Ideal for a daytime wedding or afternoon tea, this vintage Hermès Carré 90 in white silk with the red La Rosée print adds a polished splash of colour when knotted at the neck or draped over the shoulders.
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 are the measurements of an Hermès Carré 90? A: The classic Carré measures approximately 90 × 90 cm. It’s a versatile square that can be styled around the neck, as a headscarf, a belt, or tied to a bag handle.
Q: Who designed the La Rosée motif and when was it issued? A: La Rosée was created by the artist Anne Gavarni and was first issued in 1960, with later reissues in selected seasons. This vintage piece features white silk with a red La Rosée print and hand-rolled red edges.
Q: What is the fabric and finish of Hermès Carré 90 scarves? A: They are crafted in silk twill (100% silk) with hand-rolled, hand-stitched edges. The rolled hems are a signature of Hermès craftsmanship.
Q: How can I style a 90 scarf day to day? A: Popular options include a classic neckerchief, the triangle “cowboy” knot, a bias fold for a slimmer band, a headscarf, a waist belt, or a bag handle wrap. A scarf ring can add more ways to secure and finish the look.
Q: How should I care for and clean a vintage Hermès silk scarf? A: Follow the care label and use a trusted specialist dry cleaner. Keep the scarf away from rain, perfume and moisture, and store it loosely folded in its box or flat in a drawer, out of direct sunlight.
Q: Can the colours transfer or run if the scarf gets wet? A: Colour migration is possible on silk, particularly on older pieces, so avoid contact with water and humidity. If the scarf gets damp, allow it to air dry flat away from heat.
Q: How do I remove creases without flattening the rolled hems? A: Steam lightly from a short distance, or use a cool iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth. Work from the centre out and avoid pressing directly on the rolled edges so they remain plump and rounded.
Q: How do you authenticate this scarf? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully authenticated. Hallmarks of genuine Hermès scarves include hand-rolled hems rolled towards the front with colour-matched thread, crisp and detailed printing, and correct artist and brand markings. We are happy to provide additional photos or details on request.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece comes with a box, as listed in the Accessories section. If an accessory (such as a dust bag or receipt) isn’t listed there, it is not included.
Q: Is the Carré 90 unisex? A: Yes. The 90 cm format is timeless and suits all genders; style it to suit your wardrobe and taste.
