Fashion Icons: The perfect collection to (re)discover the work of the greatest fashion houses.
Founded in the 19th century as a saddlery workshop, Hermès quickly made a name for itself among European nobility through its excellent craftsmanship and attention to detail. Over the decades and through its innovations, the family empire grew, consolidating an image that remains distinct in the world of Parisian fashion: one of extreme refinement but a rejection of luxury for its ostentatiousness. Its reign soon expanded to include perfumery, watchmaking, tableware, and ready-to-wear fashion.
Refusing to let any flaw leave its workshops or to follow trends, Hermès has never indulged in opulence. Its name is forever linked to its famous silk scarf, reinvented several times a year, and the Birkin bag, some models of which have sold for hundreds of thousands of euros at auction.
In this concise, precise, and richly illustrated book, discover the most significant and iconic creations of the house, perfect embodiments of French craftsmanship.
