HERMES SILK TWILLY- DAME DE COEUR
by PIERRE MARIE
It took me longer than I care to admit to realize the playing cards didn't feature traditional face cards. If I had realized this I would have hit that Buy Now button even faster (poetic license; I actually purchased this in the boutique). What I loved was the stitched silk and the rhinestones - no basic twilly for me! There was an entire 2022 capsule collection of exceptional-ish versions of the scarf (originally issued in 2011): a 70cm with an embroidered eyelet, and a nano losange also with an embroidered eyelet.
From the Hermes Story Behind (the original 90cm was titled Dame de Coeur a Vous l'Honneur):
The creator for Hermes of a deck of cards populated with mythical creatures, here the designer of this scarf leads them in a graceful dance. Surrounded by a whirl of coloured ribbons, all encircle and protect the joker, the champion of their victory! No serious matter, earth, water, air and fire have a more playful demeanor. Humorous and dreamlike world in which fish smoke pipes and lady dragons contemplate their reflection in a mirror. In the world of the air the queen becomes a dove. In the earth, she transforms into a small dog of slender snout. If the Jack of Spades takes the form of a charming seahorse in the world of water, the King of Diamonds, master of the world of fire, wears a smile...like a crocodile.
Pierre Marie's Dame de Coeur design is printed on the stitched silk fabric. The small clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades of this design are enhanced with rhinestone details.
