Hi- I'm a total newbie for Hermes. Just over the weekend I saw a super cute scarf display on the Hermes store in NJ Riverside Square Mall. It's a Chinese zodiac design represents the year of snake. Can some one tell me is this a limited edition only this design for 2013 or Hermes have the entire zodiac line for sale?
Do you know if they're will be a regular version aswell? I was looking forward to it!
That is the Year of the Serpent gavroche, or pocket square. H issues one each year, each corresponds to the Chinese zodiac for that year. They have a serpent bag charm as well.
I was under the impression that Grand Tenue would be a women's GM, so we have yet to see that version.
The version in the pic might be a C/S 90, or a men's 90 or 140, since it has fringed edges.
This version looks like a men's Imprimeur fou to me, because there is something else going on in the design with the paint splatter. The Imprimeur fou (insane printer) designs are always a little off - Sequences had a screen at a 90 degree angle, and an earlier IF 90 was a mash up of Ex Libris and Couvertures.
Yes, that's what I thought.... I hope there will be a women's version aswell, I'm not to fond of the Imprimeur Fou.
Yes, the paint spatter in the background reminds me of Cheval Surprise which must a design about 10 years old or so by now. Personally I love the imprimeur fou series and this particular shade of grass green is very attractive for spring. But that linen scarf with the blotches like coral growth is a winner for me. But my tryst with A/W 12 comes to an end tomorrow when I can open what Santa brings - Merry Christmas and happy hunting in the New Year everybody.
The GM Grande Tenue looks like it's a men's GM, from the clouring and fringed border.......
Is there a picture of this? I've searched the thread and haven't found it.
Its on the previous page, second photo in this post: http://forum.purseblog.com/hermes/the-spring-2013-scarves-769786-28.html#post23568764
Oh,
ush:. I had it confused with a different design, went right past that image about 5 times. Thanks, Cosmopolitan.
This season is looking fairly uninspired. As others have mentioned, the shoes are downright awful. As far as the scarves go, H is not giving us much to work with.
Those tennis scarves look like something from a country club tennis shop, circa 1975...
I've got Echec on my list, but nothing else at the moment. The border of Bateaux is wonderful, but it doesn't seem quite right with the boats in the field, perhaps it will look better in a different cw. Much remains to be seen, but I sense that overall this will be a dud of a season. I expect I'll save some money this year, which isn't a bad thing...
Agreeing with the previous comments...going through Rome a few days ago, they had several of the SS13 season designs in (both the 70 and 90). I had a chance to see Ors bleus d'afriqe, jeux d'Hermes, mors a la conetable and the reissue in the 70 of the golf club scarf (like the previous comment about the tennis one, it's an ode to the country club circa 1975) and one with the ladies drawn on it...sorry but I've forgotten the names of the last two. It's a matter of taste but I agree that it's uninspired and nothing grabs. I love ethnic scarves so Ors bleus could be one for me but only if I just must buy something although the colors I just saw were not for me either. I wish had some photos to share but couldn't snap any...like a previous poster, looks like I just might save some money during SS13 if what I've seen here and IRL is anything to go by...
juda do you know anything more about the BDG piece? Is is embroidered or sequinned or one of the regular 90 x 90 s?Monceau thanks a lot for the link, I finally got to see the exceptional piece in 90 - BDG - i was dying to see it
Glad to know i am not the only one who only likes the borders not the entire scarf. I really like the borders.
Thanks for drawing our attention to it -- sucha nice scarf!
