Fashion: The fashion solution for extraordinary times

Trust Herms to set the right precedent and clear the ceiling for post-Covid-19 wardrobes! Stack free-weight style with style freedom and you’ve rightly concluded the collection of artistic director Vronique Nichanians Spring 2022 men’s label that was showcased recently.

Reflecting unbridled exuberance, it is rooted in empirically chic wardrobes that touch the sweet spot between technical innovation and craft heritage.

The collection is an expression of grace, fluidity, and the changing nature of our lives. It also has a touch of sailing spirit, in response to our need to escape. It aims to encourage people to get out and about – a desire we all have in common, he said.

Because unexpected turns of events often spark creative juices, designers are reinventing their approach to presentation design and formats.

Crafted with meticulous execution in collaboration with theater director Cyril Teste (who also designed the set) for the third time now, the enlarged show gets off to a lively start with models launching multi-sensory attacks on multiple screens of varying sizes, thus offering panoramic viewer of detail and movement.

What makes this presentation unique is the fact that each model is filmed in a unique individualistic style. Drawing on the architecture of the Mobilier National building, where the Herms show is located, there is an attempt to echo the work of French architect Auguste Perrets through a precise approach to symmetry, geometry and perspective.

Over the years, the designer has refined and redefined the French savoir faire through his strong menswear style. This season, he extrapolated forms in trompe-lil: overshirts, double jacket-cardigans, coats and parkas in two materials.

Reversible parkas and straight blouses have a pleasant conversation with straight coats and hooded zip sweatshirts. The highlight is a shirt with sailboat stitch and Bermuda shorts with a belt in goatskin metis.

A series of round neck pullovers, a T-shirt with a Tunisian collar and a cashmere shirt with a floral puzzle print convey a sense of totality, with plenty of mix and match options. Separate is manifested in neutral colors such as flax, algae, brown balanced by cheerful yellows and delicious lettuce greens. A palladium pendant and an enameled and double-skinned Swift calfskin bracelet braided together with a sash on the straps and a button-down fastening loosely tied around the waist lend gravitas to any ensemble. It’s hard not to stare at the Herms H 08 watch, high top sneakers in canvas and suede goatskin ankle boots, all of which add a touch of chic.

Celebrating the unmitigated multi-storey houses for detail, precision and precision, the line-up is a shining metaphor for Nichanians explaining the prowess of aesthetic and instinctive design, where he plays with elegance and fluidity and thus offers fashion solutions. for these extraordinary times. Overall, a free and languid approach to sewing and lining.
