Jean Paul Gaultier’s collection at Hermès, was a case of Love All. This time, Tennis was his theme, and he delivered like a pro to give a topspin to Hermès’ timeless classics. In a Spring when black-and-white graphics, little kilts, and easy sportswear are all newly desirable, Gaultier served up several variations on tennis skirts, longline cardigans, dressing gowns, and club T-shirts.
T-shirts grown into long, with fluid jersey evening columns and a creamy lizard Birkin even came with a matching ball bag attached. It’s a rare skill to be able to pull off a trend without being horribly disposable thing, “trendy.”
If a woman goes to Hermès, it’s with an objective and intention of buying something that will stay in her wardrobe for years. And without any fault, this collection delivered on exactly that point, covering haute necessities from beautiful daywear to chic-casual looks for early evening. And hot ‘n’ simple navy or white ankle-skimming dresses cut to knock the competition dead at any number of indoor or outdoor summer events.

And, not to forget, the show also established Hermès’ supremacy in discreet jewelry. Fine strands of silver-link chains, worn as pendants and belts, were a styling choice so compelling they might even shift the current aesthetic away from gold.
Clever, and perfectly timed, this collection reaffirmed the position of leather and accessories house of rue Saint-Honoré in Parisian top league, exactly where it belongs.
