History of Hermes

<Thierry Hermès>

He is the founder of ‘Hermes’.

For now, Hermes is one of the famous brand with Chanel and Louisvuitton.

When Thierry Hermès made Hermes, it was not brand of ‘Fashion’. It was a brand of selling harness things. And when he made that stuffs, he always made with good leathers and made with strong.

 But right after the WW2, Family of Hermes worried that when the cars were coming out, people were not finding the harness things, only few. So that the family decided to remain their jobs to make for people who are rich, So it was the beginning of Hermes and how did they change their major job to fashion. Emile Hermes is a grandson of Thierry, and actually he made Hermes to more major in Fashion.

Here is the store of Hermes in Paris. When he built store in Paris, it was 1880.

That store located in Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. Still here is exist with one of the symbol of Paris.

<Items of Hermes>

Many women want Item has with practicality and also with look cool. Hermes have both of them so I think it is the reason why that women were getting crazy about Hermes. Obviously Hermes is so expensive and some bag’s reservation is full until 3-4 years, which mean that one women try to get that model, she need to wait 3~4 years. Like this, Hermes is so popular and all the women love these bag. So let’s see that bag what makes women crazy.

 This is a Birkin bag. It was made for Birkin. And here is the story about.

It was so simple but has charisma and not only hard, looks like soft also.

This Birkin bag made only about 100 in 1 year, surely by hand made.
