Kermit Oliver Hermes Scarf Collection

2004 F&W COLLECTION "SOIE BELLE" - PATCHWORK

2004年の秋冬ｽｶｰﾌｺﾚｸｼｮﾝで「ソワベル」シリーズが発表されました。中でもめずらしいのは「パッチワーク」です。
アメリカでの評判は
「やっとエルメスも売れ残りを焼き捨てる以外の利用法を見つけたのね」だの
「醜い」「もらってもいらない」「山岳民族の民芸品のパッチワークのほうがまし！」
とさんざんなようです。
1950/60/70/80年代と2004年の代表的なｽｶｰﾌがﾊﾟｯﾁﾜｰｸされている、遊び心満載のデザインだと思うのですが。
継ぎ目は裏からも全くわからないほど丁寧に処理されていて、その分お値段も高くなっています。

2004/05/21 2004 Fall & Winter Scarf "Sois Belle" series's been announced in Japan today. There's a very unique design called "Patchwork".A scarf is made of 5 pieces from different scarves. Brides de Gala(1957) COUVERTURES ET TENUES DE JOUR(1960) TIGRE ROYAL(1977) PANI-LA SHAR PAWNEE(1984) H cinetique(2004) I found 2 patterns of colorway and size. Brown colors and multicolor. 90X90cm Carre and 28X183cm "Echarpe" Each piece has different parts of 5 designs. So it's hard to find the best combination for ones taste. As a collector of Kermit Oliver designs, I couldn't resist to buy 4 of them that include "PANI-LA SHAR PAWNEE" full image!. Here's some description for the material from Hermes "This scarf was fashioned using a special process developed in our workshops, resulting in an unusual look and feel. Soft,fluid and very slightly downy,the silk acquires a patina effect that makes each piece unique."
2004 F&W HERMES SCARF COLLECTION "SOIE BELLE"SERIES'S BEEN FEATURED IN JAPANESE MAGAZINES "LEON"AND "MISS" SEP.ISSUE.
