Agreed pocketbook pup. Not a "pop of colour" shawl at all but definitely much brighter than the site photo, which really doesn't do it justice. [emoji4]

I wish your photographed c/w inspired H to create another one just as it appears on my screen Pautinka! Different soft grays, white, and a bit of purple!

I would have never in a million years chosen Le Mors c/w 01 from their online photo. But I had an instant positive reaction to seeing it IRL yesterday!Completely different, this is really yours:

But it looks even a bit like this oneView attachment 3454216
Good choice very probably unless I need a purple
So here are a few pics of my two, just to show the colours (I am no supermodel so please forgive the poses!!!!). I have put up two of the Dallet in 07 just to show how the coloured edge really makes a difference and gives it some va-va-voom.
By the way, when I was in Bordeaux buying the Mors I asked the SA if it is true that the cashmeres are finer this year, as I had read here. She said that the fabric is the same but that the finishing products that they use are different as some are no longer legal to use. Apparently this makes the fabric feel different.
These both look lovely on you. The info on the change in finishing products (I'm assuming by that they mean dyes) is interesting -- thanks for sharing!
Same here! I planned on buying Les Confessions until Balade en Berline brightened my day. It will become my office-gavroche, I like the fresh look.

I have the summer silk version of this exact cw from a few years ago, Croisette, and I cherish it (it was one of the last things my dear mother gave me). If it didn't already have three cws of Lalbhai in the summer silks from that season, I would have jumped on this. Looks beautiful on you!
Thank you. I wondered if they maybe sprayed it with a light sizing spray when it was finished. I notice that the Mors is plumping up more each wear and wondered if losing the "size" could have something to do with it.
This is pure speculation on my part, but I am guessing that the product changed may be what incidentally gave their shawls that addictive H factory fresh scent. Environmental protections for the workers (and indirectly, for us who consume) are something I nevertheless do embrace [emoji289][emoji173]️[emoji288]
This is fabulous on you.
I was offered it last month when i went to the store, and they just received a very few aw2016 items. I absolutely loved it: the colors, the patterns., the thicker twill (i am not a fan of the summer twill).
Then i tried it on and it did not love me back AT ALL
I was shopping with my sister who just gave me a stern look and said a firm "No". I was also wearing a tan dress that recalled some of the patterns! It was still a NO.
Don't you hate when that happens?
