When Carly Simon sang the words for the song in the film 'The Spy Who Loved Me' she was referring, I gather, to the sexual expertise of Roger Moore as James Bond. When it comes to silk, Hermès does a similar job with their screen printed pocket squares. Their visual pleasure is orgiastic on the eyeballs. Quite often I would merely like to pull one out of my breast pocket and wave it amongst the crowd like a Willy Wonka Golden Ticket. 'Yes, yes, I have it here, look, come see!' If you were ever to want your own they are worth every penny. I think I paid $230.00 AUD a piece for mine, but I never once consider myself as having over-paid. The only, tiny, eenny weeny little complaint I might have is that the inks do not bleed through far enough to the other side. But when you have this many coloured inks or dyes in a screen print, you ought to be satisfied that they even get one side right. Bravo Hermès! Buy them here
