The Twilly and Hermes Handles

Hello loves,

I’m not sure if this thread should be merged to the Twilly and Hermès handles thread because that forum seems to be more on the “post photos and share” twilly’s on the handles. But I’m posting this because I need experienced experts on twilly handles. So, please do if this needs to be merged.

Anyway, I‘ve never been the type to wrap a twilly on my kelly or birkin. I have, however, hung a twilly on my cabalicol just to spice things up a bit. Now, I just ordered two new twillies and I plan on using those on my kelly and birkin since I’ve been using a lot more hand sanitizer than I used to and I don’t want it getting on the leather. I just have a few questions:

1. Do the Twilly’s unwrap after a few hours of toting the bag around?

2. Do you feel twilly’s attract more attention? Or does it scream “look at me”?

3. Does it damage the twilly after long term use? (Considering the rubbing of silk that’s tightly wrapped)

I would love to hear your thoughts and opinions. Thank you so much in advance!

XOXO,

1. If secured properly, it does not unwrap itself.. i wrap mine once and they stay on for months until i decide to change them again.
The way I do it is:
a. fold the twilly in half so it is equal
b. place the middle part of the twilly on the center of the handle
c. wrap one side tightly (with some overlap) until i get to the end of the handle
d. make the last round of wrap loose and bring the end of the scarf from the top through the middle of the loose twilly and pull downwards to create a knot
e. repeat for other side :)

2. I choose colors which go well with the bag, almost same color palette so it adds a nice touch. I've even had compliments from guys who have 0 knowledge of bags saying the scarf adds a nice touch

3. I never damaged a twilly from wrapping it - i think silk is pretty durable and can handle it. The only way I damaged one twilly is when a tiny chip in my nail got caught in the scarf :(

I hope this was useful :flowers:

Thank you so much! I’ll try wrapping it that way. I’ve only tried it by making a knot on one side and twirling until it reaches the other side.

I’ll be matching my twilly with the color of the bags too! I just hope it doesn’t scream for much attention (which is the reason I’ve been avoiding twilly’s on my handles) At this point, I’m just thinking of the twilly as a necessity to avoid product from getting on to the leather.

Thank you!

My answers:
1. No
2. I don’t think so. But I notice more older people look at me (especially men) when I wear H bags compared to any other brands. And some smile at me. Idk if I look more attractive with H bags? lol
3. Twilly gets dirtier but I haven’t noticed damage.

I agree :heart: ... That’s my favorite twilly for my noir Bolide.

Did you purchase yours recently?
I haven’t seen any appear on the Hermès website in a long time.



My Kelly with jungle love rainbow twilly in black/grey color (I think that’s the name). It was actually not easy to match the twilly. I used other twillies before being satisfied with this one.

Could someone please identify the name of this twilly. I am really interested in getting one.

It looks like the camails twilly:

The color that you are looking for should be Na/beige/noir/rose, H063358S 11
