Hi everyone, my thoughts on Samourai cw10 : it is rather muted in person. The mauve/parme are lovely and the ‘yellow’ in the stock photo is actually sauge. IMO it is a soft neutral colourway and to a purple lover like me, it is very pretty. Cw05 and 07 were also available at the same time. In comparison, 07 is bright and 05 is darker but all are beautiful. Personally, I think 05 is probably universally the most popular to many in terms of wearability.

And yes, I will be getting cw 10 (leans cool) and 05 (leans warm). :smile:

CW10 has not come in yet but I would have loved to try. So far I think I like cw12 best but I wear CSGMs very much in the Winter at its coldest, cw12 seems so Spring. My heads spinning with the choices atm with none grabbing me 100%
 
My SA said it could have something to do with the new printing method and that the shawl should get fluffier with body heat and a bit of sweat. Although I thought isn't that the characteristic of cashmere?

New printing method , that sounds interesting.
I’ve never considered how cashmere and silk is printed, though for silks I wonder if many of them are digitally printed now . Especially since so many don’t have saturated colour on the reverse
 
Congratulation BBC! So nice to be twins, isn't it grandios?

Another winner, Croisette! This looks stunning on you!

Are you thinking of the full set for the CSGMs? :graucho:
hopiko, many thanks, dear. I'm still waiting for # 01 and would like to see # 10 IRL.


What's crazy is when I came home DH surprised me with this - Della Cavalleria Favolosa 90cm in the SAME cw (also 03)! - checking the time on his receipt I don't know how I missed running into him at the boutique! [emoji28]

That could happen with my DH too, BBC! So funny! Your Favolosa is stunning.

Congratulations to you and @Croisette7 on such a fascinating cw.
Thank you, papertiger!

The noir CW of Planche d'Etude pour Une Parude de Gala from 17 AW pretty much had nothing on the reverse. He's mentioned this multiple times, new printing method --> thiner. But that's not my department and I have no idea what it means. But apparently it makes colors like white / gray possible or more precise (?).

CW 12 has a special spot in my heart too. There are many gorgeous CWs but I find the color combos on 12 the most unique that I think it could very well be my most worn Samourais. It could look vibrant with the green and orange, but it could also work as a neutral when you tie to show only the gray / taupe part or neutral with a bit of peachy delicate flower accents. Those peachy little flowers are so cute!

Thank you for your advice and experience with it so far, it really helps

EPIC FAIL

In lieu of sending hate mail to Bali Barret (which I am still considering) I have decided to amuse myself instead.

And if anyone at H corporate happens to be reading this, this is my opinion of your colorways this season.

Well, actually the epic fail photo of my opinion I can't post.....
But you can google "epic fail Christian Science building water main burst" and get the idea. [emoji38][emoji38][emoji38]

Agree 2018SS is epic fail but I have a harsher opinion than yourself - yes cws are bad but I give the designs (mostly) a C. Way too many remixes - very little in the way of innovative designs (PdS & Jasguar aside ...). Am tired of the words quadri, remix, abeille, quadrige, mors et gourmettes, bandana, love, tattoo and many more. And the classic reissues (Ex Libris) were an epic fail (I cannot take credit for that galactically appropriate evaluation) due to awful cws. I cannot believe there is no cw of Ex Libris that I need.
PS no one has to agree with me ... I am getting grumpy these days
