Hermès SS27 by Nadège Vanhée at the Garde Républicaine: the collection built around air, leather strips on silk mesh, zips that change a skirt's length, a palette from cream to sunflower yellow and orange, a hot tent

The show ran in a white space inside the Garde Républicaine on Saturday 3 October, on an afternoon when the Pride march closed roads and held up arrivals. Sofia Vergara sat in the front row. Flat leather boots with moccasin-style stitching, strappy flat sandals and small bucket bags with open latticework finished the looks, and the leather was kept mostly to accessories and accents.
