Couple o mod shots. I think the pink side looks the best on me (unexpected). So I may exchange this one for a different color.

And Jaguar Quetzal. CW 01 (vert/rose/camel) richer and darker IRL than the stock pics of the silk but the tones themselves are fairly accurate. The body stripes and spots seem very very dark grey, not black. And that could just be me, or that I know that no such thing as black silk dye exists (you have to paint it black).

Thank you! Sure thing! The lighting in our house is not so good, but hopefully this helps.

Thank you! These are definitely my colors.
IMHO, the more muted colors are more suitable for a work environment or other setting where tailored clothing is worn. The others IMO are pretty splashy, they make a statement. They verge on being special occasion accessories. But, on the other hand, the splashy ones can be twisted and bunched to tone down the striking effect of a Zebra Pegasus, to name one of a couple of years ago.It sounds like a labor of love!But yes, your chart was very useful to me and I really do thank you! I was able to find all the CWs I wanted and this was late October/early November that I began hunting. 01, 13, and 14 were the only ones I did not get. 13 I didn't want, 14 wasn't right for me, and 01 I never saw, but I wasn't terribly interested in it anyway. In the Ode to Samourai thread, it sounds like it was an insanely popular scarf and people were having trouble getting their hands on some of the colors. So I feel quite lucky that I found as many as I did, and even two or three extras for 03 and 05 (will be gifting them for Christmas).
I'm new to the silks (wore only cashmeres in the past 4 years), but every time I read of a famous scarf pattern, I go look it up and add it to my list. Will have to look up Tohu Bohu, it's not the first time I've read this one.
It seems the older scarves looked more classic and less bright in terms of color? I went a little crazy buying many non-Samourai silks too, and while they're beautiful, I did notice that a lot of the color offerings were very bright in comparison to older scarves that had a more classic feel. I managed to pick out some more classic colors, but it seems like everything is bright and somewhat candy colored. Loads of pink.
Current scarves are still gorgeous, but my eye is slowly turning towards older scarves for the more muted colors...
@saranga, I hope to get a couple of the 2017 more muted ones, like the canes design. I hope they're still available when I go to get them. Tohu Bohu is a classic.
Many thanks, BBC, for this assortment. It makes it easier to hone in on a cw that's really right.
Ooooh bunnycat, congratulations!Two very special scarves. They both look great on you.There's only one thing that I know that arrives in silver packaging....

Just stopped by my local boutique. All of the JQ CWs in 90 look fabulous! I couldn't resist adding one to my collection
Thank you Pautinka! (I'm still deciding on the Iris....)
I love the chocolatey looking spots on the cat in CW 02!
