Nadège Vanhee put an haute spin on “tomato girl summer” attire.
Nadège Vanhee set a pastoral scene for her runway show, transforming the Garde Republicaine into a meadow of tall grasses ready for “an impromptu picnic, unhurried chatter, birdsong, a lack of constraints,” according to the show notes.
Silk ribbed knit bra tops — that’s right, Hermès bra tops — were the foundations for the look involving tattersall cotton check full skirts and shorts with leather paper-bag waists, eyelet embroidered puff-sleeve dresses, and ribbed knit sets with contouring button plackets and cutouts highlighting the bare midriff.
No fashion fireworks here, of course: These were new classics aimed at capturing the attention of the younger customer. That approach seems to be working for Hermès, which reported sales up 28 percent in the second quarter of 2023, and ready-to-wear up 35.1 percent.
