love this! makes me want to run to Hermès and treat myself a scarf

[@nlitenme]

Impressive Hermes scarf collection!

[@hazydreamer7965]

How lucky you are to own all those beautiful scarves. I share the weakness of scarves. I guess I have appr. 35 to 38 scarves. I have modern Scandinavian silk scarves and some old and/or new Hermes scarves, too. As I have been lucky to live in 4 different European countries, I have a nice collection of French (by most fashion houses) and Italian silk scarves. I have turned this into a hobby, meaning I prefer now and then to look for pre-loved silk scarves from the 1920s to 1960s. I love old scarves, especially from fashion houses that no longer exist. And you are right, - they are easy to keep in clear bags.

Imagine if we cared more about widows and orphans

So empty and sad, cannot beat Makcik Rosmah’s 10,000 Birkin Hermes bags collection.

Boycott chibese

Those $$$$$$ spent on feeding hungry children will be meaningful and practical !!

[@user-li6bw9rn1z]

Not sure what’s the point of this show apart from someone showing off her wealth? Just totally irrelevant to the society at large.

Honestly, Hermes is totally overrated, it's almost embarrassing for me to wear their stuff once you understand their sales & marketing strategy. Only rich/dim women follows their "fashion trends", so don't buy into the bs... Their "exclusive" marketing strategy is like this: the more Hermes stuff you buy, the more "credits" you accumulate at their internal sales system to "be deemed qualify" to buy a Birkin or Kelly etc. But you can buy brand new Hermes bags anywhere in Tokyo from prestigious luxury retail stores. So why bother spending $$$$ on those useless stuff. *FYI It's illegal, against the law, to sell fake luxury stuff in Japan, so the quality is guaranteed authentic. Besides, NO one can tell you're wear a Hermes silk scarf co'z their logo is usually so damn small. People spend $$$$ on luxury to be "seen" for the personal value. So Chanel & LV are better in terms of quality & value compared to Hermes in this category, except handbags, Birkin & Kelly are good investments that holds its value well, other luxury brand handbags loses up to 50% value once purchased... So in a way, I guess, thanks to those rich/dim women that support Hermes to keep holding up its handbags values.

[@kl12345-u]

The logic is like this, if I see a lady carries a Birkin or Kelly, while wearing Hermes bracelets/rings/necklaces/scarf/etc small items, I knew she spend lots of dumb $$$$ to accumulate "credits" to get that bag. That's not VIP experience at all, it just screaming "dumb & easy to scam"... You guys get it?! :)

[@mizzmolly7649]

I don't wear Hermes scarves "to be seen." They are beautiful and no one knows what I have on. Not everyone buys into that foolishness of amassing a bunch of Hermes stuff so you'll be offered a Birkin or Kelly. Some of my older scarves I buy on eBay for as little as $250 - never used and excellent condition. All from Japan.

[@kl12345-u]

@@mizzmolly7649 BTW, most luxury products say made in Italy or France, but they're just outsourcing to China factories or Chinese owned factories in Italy or France or EU. Ferragamo shoes for example are mostly made in Guangzhou shoes factories but labeled as made in italy.
