HERMÈS
Europe Silk Vest
Handsome silk vest featuring the iconic Europe print by Joachim Metz for Hermès in a regal neutral palette. Classic waistcoat is formed from the signature silk scarf, reconstructed as a vest. Back of vest features the center of the scarf, an angelic figure with a halo of the stars of Europe surrounded by cherubs. The poetic quote running through the scarf has been pieced together to form a symmetrical pattern of baroque ribbons and flourishes running throughout the piece. Fully lined with silk covered buttons, a welt pocket, and back tie for the perfect fit. Includes extra button. We would wear with a high waisted tweed trouser, block heeled brogue, and collared silk blouse for a commanding look. Cream, grey, black, goldenrod, dark gold.
Original scarf quote:
“Que l’harmonie et l’amour soient dans les esprits et dans les coeurs des hommes pour réussir ce monde qui nous accueille. N’abusons pas de cette confiance mise en nous. Sachons la mériter par nos étoiles unies. ”
