Scarves ........The Hermès Fall/Winter 2021 Scarves...........

This is not a AW21/Covid specific issue. The staggered stock intake has been part of their strategy for a few years now (along with colour families etc).

I think it's silly (on their part) because I think I end-up buying less each season but, c'est logic d'Hermes

Well, unfortunately it seems like Eleftheria is available everywhere else except the US, so I am assuming it's not the staggered delivery issue. It's really kind of annoying. I am lucky I have a friend in Paris who just picked up both of the colorways I am looking for.

I assumed last season for Space Derby that it was a production issue (despite the fact that they created the enamel bracelet, a necklace, and a very special watch based on the Space Derby design - I mean, WTH, we can't buy the scarf???), but I cannot imagine why the US SMs would assume we wouldn't want this.

I don't know if any of you have read my latest article, and this is admittedly slightly off topic to Fall Scarves but relevant to being able to purchase them, but Hermès, for all of its concerns about relationships and savor-faire (my new drinking game: take a shot every time I read that term in an Hermès Corporate document), seriously needs a formal venue for feedback - not complaints (which are often too specific to be useful to them), but real-time feedback.

Sammy Royal, I am glad to have inspired you to pull the trigger on this beautiful CW of the Bingata twilly. I usually buy more colorful twillys, but this one is so lovely I could not resist.
Thrilled to be triplets with you guys on this! I purchased 2-3 weeks ago, but for various reasons havent posted new purchases lately. I got the bright pink colorway of this design as well.

So true @Notorious Pink, I second every word. I'd happpily decide which of all available designs and CWs I(emphasis on I) like the best and not let a Shop Manager decide for me, who, crazy fact, turns out to be on the other spectrum of taste.
I even can't count how many times I saw really vibrant, funny, amazing designs and CWs on the US site, only for US custoomers or available in parts of Asia only - as I wasn't lucky ordering from H.com US (or Brazil or...), going to the boutique and clearly seeing the collection, selected by another person, based on assumptions what "works" and what "won't work in the market" (well, we saw it, Hermès, didn't you just host a bigh sale in Munich? So, the market obviously tells you, that, if no or lesss tourists will visit my city, those designs will be sitting on the shelves and customers move on to the website which has at least a greater variety of designs and scarves...) . Sadly that means most of the times a total miss for me in my home store. I stopped going there to browse because I already know it is a waste of time, for me , which I find pretty sad, tbh.

@ Eleftheria and Space derby: both still available as well on the H website as in Hermès stores in Europe. Don't know if and if yes how you can order from there, but we have plenty of stock.
 
Anyone have mod shots of this CW of Grand Theatre?

Thank you so much! annal0ve.h on IG has a great post with viddie - so I ordered it. Stay tuned here!
I ordered it too With my SA. Although it is on h.com. It is very hard for me to not buy it online and wait For it to come into my store. Especially since there are many that I order with her and I don’t actually end up getting them. They just don’t come in. But granted I have only been a customer since December 2019 And covid hit. I will by crushed if I don’t get my choice grand theater. Especially since it looks like the Greek one is a bust in the US.

agree! The US or just my store just doesn’t get many of the scarf colors I like the most. I actually haven’t bought many in store from browsing. Only 3 gavs and one maxi twilly I think. All the others were just me going to pick up my reserved/ordered ones And see if anything else is there to buy. And believe me I have tried haha. Been there an hour and half minimum when I had my appointments For pick up just checking out colors on me and trying on.
 
So, in spite of the simple colors, I am a sucker for celestial designs. My first scarf of the season arrived this afternoon, the double face Clair de Lune in CW08, noir, jaune d'or, bleu. The fourth color is white. I wasn't able to photograph the entire side of the scarf, but I got most of it. The yellow is orange enough that I think this would be a great fall scarf. The blue is a lovely medium blue. I hope you find these photos useful.

Thanks so much for posting this with mod shots. I have ordered this from my SA & fingers crossed it will come in to my boutique without flaws (first design of the double sided C'est La Fete was a disaster ), then I will be off to get my golden pearl parure out of the bank to wear with it......
 
Was having a hard time choosing between CW 06 and 016, but this one came home with me :)

It is stunning! Perfect example of a design working much better as a CSGM.. Such lovely colors!

Started small... :smile: Thank you, dear @art nouveau for your lovely pix which enabled me not to wait but pull the trigger immediately! Bingata Twilly cw 07 - even more lovely IRL... ❤️

So lovely! Amazing CW

Scarf mail! When this one was released in the 90 I started saving because I knew if they ever made it in a CSGM I'd have to have it, and after pondering for a few weeks between my top 3 choices for it, I am happy to make this Danse des Amazons CW 13 Rouge Vert Multipcolor mine. The colors are fabulous. I love the pinks and mint greens in this, combined with the blue and other brights and all the wonderful symbologies on the scarf. (Guest appearances by my own little lion- Finn. :love: )

So wise of you to wait as this design shines as a CSGM… Adore your CW! So many amazing colors that work so well together… Perfect for you

Hi! So on Eleftheria- my sa offered to do a worldwide search for it for me, confirming again that there are 0 in the US. @marietouchet - the Hermes Instagram currently has pret 70cm as its pic. Maybe it’s coming out? @bunnycat i love your CSGM and happy to be sisters! Yours is one I almost got - stunning. I too have some men’s scarf mail. DH already wants to borrow it which means I won’t see it again. Also shown a new Bastia in Jaune bourgeon.
Sure thing momoc! I can’t show myself today - I’m a hot mess but hopefully these give you an idea at the navy vs turquoise sides.
Love, love, love this adorable design and this is a marvelous CW… So beautifully styled, too!

Oh so amazing! This scarf is a must for me this season. Love this CW on you, and the theme is perfect for you
 
This is an interesting matter that I had to investigate immediately! I compared my two double face scarves (Wow and Formule Chic) to Projets Carrés (A/W 2007). All three have exactly the same weight: 67 gram. Even if my scale isn't correct, it shows at least the same weight for all three. They all feel equivalent in the hand.
@Redbirdhermes
Last time I weighed any, they were older and heavier eg 69-71 grams each
must rummage for new unused ones, and recalibrate my scale, after all, a 3 g error is like 5 percent, and we are nothing if not accurate HS detectives LOL.

A marvellous design and I like how the two sides are in the same colour family but certainly different enough to go together beautifully while giving you two distinctly different options. And it looks great with your golden pearl pendant!

Great article, thanks so much for the info. Which colourways of Eleftheria have you ordered from Paris? I am very tempted to purchase another, it is a work of art!! (Aren't they all?)
