The debut of Christopher Lemaire at Hermes was crowned with ultimate success. After a seven year period as Creative Director with Jean Paul Gaultier, it is extremely difficult to expect that another designer could understand and respect the distinctiveness of such a luxury brand.
Christophe Lemaire presented a collection based on soft leather, (a trademark of the fashion house) in a reversible cashmere coat and oversized dresses and trousers. Large accessories and bags, warm colors, (orange, warm yellow turquoise and shades of beige) and leather riding hats combined with highlights and geometric prints giving the impression of a new and fascinating beginning for the fashion house.
