Q: What size is the Carré 140 and how does it wear? A: The Carré 140 measures approximately 140 x 140 cm. It is a generous square that drapes like a shawl, wrap or cape, and can also be styled as a neck scarf, head scarf, or belted top. Its larger size offers more coverage and fluid movement than smaller carré formats.
Q: How does the Carré 140 compare to the classic Carré 90? A: Both are square silk scarves with hand‑rolled edges, but the 140 is significantly larger. The 90 is a timeless neckerchief size, while the 140 functions more like a shawl or wrap and can be styled as a light cover‑up or even a top.

Q: What size is the Carré 140 and how does it wear? A: The Carré 140 measures approximately 140 x 140 cm. It is a generous square that drapes like a shawl, wrap or cape, and can also be styled as a neck scarf, head scarf, or belted top. Its larger size offers more coverage and fluid movement than smaller carré formats.
Q: What does “Ceintures et Liens” mean and what is the design’s background? A: “Ceintures et Liens” translates from French as “Belts and Links”. The motif features intricately interlaced belts and strap elements, reflecting Hermès’ leather‑craft heritage. It was introduced around 2012 and is credited to artist Laurence Bourthoumieux (also known as Toutsy).
Q: Is the Carré 140 unisex? A: Yes. Hermès scarves are designed to be worn by anyone. The 140 format works equally well as a shoulder wrap, neck scarf, head wrap or belt‑style tie, making it a versatile choice for all wardrobes.
Q: How should I clean and care for this silk scarf? A: Hermès recommends professional dry cleaning for scarves and advises avoiding rain and moisture on printed silk. Keep the scarf away from perfumes and cosmetics, and take care around jewellery or rough surfaces that could snag the fabric. For pressing, ask a professional cleaner; avoid flattening the hand‑rolled edges.
Q: Can I hand‑wash a Hermès silk scarf at home? A: Hand‑washing is not recommended by Hermès for printed silk. Many collectors entrust their scarves to a specialist dry cleaner to preserve colour, finish and the rolled hems.
Q: Do Hermès scarves have serial numbers or date codes? A: No. Hermès scarves do not have serial numbers like bags. Authenticity is assessed by details such as the quality of the silk twill, crisp print registration, the “Hermès Paris” marking, the artist’s signature within the design, and finely hand‑rolled and hand‑stitched edges, plus an appropriate care label.
Q: How does the Carré 140 compare to the classic Carré 90? A: Both are square silk scarves with hand‑rolled edges, but the 140 is significantly larger. The 90 is a timeless neckerchief size, while the 140 functions more like a shawl or wrap and can be styled as a light cover‑up or even a top.
Q: What styling ideas work well for a 140? A: Try it draped over the shoulders, folded into a large triangle and wrapped as a shawl, tied sarong‑style over swimwear, or worn as a voluminous neck wrap. Hermès’ knotting guidance offers many variations you can adapt to the larger square.
Q: How should I store the scarf to preserve the rolled edges and colour? A: Store it clean and dry, folded loosely with tissue inside the original box or a breathable pouch. Avoid long‑term hanging, heavy stacking or pressure on the edges, and keep it away from direct sunlight and humidity to prevent fading or distortion.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece comes with the original Hermès box, as listed under Accessories. Everything included is detailed on this page; if you need clarification, just ask our team.
