Hermès Men’s Winter 2025 Collection
Inhabiting Time
To inhabit time.
To enter a garment as you would a house, to dress with the feeling of being welcomed.
Right there, inside a wide travel coat or generously sized jackets inspired by racing silks—designed to brave the bite of winter. The line is dynamic, rounded but not lost. Urbane and graphic, stretched by coats, short or long, worn over trousers, narrow and wide.
The allure shapes the silhouette through a sharp, architected vision, giving each garment its own presence. It is a play between front and back, inside and out, visible and invisible:
- A blanket becomes a removable lining.
- Pockets shift as they stretch.
It’s your life you carry, and not another.
From charcoal grey to prunoir, chrome green to bronze, a palette of muted tones warms at the touch of suspended notes—blood orange or vanilla in comforting strokes of light. The line takes shape in gesture, inspiring new ways of wearing, a disciplined informality.
Short volumes, soft shoulders, trousers with sharp, vigorous lines. An abecedary of classics, revisited by the eye and the hand—crafted with exacting intuition and secret attentions. The anatomy of an allure both new and eternal.
Snowy alpaca and cashmere flannel, velvet evenings, sheepskin, shaded bouclé, and teddy mohair—forming a confident, enveloping wardrobe. Between hoods, balaclavas, and blanket-finished parkas, the heart gently sways.
- A double-fronted jacket is raised.
- A collar is straightened up.
- Technique catches the moment—fixing it without freezing it.
Étrivière leather facings, oblong horn buttons, glove-making overstitches, double-striped shirts—details that distill the silhouette. The pattern crisscrosses the knit, evoking the supplest marquetry.
In the crackle of a cotton and silk shirt, the aura of a piqué ciré duffle coat, shadow comes to light. The sketch of a new equestrian geometry, all promises and surprises.
Style surrenders nothing to function.
