Mousselines

I live in a hot climate. You'd think I'd have a ton of mousselines (maybe you call them chiffon, maybe you call them muslin). I do not. Back in The Day, Hermes made 90cm moussies,  45cm moussies (I have one!), even oblong stoles. Yes, I had several 90cm moussies and all have found new homes. These days the mousselines seem to primarily come in 140cm shawl size. Despite their light weight, I find them to be incredibly warm, just without the weight. So it feels lighter on my chest, but like an anvil on my neck. And I have a hard time styling them. Dagnabbit.

(If you see AMIM - that stands for "Ask Me, I Might"  - I might be willing to part with a silk beauty. Drop me a note if you're interested, and check out that which I've already decided to re-home.)
