Hermès, the luxury label famous for its scarves, has now brought out a book on it. The brand has always held that their product is about “the scarf as a world of shapes" and "the scarf as a philosophy of color." The description of the project, in Hermes’s own words, says, ‘Each Hermès scarf tells a story: this volume is their anthology. Created as an artist’s book, it transposes the scarves instead of merely picturing them. It magnifies their charm while preserving their ethereal grace. It narrates, through images and text, the existence of the now mythical silk twill “carré’. The book has been put together by Nadine Coleno, an art and architecture writer and is published by Editions du Regard and costs €84.
