Materials

Depending on the materials, expertise and techniques used, some stoles appear bulkier and thicker than the other despite they have quite similar sizes. Hermes generally uses cashmere, silk or combination of both in different proportion to make stoles. Some involve the use of leather too, see below stole lined with calfskin leather trim and a tone-on-tone leather logo (green arrows).

Men’s Collection

Hermes stoles and mufflers are universal despite the House has categorized them into women’s and men’s collections. A lady who prefers a less feminine design can go for stoles from the men’s collection; whereas a gentleman can choose to own a design from the women’s collection if it suits him well. See these.

Care Instruction

Hermes always recommends to preserve the beauty of muffler by storing it flat and untied, avoid contact with rain, water and other chemicals such as cosmetics and perfume. Besides, entrusting the muffler to a professional dry cleaner is recommended as well.
