The Hermès Men's Spring/Summer 2022 collection speaks of a sense of lightness, relaxation, and freedom. It is a response to our need for broader perspectives, to reinvent a wardrobe where different fabrics intertwine, and where innovation finds inspiration in the heritage of craftsmanship.
Depth and fantasy: a duality of spirit that shakes appearances. Paper becomes fabric; the brand's patented toilbright material and a cotton lining come together; leather is enlivened by explosions of color and graphic stitching. Trompe-l'œil modules cover overshirts, double jacket-cardigan, bi-material coats, and parkas. This hybrid approach inaugurates a renewed elegance synonymous with energetic and flexible forms: the apparently casual style fades into a structured elegance for the evening.
A harmonious play of contrasts accentuates the colors, which range from celadon-green, seaweed shades, chocolate, and charcoal tones blend with the softness of faded pink, stone gray, and raw silk. A bright and soft sweater, a daisy motif, and wide Bermuda shorts embody this much sought-after relaxation. Suffused with optimism and energy, this collection encourages us to take back the life that has been denied us.
