Hermes Catwalk Fashion Show ss2010

Jean Paul Gaultier took us to the tennis club, where he presented more than fifty hot new Hermès looks. The catwalk had white lines on it and the girls all wore headbands in colors matching their outfits. In some of the clothes (short white, beige or lavender skirts, shorts, polo’s and cardigans) the girls could actually play a good game of tennis. The rest of the outfits (long halterdresses, trouser suits and chiffon tops) were perfect for chilling along the sideline. Though the clothes were very diverse Gaultier showed a cohesive collection of classic/sporty pieces. He used classic color-combinations of red, white and navy-blue. Great leather pieces came in beautiful chestnut brown. The models wore big bangles (colored or silver) and fingerless gloves. They carried small clutches and the famous Birkin bags. One of them even had a tennis-touch to it with a long band, a special part to put the tennisballs in. (Tess van Daelen)
