This is Hermès’ first physical fashion show since the outbreak of the pandemic. Creative director for women’s wear, Nadège Vanhée-Cybulski, chose the Paris Le Bourget Airport terminal as the venue to present the new collection, using this commemorative and open space to express humanity’s aspirations for freedom of flight, conveying an optimistic and hopeful message.
The warm yellow background of the venue was created by artist Flora Moscovici, with 12 large movable spray-painted artworks, slowly gliding along with the models, echoing the design theme of “positive energy of sunlight” this season, while also harmonizing with the color tones of the collection.
The collection features a large number of warm tones such as golden, bright orange, deep brown, and camel, exuding a radiant energy like sunlight; in terms of design, it revolves around the theme of the epidemic era, with creative director Nadège Vanhée-Cybulski reflecting on women’s re-entry into a new era of dressing style, believing that clothing should prioritize practicality and comfort.
The clothing on the sky bridge is not too restrictive, with loose-cut clothes such as drawstring wide-leg pants, silk shirts, and long coats with large pockets. The meticulous stitching outlines crisp silhouettes; leather bra tops and a lot of cropped top combinations are also seen, giving this season’s Hermès a never-before-seen sense of ease.
