Perfect for a theatre evening or gallery opening, the Hermès ‘Robe du Soir’ Carré 42 in multicoloured silk adds a polished, equestrian flair to any look—knot it at the neck to elevate tailoring or drape it with a sleek coat for refined sophistication.
Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What is the Hermès Carré 42 ‘Robe du Soir’ Silk Scarf? A: It is a compact square Hermès scarf crafted from 100% silk, featuring Florence Manlik’s ‘Robe du Soir’ motif—a stylised portrait of a horse created from cords and braids. The design debuted in 2018 and has appeared across different Hermès scarf formats.
Q: What are the dimensions of this piece and how does it compare to other Hermès squares? A: This scarf measures approximately 42 x 42 cm. Hermès pocket squares are often described as “45” but can measure around 42 cm due to the hand‑rolled hems; slight variations are normal from piece to piece.
Q: Is the Carré 42 size versatile and unisex? A: Yes. The 42 cm format works well as a jacket pocket square, a neat neckerchief, a hair ribbon or headband, a wrist wrap, or tied to a bag handle. Its scale and design make it suitable for all genders and a wide range of styles.
Q: What is included with this specific item? A: This listing comes with the original Hermès box and tag, as shown in the Accessories section and photos.
Q: What is the condition of this pre‑owned piece? A: It is described as Like New with only a light trace of use. Please review the images and condition notes for the most accurate representation.
Q: How should I care for the silk? A: We recommend professional dry cleaning. Keep the scarf away from water, rain, perfumes, and cosmetics; store it flat or loosely rolled, and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Do not leave it tightly knotted for long periods to prevent creases.
Q: Can I hand‑wash it at home? A: Some collectors carefully hand‑wash silk at their own risk, but to preserve the hand‑rolled hems, colour, and resale value, A Retro Tale advises professional cleaning only.
Q: How do I remove creases safely? A: Light creases may relax with gentle airing. For stubborn creases, use a cool iron on the reverse with a pressing cloth, avoiding direct pressure on the rolled hems—or entrust to a professional cleaner.
Q: How do you verify authenticity? A: Authentic Hermès scarves feature hand‑rolled hems stitched toward the front (printed side), crisp and well‑registered printing, the “Hermès Paris” signature within the design, and often the artist’s signature and a care label. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous multi‑point authentication.
Q: Where is this scarf made? A: It is made in France, consistent with Hermès’s long‑standing silk scarf production heritage.
