The Savana Dance mousseline stole, CW 3 quetsche/ rose bonbon/ turquoise/ciel.
Yes, it has same giant label as the 90s.
Despite all the pastels this season, this has deeper colors. It has a bit more orange( but dark) than I expected. One pleasant surprise was that the leopard is beautiful blues, the monkey a charcoal black. The h.com pix do not show that part of the design! A very happy, summery CW. The pink is a very pretty deep pink.
Goes with turquoise, cornflower Blue, navy, black, cream, white.

In my bedroom, directly under the light fixture, box corner left in for color calibration:

See? Closeup:

The section that includes the circles is "navy". Reminder, here is the photo on h.com:

Ok, here is where it gets interesting. I took it to the window (grey day but natural light) and to my eyes it looked the same, maybe a little more contrast, but here is what the camera saw:

Look, I don't think I'm color-blind, but I swear that is not what it looks like in real life, even in natural light.

I'm contemplating if I need a black/black-to-the-visible-eye scarf. I am dubious.

ETA: I must admit, the lighting in my bedroom is apparently way off natural light, as you can see from the whites. I will think about my light bulbs.

I also thought this would be a dead cert for me and went to see it on Sat. I echo every word you say, sadly I left the 90 at the boutique.

You are too kind, Moma! Next time I’m at a store I will try on some “wash-me-out!” cws and take some pics just for you. [emoji12]
Is there a particular cw of Favolosa you’re considering? This is the one I was talking about - the colors are gorgeous but it’s too bold - you can’t see practically any elements of the design.

ETA: At second glance, maybe that’s just because of the way I tied it... will have to look at it again.

BUT - this is the same cw as the Sea Surf and Fun one.

And although Im chomping at the bit to see it, Modernisme Tropical 140 comes in a similar cw too.

Agree with BBC and others about why H would make all the cws so homogenized. This season’s designs are almost all hits, but color is equally important. Whoever made that decision should be flogged with a wet noodle. Or made to wear all the similar cws and forced to guess which is which while hooked up to a machine that gives ‘em a slight shock every time they get an answer wrong. Heh heh.

Thank you so much for letting me know! Do Hermès stores ship internationally? I'm asking because I live in Europe.

Hi @Thelittlefoxes, there are still a couple of colour ways on the European sites (7 & 14). Hth

And in total agreement re the new tags; they are ridiculous. No matter how you try to hide them, they are much heavier and the weight causes them to fall away from the scarf and be more visible. I hate cutting them off but may resort to this. Aargh!

This is gorgeous, scarf1! The Savana Dance gavroche was my first Hermès item ever - my boyfriend gave it to me as a birthday gift. So this design is colse to my heart and it has been put to great use as a moussie. The colours are just perfect for spring and summer but also wearable in the colder seasons.

I'd still look at the black/navy/white in the pareo version. There is also a more warm cw in the Pareo that may work well too.

It's turning out to be a very surprising season. So far I've bought a cw of JQ of I'd never even considered and surrendered my most certain cw/design combo.

Just goes to show, it's so much better to see scarves in person if you can.
