Shopping For A Hermes Vintage Scarf

By Rachael Gutierrez


Hermes is a brand known all over the world because of their gorgeous line of accessories. Fashion mavens everywhere always eagerly await their newest items with bated breath. These same fashionable fans area always on the lookout for the famous Hermes vintage scarf, because these are gorgeous items that have stood the test of time. Before you bring out your credit card to purchase though, here is what to look for.

The first thing to look for is what material the scarf is made out of. Many people assume that Hermes only uses high-end materials like silk in the manufacturing process, but this is actually not true. Though many scarves are made from silk or some kind of silk blend like silk twill, a few are made from more durable materials to last longer. Jersey, chiffon, and even cashmere are also popular choices for these vintage pieces.

The one drawback of vintage items is that sometimes unscrupulous sellers will try to trick someone into buying something that isn't the real deal. Since Hermes is mostly subtle about their logo appearing on their items, you may have to search for the brand name and logo on the scarf. Sometimes it is very easy to spot, while other times it may take a little more time. Either way, if you aren't sure about the item's authenticity, decline to purchase it.

The next thing to look for is quality. Hermes prides itself on producing only high-quality items that are made to last and be a good investment. If the item you are thinking of purchasing is made from shoddy materials or has a lot of imperfections, chances are good that you are holding a fake. Only purchase items that are of high quality to ensure you aren't getting bamboozled.

There is a difference between authentic vintage scarves and ones that are 'vintage style' scarves. Something that is vintage style was actually made just recently, and just looks like it was made decades ago. These are often replications of the originals, so keep that in mind when you are deciding whether to buy or not.

Price is the next big consideration when deciding whether or not to plunk down your hard-earned cash on one of these gorgeous items. Sure, they are more expensive than a scarf you might buy at your local mass merchandiser, but they are still a good investment. They are made to last for years with proper care, and they will likely have good resell value later on should you decide to part with it.

Even though a scarf is an accessory, that doesn't mean that you can't have an accessory for it. Hermes has gorgeous scarf rings available in variety of designs and materials to help you style your scarf. You don't need a ring to style your scarf, but it makes a really beautiful addition to your collection.

As with any purchase, always be sure that your Hermes vintage scarf is the real deal. It takes just a few minutes to ensure that you have an authentic piece. This is a great investment and will turn any wardrobe from basic to fabulous in no time flat.
