Hey, welcome to the community! It’s great to have you here. When it comes to investing in Hermes scarves, the choice between vintage and new designs can be exciting. Vintage pieces often have a timeless charm and unique stories behind them, while newer designs offer fresh perspectives and potentially rising value. Personally, I love the hunt for rare vintage finds, but there’s something special about being one of the first to showcase a new release:)

Personally, I prefer investing in vintage Hermes scarves. Each one tells a story and has its own character.

Buy what you love! When I first started collecting, my choices were quite random. I began to learn that the particular colorway makes a huge difference in my enjoyment of a design. I would say look for what you love, in a CW that makes you happy. I have scarves of every age in my collection, and I love them all.

I adore vintage all the way, as you can explore unique designs and endless options. Also, when starting out this is a budget friendly option to first at all e.g. try out different formats, colors and styles.

However, please only shop with reputable resellers and really investigate if all the details of an authentic Hermès scarf are given. :orange_heart:

Lots of love and happy collecting!
