"Two of the exclusive designs by Bali Barret, creative director of Hermès Silk, for the collaboration with Liberty
Liberty’s scarf room is about to be taken over by the ultimate purveyor of luxury scarves: Hermès. A pop-up scarf and tie shop, courtesy of the French fashion house, will open for six weeks, from September 7th to October 18th.
More than just a temporary boutique, the space will be presented in the style of an oversized dressing-up box, where visitors will be encouraged to experiment with the different ways of styling the infamous ‘carré’ scarf (which, if manoeuvred correctly, can be utilised as a handbag, halter-neck top, belt… the possibilities are endless) as well as the new ‘cravate-foulard’, a tie-meets-cravate creation for men. A weekly menu of activities is planned, where stylists and photographers will be on hand to record customers' various looks.
In honour of the collaboration, customers will be able to snap-up exclusive limited-edition scarves and ties designed by Hermès Silk’s creative director, Bali Barret, produced using Liberty’s renowned Tana Lawn cottons. Two different-sized scarves will come in six micro-floral prints, each one screen-printed with Hermès’ iconic ‘Ex Libris’ design."
