I have a feeling I am going to learn so much this week as a newbie collector, so excited! Thank you for this introductory tour through history!
We all know what the original Brides de Gala looks like... I am very partial to the modern reinterpretation Brides de Gala Shadow from a few years back, which I own both in gavroche and 90 format. Blurring the details and using bright colors gives this design a poppy, almost pyschedelic makeover, which fits much better with my casual wardrobe than the super classic original design.
So true about the changing border color. Great thinking. These are all gorgeous examples. I love your Regarde look. The burgundy strip is so striking on a soft beauty
Oh yes! Great examples. I am in love with your purple border kuna. Stunning. I still remember your kuna twilly and how dramatic and beautiful that isSneaking in a few more, too. Striped hem on PdP:

Thank you all again for making this week so very special.
This entire parade….wowza. I am in love w your changeant. I never see this one. And the blue Cartes is gorgeous. This design is on my list due to the hundreds of hours I spent with my grandmother playing cards. Never can choose a cw. This might be it. The soft white look is stunning. And the peuple parade!! Must resist!!!!
I can tell the design in this plisse which is so cool! And the ringOh my word, Croisette, these are fantastic. Love them all, of course, but that last moussie changeant is TDF. This is one of the happiest of designs, isn’t it? I have a plisse but you have convinced me that a moussie might be a very good idea. Using my mother’s ring as a scarf ring.

Amazing examples. I didn’t even think of pivoines. You are really good! I also didn’t realize you loved that design. I absolutely love my one too.
Brilliant analysis. The pearl w the tight tie is perfection!
I hear you in the intimidating. Fully am with you. Funny how we have this instinctual thoughts and feelings about scarf designs. I am so glad you found your “one”. It is an inspired retake on the classic. I went with the heart gavs for my take ( before the marble haha). There is certainly one for everyone in this design. And so happy to be twins on marble!
Ok wow! Just wow! These are stunning autumn winter colors. And how the green highlights the border
Love shadow. Such an awesome take on the design.
Hi, scarf friends! Wow, we are 70 pages already! No hope for me to catch up then… wanted to share some recent scarves.
* Les Boxes — wore that to the stables this morning. It is actually a very accurate portrayal of the stables, down to pigeons eating out of horse buckets.
* La Trêve d’Eau. I hope you all are very impressed with me wearing it with a Patagonia down vest. All I have to say in my defense it that it has been freezing at work.
* The lace one (I think this is Toile d’H)
* Acte III
* The Jamdani stole

Oh, and here we have Wild Singapore, Panthera Pardus, and La Patisserie Francaise. Hope everyone has been well!
Hi Anna - Nice to see you, and I especially love your reds.
Love all the felines.
This is a stunning way to wear that orange one.
Synergy: my light gray and turquoise wool kimono tunic requires some color so I don’t get washed out; and I like my turquoise Petite Main best when I wear it with something other than black, so it gets a turn around my neck for a change 
Swoon on the last one and your perfect lip color to match it! **chefs kiss**
Yes it is moving particularly fast haha. Boxes is gorgeous w your brown and cowl-neck top. And no judgment ever from us scarfie in your Patagonia. We do yoga clothes and H
This is a smashing parade of color! That patisserie twilly is gorg on you! The tone wow. And Twins on Singapore. It is gorgeous
Best use of silk ever. I always love seeing this mains cw.Synergy: my light gray and turquoise wool kimono tunic requires some color so I don’t get washed out; and I like my turquoise Petite Main best when I wear it with something other than black, so it gets a turn around my neck for a change

Interesting idea with a scarf ring and a plisse. I assume you needed a slightly larger-than-usual ring? I should try that.Oh my word, Croisette, these are fantastic. Love them all, of course, but that last moussie changeant is TDF. This is one of the happiest of designs, isn’t it? I have a plisse but you have convinced me that a moussie might be a very good idea

Thank you for the intro. It is fascinating how different new Hermes scarves are from those of yesteryear. Perhaps I should wear some of my older ones this week to remind myself how far the printing technology has come. Loves that Nuees by the way!
Every time I see your red Au Coin de Feu it makes me want!! I have one in light blue but such a different and festive vibe. I love the changing hem!
A plumet is a bouquet of feathers used to decorate military headgear, including, of course, that of the cavalry. Given Hermes' penchant for all things equestrian, it's no wonder there was a plumet scarf, in 1989: Julie Abadie's "Casques et Plumets". You can see an image here. It's a busy busy scarf. The preponderance of mustard tones and the random leopard print background (why??) make this look rather dated, I would say! It does however capture the opulent plumets beautifully. (I don't own this scarf, in case that's not clear.)
We can compare this with the spring/summer 2022 scarf "Plumets et Panaches" - a much more modern plumet scarf with bright colors and a plain white background to make them stand out. It does have a polka dot overlay which is about as distracting as the leopard print of the older one! But I like the polka dots when worn. They give the classic subject matter a fresh, irreverent touch.
Here's the h.com picture and my modshots:
