New TPF member here. I asked this question on the Hermes in Action thread, and they suggested I might have more luck asking you folks:

I've recently gotten a bad jones for gavroches. Does anyone have the Festival des Amazones gavroche in the white-yellow-salmon colorway? This one:

If so, I'd love to see a picture of it in action! I'd love to know if the grey contrast hem really shows up as a contrast hem, if the border is ivory as opposed to the white in the center, and, well, I'd like to know how you like it.

I did a quick search of this thread, and I see Festival in the mousseline and in other colorways, but not the white one. Apologies if I missed it, though.

And if any of you has been considering buying it, maybe this is a good excuse to do so? Help a TPFer out by wearing it and posting some pictures? ; )

I don't have it.

Technically, though, it's in my house. And I don't think the owner will mind if I borrow it for a few pictures :)

The hem is light grey, almost silver. The border is plain white, exactly like the white in the center. I really like this cw, it's nice that the others I've seen. Depending on how you fold it, it can be mostly yellow or mostly pink, which is always nice!
(the owner chose well, I'm proud of her!)

Scarfies,
I'm sure I have flooded this thread in the past week or so. Hope you aren't sick of seeing my photos yet...
The other day, I wore my Jardins de Nouvelle Angleterre, which I sought for nearly two years and finally nailed it this summer.

I hadn't worn it since purchase until that day. The evening I came back home and was about to put it back to the box, right then I saw something that I never paid attention to before: some mint green overlay details! The ink is somewhat like gum on top of silk surface. Fascinating!

I have seen matte white, matte grey, and silvery overlay, but never saw mint green! And I never noticed it on the scarf until then! It's that moment that I felt horrible about my scarf buying habit. I kept buying scarves like checking off wishlist, but once I had obtained the scarf, I didn't pay enough attention that the scarves deserve. I started to wonder if I'm buying to hoard or buying to admire and use? Am I a horrible scarf owner!
Anyway, moral of the story is: WEAR ALL SCARVES!!!!!! No more pickling!

Thanks! I found the howto on her blog. It's pretty easy once you get it ;)

Thanks to everyone else who complimented me. I'm in a hurry, so I can't go back and find all names, but thanks!

Momasaurus, just to be clear, it was Orgauphone, not Point d'orgue.

Seton, your TBs are gorgeous. You make me crave forea cashmere (note to self: keep money for PdO mousseline)

Croisette, as always, thanks for showing your collection! I love how you staged your scarves by 2 to complete the design.

Paula24jen, beautiful Feux, thanks for sharing the details about the cws! I must be blind, I don't see the jacquard on your Cosmos! But it's funny, I'm wearing almost exactly the same today.
