No longer just a scarf, countless creative ideas of showing off these art pieces have been shared over the years, e.g. framed and hung as home decor, several ways of converting it into various fashionable tops and skirts, neckties, belts.
Since 1937, the silk scarves of French fashion house, Hermès, has become an iconic fashion accessory that is recognized all over the world. Hermès scarves and shawls have been collected and adorned by celebrities and royals throughout history, from Audrey Hepburn to Grace Kelly and even Queen Elizabeth II.Â
Renowned artists are commissioned each year to create elaborate artworks with bright, vibrant color combinations. An individual scarf typically integrates 20 to 30 different hues, each printed from a unique silkscreen process that can take hundreds of hours to complete. Each one is painstakingly screen-printed, with each color allowed to dry before the next is applied. These art pieces have proved to be timeless collectable pieces of history.
DESIGN HISTORY:
This carré depicts three pieces from a recent fine jewelry collection by Pierre Hardy for Hermès. Inspired by jewelers' working drawings, Florence Manlik presents the exquisite detail of Hardyâs designs, for our tireless appreciation: each gem in its setting, each gold link in astonishing relief and a presence enhanced by the hint of the designerâs hand at work â a jewel in the making. The pieces draw on diverse influences: the equestrian world is clearly evoked, as is a celebration of the Carré in all its glory, as they take their names from three Hermès classics: Brides de Gala, Della Cavalleria and Grand Apparat. Necklaces, tiaras, earrings and bracelets are arranged in a harmonious design, as if placed directly on a square of silk.
