I can't deny that these three main products have overshadowed other Hermès products popularity but the truth is, they are Hermès's the top three income generator for years.
Last November, Hermès unveiled its new flagship store at Dosan Park in Seoul, Korea. The new store, which is located within Hermès's own building called Maison Hermès, consists of a 77,450 sqft. floorspace, four floors with copper silkscreen facade and includes an exhibition area called L'Atelier Hermès.

Since the house creative direction were taken over by designers Jean-Paul Galutier for the women's division and Veronique Nichanian for the men's division, Hermès ready-to-wear has becoming a part of fashionistas' wardrobe staples season after season.
Two separate shows were held for both men and women collection. The mens' collection preview was held on January 2007 while the women's collection was unveiled on the 3rd of March 2007 at TBC in front of a group of audience made of selected media representatives, buyers, celebrities and selected Hermès clients.

For this season, outerwear is the focus of the house's ready-to-wear collection. An assortment of coats ranging from the pea coats, swing coats and tail coats were all done in soft leathers that not only spell luxury but comfort as well. Like the previous season, the exotic alligator skin, a reptile native to the American continent, is making its grand comeback in either a trench coat (inset, top), full skirt suit with tailored collared jacket, or bomber jacket with fur trimmed collar, all in the same hue of dark brown.
Non-leather items within this collection includes tweed suits, double breasted jackets with matching box-pleated skirt, blue suede jacket with straight collar and straight skirt, patterned Isle cardigan with knee-length hem, printed button dress with frilled knee-length hemline in brown, knitted patterned V-neck sweater dress with frilled hemline, men's tuxedo and plunging belted v-neck dress in printed chiffon. Kelly bag, the accessory of the season at Hermès was made available in several versions include foldable suede, miniature crocodile and oversize.

Though warm autumnal colors of brown, beige, black, ocher, and gray were used as the main working color palette by Nichanian and Gaultier, the eye-soothing cerulean blue that's much more appropriate to be used in summer managed to make its way in Nichanian's Fall/Winter collection.
For shirts, prints remained the house's mainstay and black-and-white is their main color. One of them was worn with the alligator jacket (inset, left) on top. Another personal favorites are cerulean blue velvety collared zip-front shirt with ribbed hem and black turtleneck sweater.
Overall, Nichanian has done a great job for the menswear department and she, just like her co-designer Gaultier, deserves an applause from the fashion community.
The Hermès Fall/Winter 2007-08 Collection will be available in Hermès boutiques starting this September to early October while the Spring/Summer 2007 Collection is already in stores now.
