Perfect for spring weddings, garden parties or a city brunch, this Hermès Carré 70 in pink silk adds a refined pop of colour. Knot it at the neck, tie it to a handbag or wear as a chic headscarf to elevate smart-casual and occasion outfits with its Zingaro Tokyo equestrian motif.
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 and fabric of this Hermès Carré 70?
A: The Carré 70 is approximately 70 x 70 cm and crafted from 100% silk with hand‑rolled edges. As each scarf is finished by hand, slight size variations are normal. This piece is made in France.
Q: What does the ‘Zingaro Tokyo’ motif refer to?
A: It pays homage to Zingaro, the world‑renowned equestrian theatre founded by Bartabas. Hermès released ‘Zingaro Tokyo’ editions in the mid‑2000s celebrating the troupe’s Tokyo performances; this scarf features the Tokyo 2009 marking and an equestrian‑themed artwork.
Q: How should I care for and clean the silk?
A: Hermès advises avoiding washing and instead using a trusted professional dry cleaner, taking special care with the hand‑rolled edges. Printed silk can be damaged by rain and contact with water, perfume, or other chemicals, so keep the scarf dry and let any moisture evaporate naturally.
Q: Can I hand‑wash a Hermès silk scarf at home?
A: We follow Hermès’ recommendation to dry clean only. Some collectors do gently hand‑wash at their own risk, but colours can run and the texture may change—particularly with saturated or vintage colours—so professional care is the safest route.
Q: How should I store it between wears?
A: Store it flat or loosely folded in a breathable dust bag or box, away from direct sunlight, heat, and humidity. Avoid placing weight on the rolled hems and keep perfumes or hair sprays away from the fabric.
Q: How can I style a Carré 70?
A: The 70 is wonderfully versatile—try the classic bias fold around the neck, a neat bandana knot, a headband or ponytail wrap, or tie it to a bag handle or wrist. Its slightly smaller size makes it easy for everyday wear without bulk.
Q: Is the Carré 70 unisex?
A: Yes. Hermès squares are designed to be styled freely by anyone—there are no rules. The Carré 70 works equally well as a neckerchief, pocket square alternative, bandana, or hair accessory.
Q: How do I spot key signs of authenticity on Hermès scarves?
A: Look for finely hand‑rolled hems that roll toward the front (the more vibrant side) with matching thread, crisp printing, rich silk twill, and design details such as the Hermès Paris marking and, often, the artist’s signature. A Retro Tale verifies authenticity through multi‑point checks before listing.
Q: Can Hermès repair or refresh a scarf?
A: Hermès offers after‑sales services and can advise on care; for cleaning, they recommend a specialist dry cleaner. For issues like a loosened hem, consult an Hermès boutique or an experienced luxury textile specialist.
Q: What is included with this item?
A: This listing is sold without accessories (no box, ribbon, or care booklet). Everything included is stated under Accessories; if it isn’t listed there, it is not included.
