As I was just listing another fabulous scarf by Madame Laurence Bourthoumieux (or Thioune), I realized that she deserves a special recognition here. Toutsy for short, has created some truly remarkable scarves for the Maison Hermes. A gifted artist, her first creation I believe to be Tropiques, which was first issued in 1988.
Tropiques was designed by Laurence Toutsy Bourthoumieux and first issued in 1988 – SOLD
The iconic Giverny was issued the following year, 1989.
