They do sell women's hankies but they aren't nearly as nice as the onces we all remember. They are hard, very stiff, even if you wash them a couple times. I think it's inferior quality fabric and some of it is heavy ink printing. Love my old ones I've gotten at yard sales and from my mother. Always keep one in my purse for tears and grandson.
