Apparently, Véronique has left Hermès:

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSS.

I want Pilati or Umit Benan.

 

[Salvatore]

Oh wow !!! That is big. Who could take over the menswear only or is something else at play ? I am taking into consideration their haute couture aspirations.

 

[Olaffo]

WOW, I didn't have this one on my fashion bingo 2025 lol

I honestly thought she will die behind sketching desk at Hermes...anyways, well deserved retirement ! I bet it's gonna be someone internal, doubt they will get big name...

 

[NoInvite]

I don't like the way he phrase the sentence "out" seems like she was fired.
Such disrespect for someone who worked there for 37 years.

At long last...bye Felicia!! Now they have to get rid of Nadège and find someone interesting to revitalize their stale image (if that person exist in nowadays fashion landscape).

Can Nadege’s contract end already?
Kudos to Veronique. She stayed a longtime. She probably worked under the best possible conditions and Kudos to the Dumas for their loyalty.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSS.

I want Pilati or Umit Benan.

They will be better at Armani post L’Oreal acquisition.

Oh wow !!! That is big. Who could take over the menswear only or is something else at play ? I am taking into consideration their haute couture aspirations.

Probably someone from the house. She chose to leave so she probably chose her successor.

Couture aspirations are detached as it’s womenswear.

HEDI SLIMANE.

I loved her work tbh and own a lot of Hermes rtw bc I love the fit. Its really good because it has that neutral look.

 

[Kanzai]

Oh it’s sad to see her go. Call me insane but maestro Helmut Lang (though I desperately want him at Armani 🤭).
Maybe Soshiotsuki is a good option though I don’t think LVMH would let him work at the rival conglomerate. Pls not that Kim Jones…

 

[jeremydante]

Who got next?

 

[IndigoHomme]

HEDI SLIMANE.

I loved her work tbh and own a lot of Hermes rtw bc I love the fit. Its really good because it has that neutral look.

I'm an slimaniac too, but I don't see Hedi in this brand. Although his biggest income comes from leather accessories, I highly doubt he'll be able to do anything with knitwear, wool, and cashmere. Because, honestly, her more grunge-y take on sweaters and cardigans was exhausting.
