Hermes, the iconic Paris based fashion manufacturer, is continuing to thrive in the luxury market. Heading into the winter seasons, the company is beginning to release their latest weather appropriate stylistic clothing and accessories. While Hermes is known for specializing in the production of leather goods, that should not distract shoppers from the amazing high quality clothing products they are putting out as well. The company’s latest product release was for a limited edition scarf that features an equestrian theme (seen above), that highlights the inspiration for a majority of their products while adding a fresh and unique design to the scarf.
The horse theme for Hermes comes from their beginning, when the company was originally founded. They started out initially as a horse saddle manufacturer, which got the company into the leather goods market and eventually caused the spin towards fashion products. Ever since, their logo has been a horse drawn carriage and it has become a staple part of Hermes identity.
Their latest scarf, which features a very interesting horse on it made from patches of different cloth, is made from outstanding quality silk. Hermes is known for the premiere quality of their luxury scarves, and this newest one continues the streak. The design was originally created in 2006 by Bali Barret, and is very detailed, to the point where the scarf’s background is a complex pattern of small horseshoes.
The new Hermes equestrian scarf is very limited, and only 300 are being produced. The 90cm blue silk looks fantastic and feels amazing as well, offering the best combination of style and comfort. Hermes is even taking this one step further, and using the scarf to raise money for supporting the welfare of horses globally. The scarf costs $500 and will be available at various Hermes stores throughout the United Kingdom and also Ireland. The new equestrian horse scarf will definitely not be on shelves for long, especially with the money going towards rescuing and finding safe homes for neglected and abused horses.
