HERMES by Martin Margiela

Hermès by Martin Margiela. From 1997 to 2003, Martin Margiela served as artistic director of women's ready-to-wear. Its designs are characterized by a minimal, intellectual approach that could be called “a reinterpretation of Hermès.” While upholding the maison's tradition of fine materials and exceptional craftsmanship, they strip away ornament in pursuit of a quiet, practical elegance. Built around relaxed silhouettes, layered styling and neutral colors, the collections embody “understated, essential beauty.”
