The border is there! It's a little hard to see in this pic b/c the colors are so similar, so it doesn't stand out that much. Plus, from the angle of the pic, the bottom border is obscured by the edges of the scarf, so you can really only see the top border.

I highlighted the border here too for clarification. It is definitely there as you mentioned. :flowers::hugs:

This wasn't on my radar but you and moma are making me consider this seriously! Excited about CSGMs!

Wait a minute. Are we talking about the same scarf? I was referring to the one next to the UFO.

The circled one,

It reminded me of some parts of the Pelages er Camouflage pattern

And a bit of the Ors Bleus d'Afrique vibe (photo courtesy: Hermès.com)

Yes this scarf does seem to echo Ors Bleu d'Afrique but the curves in the bottom section just yell Duomo in Florence to me and it seems to have bits and pieces of houses/huts and architectural detail - can't wait to see it close up.

First I’m not sure is it a news or not? or the spring thread would be better ?
http://www.harpersbazaar.com.sg/90689/hermes-newest-scarf/
but after searching spring scarves thread with the key –word “centered rhyme” or “elaine-lustig-cohen” have not found any results

This is what's up on the Us website: http://usa.hermes.com/la-maison-des-carres/carre-twill-100-soie-90cm-centered-rhyme-137415.html
"Elaine Lustig Cohen (1927 - 2016) was an artist, graphic designer, and founder of Ex Libris, a bookstore specialising in the 20th century avant-garde. In 1955, she began her design career in New York by extending the idiom of European modernism into an American context for a diverse clientele of publishers, cultural institutions, corporations, and architects. As a painter, Lustig Cohen developed a hard-edged style in the 1960s and 1970s that asserted the canvas’ flat surface. She continued to experiment with bold colors and abstract shapes in a variety of media including collage and three-dimensional objects. Philip Johnson - architect of the celebrated Glass House (1949) in New Canaan, Connecticut - became Lustig Cohen’s first client when he commissioned her to design to the lettering and signage for the Seagram Building. The two forged an important bond that resulted in a variety of projects for the Glass House, Yale University, and Lincoln Center, among others. Inspired by Lustig Cohen’s 2015 exhibition of painting and graphic design at the Glass House, Pierre-Alexis Dumas, artistic director of Hermès, met the artist and conceived of a scarf based on her painting Centered Rhyme (1967). This project was made in collaboration with The Glass House (and a portion of the proceeds from the sale of the scarf will go towards the preservation of this iconic modernist house, a site of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.)"
And the website says expected delivery May.
But it looks like from pictures posted that it will be issued for the Fall in different cws? Kind of like the Canada scarf? A special issue and than a general release?

I second that moma and wish Brides de Gala would take a rest.....Iconic yes, but every season a new iteration? Yawn-it is not a fave for me and having one is more than enough. Can we bring back ELeK or LFaSDV or Temari?
I do like UFOs/Super H though.....

Count me in
So many great scarfs and they just sticks to BdG. Every season....
And this half'n'half prints... I'm really disappointed in this collection.:confused1:

I am just noting my interest in that beautiful cw on the far right. Possibly model ships in bottles? Or maybe messages in bottles, all saying "Save your pennies, we are coming"!!!

That panel does look interesting! But is this something of a five-scarves-in-one design? They generally look confusing to me. :sad: But we'll see...! :amuse:
