Perfect for race day, gallery openings or a polished city brunch, this vintage Hermès Carré 70 in orange, cream and brown silk adds a refined flourish to any look. Knot it at the neck, in the hair or on a bag; the 'Zingaro Tokyo' equestrian motif and hand‑rolled edges bring timeless elegance from daytime meetings to evening cocktails.
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 dimensions of the Carré 70? A: It measures approximately 70 × 70 cm (about 27.6 × 27.6 in). This size works beautifully as a neckerchief, hair scarf, wrist wrap, or tied onto a bag handle. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: What is the Zingaro Tokyo motif? A: Zingaro Tokyo is an equestrian-themed Hermès design released in the mid‑2000s and seen in various colourways and reissues. It features dynamic horse imagery and graphic borders; this piece comes in orange, cream and brown. Exact issue year for this item is not specified here.
Q: What is the fabric and finish? A: Hermès silk carrés are crafted from 100% silk twill with hand‑rolled, hand‑stitched edges. On authentic pieces the hem is rolled towards the front (the print side), a hallmark of Hermès craftsmanship.
Q: How does a Carré 70 wear compared with a Carré 90? A: The 70 is a touch smaller and often a little lighter/softer than a classic 90, making it perfect for neat neck knots, bandana folds, headbands, or twined around a bag handle. The 90 offers more coverage for draping and top styles—choose based on how you plan to wear it.
Q: Is this scarf unisex? A: Yes. Hermès carrés are designed to be styled freely by anyone. The 70 format suits a wide variety of looks, from clean neck ties to headwear and bag accents.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Hermès silk scarf? A: The safest option is professional dry cleaning with a specialist experienced in fine silk. Day to day, avoid rain and contact with perfume, hairspray or oils; rotate wears; and store it flat or gently rolled away from direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: Can I remove creases at home? A: Light steaming from the reverse side is acceptable—use low heat and a pressing cloth, keeping clear of the hand‑rolled edges. Avoid high heat or heavy pressing, which can flatten hems and alter the silk’s hand.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: This piece is sold as listed under Accessories; it comes with no accessories. If an item like a box or tag is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this scarf? A: Every item is vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of silk twill quality, print execution, hems, stamps and care labels, supported by provenance and comparative research. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further details on request.
