Hermès’ Fall/Winter 2025 Menswear Collection: A Timeless Fusion of Elegance and Modernity

For the Fall/Winter 2025 season, Hermès invites us into a world where luxury and functionality seamlessly intertwine, with ‘Inhabiting Time’ taking center stage.

Presented at the prestigious Palais d'Iéna in Paris on January 25, 2025, the collection embraces the intersection of fashion and architecture, crafting a silhouette that is both dynamic and refined. The vision? A collection of garments designed to be worn like a home—welcoming, enveloping, and fiercely protective against the chill of winter.

A Journey Through the Fabric of Time

Hermès has long been synonymous with high craftsmanship, and this season, the brand continues to evolve. The ‘Inhabiting Time’ collection plays with contrasts—short, sharply tailored coats draped over narrow and wide trousers, blending urban cool with understated elegance. Each piece reflects an architecture of style, with clear, structured lines and dramatic contrasts between visible and hidden details. Pockets shift as the garments stretch, blankets transform into removable linings, and the boundary between what’s seen and unseen becomes blurred. It’s a wardrobe that speaks to both function and style—your life carried with you, not just a look.

The palette is rich and grounded, mixing charcoal greys, prunoir, and chrome greens with lighter accents of blood orange and vanilla, bringing warmth to an otherwise muted selection. Warm wool alpaca, cashmere flannel, and mohair teddy bring textures that are both sumptuous and comforting. Hermès evokes a luxurious balance between the hard lines of tailoring and the softness of tactile fabrics, creating a look that is at once structured and fluid.

The Craftsmanship: An Artful Balance of Tradition and Innovation

The genius of this collection lies in its subtleties. The details are the true heroes of the show: Étrivière leather facings, oblong horn buttons, and the intricate glove-making overstitches that elevate each piece to a work of art. These refined touches are seen on overshirts in deerskin, gilets in calfskin, and wool blends, all reimagined with a modern twist. It’s clear that Hermès continues to redefine what it means to be elegant in a world that craves both comfort and style.

Not just about the fabric, Hermès plays with form too—coats and jackets rise and fall, collars stand tall, and hems are left untamed. The collection merges old-world craftsmanship with future-forward thinking, offering a fresh approach to classic staples. Think duffle coats with removable hoods and overshirts that transition from day to night seamlessly.

Beyond Clothing: Accessories That Complete the Look

As always, Hermès excels in its accessories. This season, the brand’s Haut à Courroies bags, made from Evercalf calfskin, stand out with their clean lines and luxurious feel. The Garden Party Voyage bags in printed H canvas and Négonda calfskin offer an effortlessly chic way to carry your essentials. Balaclavas and gloves in soft cashmere complement the collection, rounding out a look that is as functional as it is elegant.

The jewelry collection features ear cuffs in rose gold and palladium-finish metal, as well as necklaces and bracelets that mix horn with palladium, offering understated elegance in every detail. The statement accessories make a bold yet refined impact, much like the collection itself.

Hermès’ Evolution: A New Chapter in Menswear

Under the creative direction of Nadège Vanhee-Cybulski, Hermès continues to push the boundaries of what luxury menswear can represent. The Fall/Winter 2025 collection is not just about fashion—it’s about the way we live within our clothes. The garments offer more than just protection from the cold; they become a second skin, a space of comfort, style, and structure that embodies the best of Hermès: timeless, elegant, and utterly unique.
