Rare 1960s Vintage Hermès Plaisirs du Froid Scarf in Original Box

A true collector's dream, this exquisite vintage Hermès scarf from the iconic Plaisirs du Froid collection captures the enchanting spirit of winter merriment. Designed by the celebrated artist Loïc Dubigeon, a renowned illustrator and graphic designer who created many of Hermès' beloved scarf designs from the 1960s through the 1980s. His playful and whimsical artistic style beautifully captured the themes and scenes depicted on the silk canvases. The Plaisirs du Froid design, first issued by Hermès in 1967, features delightful winter scenes with figures ice skating, sledding, building snowmen, and warming themselves by fires. Dubigeon's clever composition and use of colour brought these winter pleasures to life in his signature stylized illustrations. This wonderful designer vintage scarf boasts an exquisite hand-feel and lightweight drape, making it an absolute pleasure to wear. The deep, rich colors remain remarkably vivid, a testament to Hermès' unparalleled quality and commitment to craftsmanship that has made their scarves coveted collectibles worldwide. This vintage treasure is accompanied by its original iconic orange Hermès box, bearing the emblematic design and adding an extra touch of authenticity and prestige. The box itself is a highly sought-after item among collectors, further enhancing the allure of this remarkable piece. Whether draped elegantly over the shoulders, tied as a chic neckerchief, or artfully knotted as a belt or headband, this Plaisirs du Froid scarf promises to elevate any ensemble with its timeless Parisian charm and unparalleled artistry. A true investment piece, it represents the pinnacle of Hermès' heritage, capturing the essence of winter's enchanting delights in luxurious silk. This lustrous silk twill scarf measures approx 35" x 35" (90cm x 90cm), offering a generous size perfect for versatile styling. In very good vintage condition, there are no tears, holes or stains.

At My Vintage, we take time to carefully measure each item of vintage clothing so that you have the best chance of ensuring a good fit whenever you buy from us. We measure the clothing laid flat as the diagrams show below and for bust, chest, waist and hips we double the measurement. For example, if the waist measures 17" across when laid flat then this would equate to a 34" waist (17 x 2 = 34)

We use the measurements we collate to assign each item of vintage clothing with an approximate modern-day size. For example, a dress with a 34" bust, 28" waist and 34" hips would normally equate to a current UK size 10. The labels on vintage clothing can vary massively depending on country of origin and date of manufacture. Clothing sizes have changed over the years and from decade to decade we see alternative types of sizing as well as variations on the way measurements equate to dress sizes.

We always recommend that you double-check the measurements of the vintage clothing item you are interested in, ideally by measuring an item of clothing you already own and that fits well, and comparing these measurements. There can be variations due to the desired fit, shape and fabric of an item but our size guidelines are normally very accurate and take the stress out of buying vintage online.

When buying vintage online, it is important to have as much accurate information about the item(s) as possible. As well as multiple photographs and detailed descriptions we also provide information about each item's condition. To make this even easier to follow, we have created this simple Condition Guide that provides an easy reference as you shop with My Vintage...

There are so many great reasons to buy vintage clothing. Firstly the unique nature of each item means that you are always buying something super special and in most cases one-of-a-kind. Not to mention, of course, the huge benefits for the environment. Buying vintage clothing as opposed to always buying new, is such a brilliant and sustainable way to shop for fashion. The more we share, swap and recycle our clothing, the more we help to reduce our carbon footprint.

Vintage clothing is also so well made, with many of the fabrics being of incredible quality and the craftsmanship second to none. It really is so often true when they say 'they don't make them like they used to'.
