Bought 2 shawls during my recent trip to Paris

I struggled to take pics of the navy blue CLF 140cm and didn't capture the colour accurately. It's something between Bleu de Preusse and Bleu Nuit. This pic is with my little indigo picotin. The cashmere feels soft but thinner than before. The silk however was a pleasant surprise, much better than my Tapis Persans.

Hope to add a colourful CLF with black details some day to my collection. I like the design very much. I'm not a " tiger person" but the face doesn't really show so much when carried. The blue details are more turquoise than blue. Love the wide black hem.

The turquoise in your TR is so lovely, Serva1! Also love the navy blue ClF, especially with your indigo Pico -- good match! :)

Thanks so much for the CW number, Serva. I saw this at the H SFO store but always like to buy items from my local SA.
The problem is that I must know exactly what I am looking for so that she can have them transferred into our H. :hugs:

Glad if I could help : hugs. Found the ref.nr on the European website H671632S 12 of which the last two digits show the cw number 12. I didn't find the tag, my bags were so full that I have to pick up the boxes for my two shawls on my next trip to Paris [emoji3]

Serva - Your picks are beautiful !! I'm not a Tiger person too but I love the Turquoise stripes. H has the best blue shades and this is one that captures my attention from this Fall collection. Sad to hear that the cashmere feels even softer ! Hate to see that H cut down on quality when they cannot raise prices. The shawls in the past two seasons were already thinner than they were years ago. I can't see how much thinner they can get.

Thank you [emoji3]
I've been lately examining the Loro Piana quality...but haven't bought any yet, since I'm so loyal to H. The turquoise stripes in the TR make my heart sing too and I love the silk. I used to buy MTs but since they changed the format I lost interest. Love thick silk [emoji173]️ around my waist.

Even if I'm a cashmere girl I'm actually looking forward to the next season and a possible new big silk. Have to get a scarfring in horn and start experimenting. I'm such a newbie with H shawls. Glad there are so many collectors that contribute here on tPF.

Thanks so much, Serva. I can offer one piece of advice with wearing the 140cm silks ~ I use MaiTai's shawl rings and they are perfect for the large silks which can be somewhat slippery to wear. :heart:

I have also been looking into Loro Piana! My favorite H scarves are not silk but the wool/silk combine New Libris collection. I currently have 4 and can't live without them during Fall/Winter season. But those Loro Piana scarves are soooo tempting!

chkpfbeliever, this is an issue with me as far as buying CSGM shawls and mine are prone to snagging and little pulls in the fabric.
Just to note: am super careful when wearing them and I love their look but I would like them to be near perfect even after a few times of wearing them. At $1K per item, I do expect some durability.

On the other hand, the 140cm silks seem to last forever and always look perfect. After many years, I am tempted next season to just stick with the 140cm silks and skip CSGMs altogether.
