! Ha! Failure all around!

But here she is. Millefleurs du Mexique, 140cm in mousseline. She is very floofy and I struggle with a good knot. Suggestions welcome!

Edited to add photo of how I retired it into a headband using an off- brand chaine d’ancre style ring.

Whaou ! The first photo could almost tempt me with a gavroche (it's the wallet that will be happy!).
Thanks for sharing. Considering different formats is a great idea

Success for your first post ! I hope many others will come soon !
 
I love green and purple!
Thank you, Snausages! It’s a gorgeous cw. It wasn’t my first choice, though. My very first brand-new Hermès scarf purchased from the online boutique in October 2018 as a “I’m anticipating retirement in a year“ gift to myself, I loved this cw but wanted the cw with the red hem, almond and lavenders. It was sold out. So I chose this cw and I wouldn’t trade it for the world. It took me weeks to actually wear it. I would just open the box and look at it, lovingly :lol:.

These are wonderful examples, Lkb, and frame borders are certainly a feature of the older designs. Love all but Rayures is just a colorful blast! Minuit au F is one that has called me from time to time, but I haven’t yet pulled the lever. ❤️❤️

A beautiful first SOTD mod shot, MLFashion Princess! Millefleurs is so pretty and ties gorgeously. For me, because I am short and petite, but full-figured, it is essential that I tame so much silk. My go-to knot is to do a weave knot. It really settles all that silk into a neat and flowing accessory. Tutorials available on this forum in another thread but here’s help from YT and MaiTai:
 
I fell in love with the Moorish border on the Danse des Amazones design and requested it as soon as I saw it in this green / gold / black colorway. It also has a weird choice for the trim - dark blue - found nowhere else in the design. I love that though... gives me confidence to wear it with my go-to color navy.
