"HERMES" 80's Carré 90 Les Champignons II silk scarf

Starting as a saddlery workshop near the Madeleine Church in Paris, the company has been promoting the "tradition of craftsmanship" and "the joy of travel."

We would like to introduce you to some very precious pieces from HERMES, which is based on this concept.

This masterpiece features an impressive composition of various mushrooms quietly nestled in the margins, as if they had been torn out of a page from an old botanical encyclopedia.

Françoise de la Perrière's meticulous depiction of a wide variety of mushrooms is arranged on a beige background, with motifs of small poisonous and edible mushrooms, fallen forest leaves, and moss all breathing together within the piece, making it a wearable art piece. The dark-toned border that surrounds it is painted with a touch reminiscent of the forest floor in France, and neatly frames the world of mushrooms unfolding in the center, giving the overall impression an elegant finish.

This is Les Champignons II, a reworked version of the classic 1959 work Champignons, which was released in the 1980s when it was back in the spotlight. While respecting the worldview of the original, the colors and white space have been made more gentle, resulting in a balance that makes it easy to incorporate into modern fashion, and this is where it has great added value.

The motif is intellectual, yet somehow humorous, and has a depth that is like a "fable for adults." You can directly feel HERMES' specialty of "elevating nature as art."

The generous size of the 90cm scarf makes it stand out like a piece of wall art when unfolded, but when folded into a triangle and wrapped around the neck, the mushroom motif peeks out randomly, and when worn as a headscarf, it adds soft shadows and a sense of storytelling to the face. The supple, flowing fabric creates a beautiful drape even with just one knot, and the visible motif changes every time you fold or tie it, so it's a scarf that you can enjoy looking new every time.

This piece will appeal to those who like classic designs with a nature motif, as well as those who are looking for an item that does not have an overly bold logo or pattern, but that suddenly tells a story when viewed up close. It's a scarf that can be chosen with the persuasive power that only HERMES can offer, whether you want to add a touch of intelligence and playfulness to your everyday outfit, or as a gift for someone who loves art or books.

In terms of styling, wrapping it casually around a long coat or simple knit and pairing it with neat slacks will create a calm, modern look that can be enjoyed by both men and women, while adding it around the neck as a focal point with a minimalist dress or set will give the whole outfit a more classic look. Furthermore, when wearing it as a jacket, loosely tying it to the handle of a bag so that the mushroom print peeks out as you move is another appealing way to add a natural artistic flair to your everyday outfits.

Please take this opportunity.
