The shawls are slowly trickling into boutiques... I have seen other designs but not all and not Jungle Love, yet, however it's still so very early in the season.
Keep an eye out here to see what members are spotting in their boutiques as we head more into the new season.
You could also ask your SA what the boutique has ordered in for cws of Jungle Love and if there's one that appeals; ask if they would put it by for you when it does come in. But in my experience with my own boutique, they do not know ahead what exact designs are coming in each individual shipment in advance, their order gets filled in ecrements as the season progresses.

Thanks a lot for your information. Looking forward to fushia jungle love.

Actually it's not a fantasy garden, it's Leila Menchari's real garden of her house in Hammamet Tunisia: it must be one of the most beautiful gardens I have ever seen! You can find a lot of info about it if you Google it. There's also a book about it called "Un jardin à Hammamet" written by Michel Tournier. here are some pics:

Yes.. I knew that although I haven't seen it in real life (her garden) How wonderful that you have. I was referring to the fantasy gardens that she creates in the windows of Hermes with elements from her own gardens that she inherited from her benefactor~
Love that this scarf is a tribute both to her and the gardens of her home.

Oh I see, sorry! I totally agree with you, it's such a wonderful story: I'm really impatiently waiting for the shawl to appear at my local H!

julian, your reveal inspired me to research this scarf design further and I wanted to share this blog article on the actual gardens... it's a beautiful story:

Thank you so much for this link! I really enjoyed reading this story, it truly is beautiful, and it makes the scarf that much more special! I have a sneaking suspicion that I may get more than just one (and certainly a GM if the color is right!)

I really like this too-- can't wait to see the colorways.

I'd also like the entire outfit of the lady in the bottom right who's wearing a fuchsia bathing suit with flower wristlets, a flower headwrap, and a flower bustle-- but I might have to settle for its depiction on this silk instead. ;)
