Hermès International has revealed a glimpse of its collaboration with creative legend Rei Kawakubo on limited-edition silk carré scarves.

Hermes invited 18-year-old American photographer Olivia Bee to shoot a feature for the Fall/Winter 2012 issue of their Le Monde d’Hermes magazine.

The photoshoot, which stars a variety of the brand’s iconic scarves, borrows from the world of fantasy and fairy tales.

Following previous team-ups with the likes of French conceptual artist Daniel Buren, Hermès has announced its latest limited edition scarf collaboration will be with Japanese photographer Hiroshi Sugimoto.

The partnership is in honor of the third edition of the luxury label’s Hermès Editeur project, which intertwines the world of fine arts and crafts with the realm of textiles.

Sugimoto’s limited edition silk scarves have been inspired by his “Colors of Shadow” project, and will be presented at the Art Basel contemporary art fair this June.

French luggage maker Goyard have released a selection of scarves in their first foray outside of luggage and travel accessories.

The scarves are made of fine silk and are hand printed with an artisitc interpretation on Goyard’s signature “Y” chevron pattern.

There are 4 scarves in blue, orange, white, and pink colorways that match pieces from the Goyard luggage line.

For a few seasons Hermes had been playing with fairy-tale plots and characters while creating ad campaigns.

And for their Fall 2010 ad campaign, Hermès have decided to teach us some new ways to wear — or rather, to use — our scarves.

With the help of Constance Jablonski and Jonas Mason, we now know we can use scarves and ties as Zorro-esque capes, masks, and as escape/entrance methods.
