Several of the Dumas family have designed scarves for H. The first H scarf Jeu Des Omnibus et Dames Blanches is attributed to Hugo Grygkar but some articles claim Robert Dumas also had a hand in the design. The H website gives Robert Dumas credit for the inspiration for iconic Brides de Gala. The story behind BdG Forever is described thus:

In 1957, Robert Dumas worked with Hugo Grygkar. He placed two bridles face to face on the floor, and immediately it became clear that the composition was perfect, a scarf with unparalleled simplicity came to life.

Officially, the only scarf that I can find via Prof Google which is attributed to Robert Dumas is A la Gloire de la Cuisine Francaise.

Philippe Dumas designed many scarves. Jean-Louis Dumas designed a few, well-loved designs such as Bolduc and Les Amazones.

Rena Dumas, wife of Jean-Louis Dumas, was an architect and interior designer who created many items for H, including one scarf: Les Bolides. The design features pretty flowers and foliage in the foreground, and the fleeting images of race cars zooming past behind. This design was issued as one of the special editions for Le Mans car race.

Way back in the 1940s, Retour a la Terre by Oliver Dumas was released as a 90. It was reissued in the 1990s. Retour is his only design for a 90, but his drawings were also used for the repeated patterns on ties and gavs in the mens collex. My Retour was newly acquired a couple of months ago. It's a cotton scarf which came to me as part of a combo deal of 4 scarves. My eye was on another scarf included in the deal, so ... H maths, plus I had a shipping voucher, etc etc.

The scarf features a main motif depicting a family at their farm.

Around the four sides are panels showing the harvests of grapes, dates and apples and transport of bales of wheat. The edges have small drawings of the farmers.

It is tiny figures like those on the Retour border which can be found on ties and gav in the men's collex (sample picture from the internet).

Retour is charming and a combo deal sounds fun. Thank you for the interesting information.

I will be spending the day cooking-- like many, I am sure! No scarf in the kitchen, I am afraid; they are all safe from exploding oils and chickens @GloWW0rM and @Teaforparrots. But my SOYE for a car ride around to look at the neighborhood light displays was on theme! Montserrat Gonzales-Lugo has only designed L'Arbre du Vent and Le Jaguar et le Colibrí-- at least to my knowledge. The borders look like little string of lights too...

Thank you everyone for posting such unique beauties and for enlarging my knowledge of the new and less prolific artists who design for the House. I have loved each post! Happy Happy Holidays everyone and a Merry Christmas Eve to those who celebrate!
So beautiful and you were wise to get two color ways. We are cooking and cleaning to get ready for tonight.
 
Good afternoon everybody !!
I hope you are all enjoying the holidays - we are now relaxing from the Big night of food, family and presents yesterday 😊
While still in pyjamas I have played with my present from my Dad - the Noeud de H scarf ring. It feels very versatile and I look forward to wear it in public as well.
Tested it with designs by two designers ehim I believe have not made other (?) than these scarves.

I don't have all her designs. Some I appreciate but don't feel the need to possess. Here are 5 Alice designs from her earlier years. Some were bought when they were issued; some were bought from the resale market when I learnt to appreciate the design.

Dans un Jardin Anglais
I bought a gav first but soon realized that the 90 was more to my liking (it has the bunnies!)

Tyger Tyger
My first purchase in more than one cw - because I was born in the Year of the Tiger :catlick:

Into the Canadian Wild
I bought a second cw this year when I came across the Canada 150 SE.

Awooooo
A tiny wolf for me, because my home H never received my preferred cw in 100.

Mountain Zebra
A design so mesmerizing that I witnessed passersby stopping in front of the boutique window. They gaped at the MZ on display, turned and detoured in, and asked to buy it.

Amazing! I love that scarf ring with it too, very nice touch.

Oooh I love the berry, orange and blue tones together!

The festive Chorus Stellarum to celebrate Christmas Eve. I made a holiday fruit salad. Drizzled with an orange juice and cinnamon-honey dressing, it was quite refreshing! Merry Christmas to all who celebrate and sending good wishes to this friendly, caring and welcoming community. :hugs:

Merry Christmas everyone!
