Hugo Grygkar for Hermès

1959

The Hermès "Les Insectes" scarf, designed by Madame La Torre, features a stunning array of realistically rendered insects, showcasing the beauty of even the smallest creatures. It was first released in 1958 and reissued in 1998 and 2005. The design is inspired by the detailed etchings found in Diderot and d'Alembert's encyclopedia, specifically the chapter on "l'art d'écrire". The scarf is known for its vibrant colors and intricate details, making it a favorite among Hermès scarf enthusiasts.

The scarf's design draws inspiration from the intricate engravings in Diderot and d'Alembert's encyclopedia, which was a vast compilation of knowledge from the Enlightenment era.
