HERMES 140cm CASHMERE SHAWL - LES DOUZE LEOPARDS
by JIN KWON
I was first attracted to the burgundy in this scarf, but it was the leopard in the glasses that sealed the deal for me! Typically the naturel background is something I avoid like the plague (because it makes me look like I have the plague) but there is enough color to work for me. This goes marvelously with burgundy and with mustard yellow.
From the Hermes Story Behind:
It's time for these twelve leopards to rest. All of them laze around, half hidden by the foliage or slumbering in the center of a strange open-air workroom. All of them? No! One of them has put on a pair of glasses and is enjoying the contents of a mysterious book, while another is exploring scrolls in a box. The Korean artist Jin Kwon creates a dream in the spirit of the folding screens of her country, at the heart of a jungle where sophistication and curiosity abound. The abundance of vegetation is matched by the countless knick-knacks, pots and notebooks in the colors of Hermès: a fascinating disarray that fades away on the reverse of this double face scarf to reveal the silhouette of these surprising felines.
