HERMES FLAMINGO PARTY COTTON PAREO FOR SALE - by TOUTSY

I don't think any scarf artist does feathers and foliage quite like Laurence Bourthoumieux ("Toutsy"). I've become a huge fan of Hermes pareos - the cotton is incredibly breathable and easy to iron, and the sheer volume of fabric lends itself to a variety of fun knots, and makes them wearable long past summer. 

The centerpiece of the scarf are two pink flamingos with outstretched wings. They are curving their long necks and touching beaks to make a valentine shape, making this a 'lovely' romantic design.

The flamingos are surrounded by green and blue and purple palm fronds and foliage, with coral hibiscus flowers, oranges and other tropical flora. The black background makes the colors pop, and the rich lemon yellow sides hold everything together in a gorgeous frame.

From the Hermes Story Behind:
The flamingos, these large birds of a strange beauty, launch themselves once a year in a long courtship which will bring them together, two by two... until the following year. Playing with their long neck incredibly supple and graceful, with their haughty gait, their wings smoothed with application, males and females observe each other, brush against each other and gauge each other for hours. Wings outstretched, united in a fiery head to head, the two birds of this square, surrounded by palms, orange trees and tropical flowers, celebrate in their own way the Florida where they were born, where many animals live such as alligators, American panthers, lynxes, manatees and flamingos...

This 100% cotton delight was made in Switzerland and has machine-stitched hems, as do all Hermes pareos. It is enormous, measuring roughly 54" x 66". Wear it as marketed as a beach cover-up, or fold and knot in any number of ways.

I see no flaws, but there remains the lingering scent of the fragrance its original owner used which has faded over time but not completely disappeared. Ships in an orange Hermes box.

$340 including US shipping. Zelle preferred. Shipping outside of the US has become very expensive and I'm happy to provide a quote, but also know that any tariffs or import duties are the responsibility of the buyer.

Yes, I'm interested!
