So, first off, Goyard. We all know ’em, right? That kinda-secret, ridiculously expensive brand that whispers “old money” even louder than like, a string of pearls on a yacht. Their bags are famous (and expensive!), but their scarves? They’re kinda like the underdog of the Goyard world.
I mean, you see those iconic chevron patterns EVERYWHERE. It’s like, a subtle flex. A “I know what’s up” kinda vibe. And yeah, the silk. It’s gotta be nice, right? I mean, for the price you’re paying, you’d EXPECT it to feel like, clouds hugging your neck. I’ve never actually touched one, to be honest. *Maybe* someday I will, once I win the lottery, LOL.
But back to the scarves. Apparently, they use this old-school “frame-printing technique” which honestly, sounds super fancy and probably contributes to the price tag. “Scarf N°1” reinterprets the chevron, they say, playing with the size and alternating between something. (I’m paraphrasing here from the descriptions, okay?). I’m not really sure *what* they are alternating between.
And then there’s the whole “second-hand” thing. Vestiaire Collective is full of used Goyard scarves. Which, like, makes sense? I mean, people buy stuff, realize they don’t wear it, and then try to recoup some cash. But buying a *used* Goyard scarf? It’s a little funny to me. Like, you’re still paying a pretty penny for something that someone else wore. But hey, whatever floats your boat, right?
Grailed also has them, apparently. I always forget about Grailed, lol. And then there’s the whole price difference between the US and Paris. Ugh, don’t even get me started on that. Everything’s cheaper in Paris, isn’t it? Makes you wanna hop on a plane just to buy a scarf. (Or maybe, you know, a whole Goyard bag).
