Hermes A few days ago, the launch of the 2022 winter menswear collection was officially held. Optimistic and light, the collection expresses a heartfelt desire for conflict and sophistication, where opposing materials and overlapping elements are intertwined. These fusion designs accompany every moment of life filled with joy and tenderness, joy and elegance. Light and shadow flow on the collection, and modern styles are shown in turn: golden brown luster, velvet touch, corrugated lambskin, technical fabric, herringbone pattern… In addition, the application of color is also a big part of the collection. What to watch: gray-black, brown, pine green, black, also frost blue, flower pink, bright orange, lettuce green. They are saturated and collide with each other, capturing the momentary energy and the flow of time in the Perret collection of the French National Furniture Administration.
Therefore, Véronique Nichanian and Hermès’ close partner, director Cyril Teste, focused on the tapestries preserved in this historic and creative space. How to inject vitality into ancient tapestries and create a fashion feast? The answer is to place them on a screen wall and gradually change, so that they change rhythmically with the viewer’s line of sight, and the model walks slowly through it. They are integrated into the set, from which the new collection unfolds, revealing both characters and clothing. The 2022 Winter Collection emerges from the tapestry’s self-contained botanical pattern graduating into a unique patina.
