Scarf of the Day (Themes on page 1)

[cherryblossum]

Two D'Origny scarves I wore over the weekend:

Grande tenue (orig edition)
Éperon d'or

Dear momasaurus,
I usually choose colorful scarves but I adore both two classical scarves. It is difficult to find out classical one these days.I love the way you tie,too.:worthy:

Wow, I have been away from this thread for quite a few days with house guests…so many beautiful scarves and wonderful posts to catch up on. My apologies in advance for simply thanking all of you who have posted pictures of, and stories about your scarves this week. I have seen many that I did not know existed and am intrigued by quite a few! (Especially your Triomphe du Paladin rosamonde)

My small contribution to this weeks theme:

Festival des Amazones tied in a flower knot
Cavalcadour in a cowboy knot

Multicolor scard is my all time favarite.Both look beautiful on you,Bova

Cavalcadour is featured next season!

 

[cherryblossum]

Thanks for the ideas, cherryblossum and Melora! I will get the scarf out again and play with it some more.

My pleasure

Birkinmary, we will miss your gorgeous photos this week! I hope you are off traveling someplace nice.

Bova, lovely silks in lovely ties! Those brights look great on you.

Thank you rosamonde! May I ask if the Paladin you posted is 70cm or 90cm format…looks like maybe 70cm?

 

[Bova123]

What an amazing colour for cavalcadour! May I ask if your Festival des Amazones is 90cm or 70cm?

Thank you Vassa! The Festival scarf is actually a gavroche. I love that size, fun to play with and especially nice in the warmer months.

Thank you Bova123. I love the way you tied it, but since I only have 90cm, I would probably be unable to reproduce this lovely and neat knot...

 

[BritAbroad]

How fun that you noticed, BritAbroad...I do love history!

Kindred spirit here, rosamonde, big history buff and I adore old velum manuscripts, such spellbinding works of art!

 

[rosamonde]

Thank you rosamonde! May I ask if the Paladin you posted is 70cm or 90cm format…looks like maybe 70cm?

Hi Bova! Yes, it is a 90 cm. I don't have any 70s in my collection, actually! Something to be remedied?

 

[rosamonde]

Kindred spirit here, rosamonde, big history buff and I adore old velum manuscripts, such spellbinding works of art!

I love hearing that, BritAbroad! We are twins! I too am a fan of old MS of all sorts...for their calligraphy, their illuminations, and even their early examples of music notation...so beautiful.

Do you have any H scarves that reflect this love of yours?

Many thanks Rosamunde, Birkinmary,cherryblossom,Lanit ,momasorus for your kind words .
Rosamunde I'm bowled over by how lovely your Paladin looks and found the lilac tones still managed to stand out within the complex design. I love that inner border too .
I do find most of my older scarves very formal and find the very plain wide borders of old diifficult to play with , this one is perfect.

Melora Nice scarf necklace looking very fresh , and it's reminding me to revisit that these warm days .

Bova Love your gavroches and agree they are the most fun ! Festival is so good in gavroche format and I love your fuschia c'way.

 

[momasaurus]

Thanks, momasaurus. I admit to having a soft spot for the historically themed scarves! Is there a scarf "genre" that you find yourself drawn to?

Oh, my genre is totally the antique stuff. Medieval and 18th c especially! Nothing like capes and a pair of tights to get me excited!

Bova, I am with you on the gavroche love. However, you have much more nimble fingers than I to achieve that adorable little flower! Great looks. Thank you.

Thank you, cherryblossom. These classical designs come up on eBay and other resale sites; keep looking!

More from d'Origny: L'instruction du roi 90 and Festival gavroche. I posted these already in my top 5, I think, so here are some fun archival shots.

First: Instruction as a sort of cape.

Then with some puppy love.

Festival with a bold top! Too bright?
