Q: What are the usual dimensions of a Twilly? A: Classic Hermès Twillies are commonly around 5 cm wide and 85–86 cm long, though minor variation can occur due to production differences. Please check the Measurements section of this listing for the precise size of this item.
Q: How can I wear or use a Twilly? A: Style it as a neck tie, hair ribbon/headband, bracelet, hat band, or a slim accent through belt loops (on narrow loops). It’s also popular for wrapping bag handles (e.g., Birkin/Kelly) to add colour and help protect from oils and wear.
Q: How many Twillies do I need to wrap my bag handles? A: Typically, one Twilly per handle. For bags with two handles, most customers use two Twillies (one for each). Coverage depends on handle thickness and length—please compare our listed measurements to your bag.
Q: Any tips for wrapping a handle so it doesn’t slip? A: Start with a small knot at the base, wrap snugly with slight overlap, and finish with a discreet knot or tuck at the end. Avoid adhesives or pins. Rewrap occasionally to keep it neat and evenly tensioned.
Q: How should I care for and clean a silk Twilly? A: Professional dry cleaning is recommended. If you choose to hand‑wash at home, use cold water and a silk‑specific detergent, avoid soaking, do not wring, and dry flat away from sunlight. Press on the reverse with a cool iron and a pressing cloth. Keep silk away from moisture, perfumes, oils and rough surfaces.
Q: Will the colours bleed or fade? A: Printed silk can be sensitive to water and friction. Avoid getting it wet and be cautious of rubbing against dark denim or richly dyed garments that may transfer colour. Store away from direct sunlight and heat to minimise fading.
Q: What is the typical fabric and edge finish on a Twilly? A: Twillies are usually made from silk twill with finely stitched (machine‑sewn) edges. Larger Hermès carrés often feature hand‑rolled hems, whereas Twillies generally do not—please see our close‑up photos for this piece’s finish.
Q: Does a Hermès Twilly have a serial number or date code, and how is authenticity verified? A: Twillies do not have serial numbers or date codes. Authentic pieces typically feature an Hermès signature within the print and a care/composition label indicating the brand and country of origin. A Retro Tale authenticates every item through rigorous multi‑point checks beyond labels alone.
Q: Where is it made and does it come with the original box or ribbon? A: Hermès Twillies are commonly made in France; the care label or print indicates the country of origin. Inclusions vary for vintage/pre‑owned items—please refer to the Accessories section and photos to see exactly what is included with this listing.
Q: Is this related to “Twilly d’Hermès” perfume? A: No—the Twilly here is a silk accessory. “Twilly d’Hermès” is a fragrance line. The names are similar, but the scarf and the perfume are separate products.
