I knew that I would want one of the Iris mousselines from the title alone; my grandma grew irises in her garden, and they were my favorite of the plants she grew, so it's a special flower to me.

I tried on this exuberant colorway yesterday with a TPF friend and decided to go back for it today. I'm not 100% settled on it yet-- I need to see how it looks with my summer wardrobe, and I'm eager to see all the colorway options for the mousseline in this design-- but I absolutely love the tangerine and aqua in this colorway!

What a great mousseline. From the photos you show here, it looks like 3 different moussies!
 
Here are my additional purchases: Calvacadour (This one make me want to go out and buy and wear some red lipstick!) and Etude Pour Un Iris - love the pastels and I think it can be quite versatile, depending on what you wear and how tie it you can bring out the blues, the pinks, the greys...If teels like a spring scarf to me. Hope you enjoy!

Congrats Canuck! You have chosen 2 beauties! The Cavalcadour and the matching sweater are so gorgeous together!

Both are splendid on you. But I particularly love this Iris on you. This CW is like designed for you. Just gorgeous. Congrats!
 
Here's some additional info on cws. Not sure what's all been shown already but I figured it couldn't hurt to show it again. Was so thrilled that my store had the Coup de Fouet au Bloc Maxi Twilly Cut in several cws!! I can already tell this is going to be a multiple... :facepalm:View attachment 3582050 View attachment 3582051 View attachment 3582052 View attachment 3582053 View attachment 3582054 View attachment 3582055

Is the Coup de Fouet au Bloc Maxi Twilly in CW 14 basically the MT version of the 140 silk CW 03?

I have my eye on CdF 140 silk in CW 03 (blue and rouge H) and CW 02 (gray / yellow) for the season, but I'm quite certain I'm getting paperoles in pale blue / rouge H, which is quite similar color combo to the CdF CW 03. Maybe it will be a good alternative to get the MT CdF instead of the 140 silk, so that I have a good variety - format, color combo, design.
 
Bonjour dear scarfies!
Allow me to share my first acquisition from ss17. I knew I was going to like this design. But I am so much more thrilled than I expected. Its been quite some seasons since I have been captivated by the intricate, extremely fine and rich details of a design. I find this scarf truly amazing!

Oh, wow, this CW of Iris really brings out the lines beautifully. I have my eye on 2 other CWs, but you are making a case for this peach one. Beautiful on you!!
Edit: I can't enlarge your photo to see the CW. Is this 05? Peach or pink? Now I am confused!!

The 140 and the Maxi Twilly Cut are similar, however, the floral overlay on the 140 is not on the front of the Twilly, just the back.

The blue Paperoles is essentially light blue - dark blue - white - burgundy. The Coup de Fouet is those colors plus quite a lot of light pink and some light purple. I don't think they compete due to the size difference and the added colors - but if the choice is between the Coup MTC and the Coup 140 so as not to compete with the Paperoles, I would think the 140 would be more different than the MTC with regard to format.

Quite honestly, you need to try them on. For me, the 140 just looked better on than the MTC.

Thank you for the detailed pictures! It is so beautiful. My Maharani 90 is in a similar cw so I'll probably choose from the other ones. So many choices! Can't wait to see them IRL.

Lovely details so in keeping with Honore's style. I can't wait to see this one in person.
