Scarves Special Edition Scarves

[marietouchet]

90cm Voitures Exquises is the design for the Queen's Platinum Jubilee scarf that was shared by @LolaWhisp here. Total of 500 pieces for sale beginning mid-May as part of the Royal Windsor Horse show, available at the event, UK stores and online.

Those in Australia and possibly Canada might want to enquire with their store on availability as the previous special edition scarf for the Queen was available on the countries website as well, if I recall correctly.

Hmmm seems to be a tribute to the Duke of Edinburgh ? Famous for carriage driving and dark green was his livery color.

@papertiger totally jelly here! I have texted my SA and I am crossing my fingers and toes, I have been (gently) reminding her every few months that I am desperate for this scarf.... I hope Australia (Sydney store) gets enough so that I can get one!!!!

Still no word from my SA about this being available in Australia.... hoping that the 'silk ambassador' will work a miracle!

Hello ladies! Will the Queen's Platinum Jubilee scarf be made available for purchase outside of the UK? I would love to get my hands on this!

Eeeeeee! So excited for this scarf after missing the 90th birthday edition. I am stalking online and asking my poor, long suffering father to go to NBS next week when he is in town.

I bet QEII/Angela Kelly (her dresser) approved/vetted the design/cw , Hermes could not get away with a press release mentioning the jubilee otherwise

it would be just like her (or Angela) to say - I dont need another special issue Dieu et Mon Droit or Regina, can we do something else, maybe a veiled tribute to my late husband?

The last birthday/jubilee scarf was Tattersall, a horsy design - for which H did not do a custom design and garbled the name into the misspelled Tattersale

Terrible light here. It's still day-ish but the storm clouds are brewing. Tomorrow, I'll take more photos in proper daylight.









Edited to say. It has white but also 'platinum' (light-silver-grey) background squares to the carriages too

Do you have an option to purchase online?

If so check ahead and set up your day to get in the first call.

Some years ago I was out of the country for a special edition here & my wonderful DH who lives on the phone & loves a challenge, was able to get in the first call then buy the first scarf sold online.

Good luck!

Let us know how it falls out?

Picture makes the 'Moron Clair' look more apricot. The colours are more naturalistic.

And the price is wrong. Most 90s (including this) are now £370

Is your SA in the UK?

If so, she can send you remote payment via email and send the scarf. You will have to have someone sign for the scarf when it arrives, and the address needs to match the cardholder/s.

It seems like a true white too yes? Not the usual slightly off white?
