Hermès through its accessories

Karen Homer traces the evolution of the Hermès fashion house from its nineteenth-century saddlery workshop through 1960s Paris and later generations. Illustrated examples of the house’s accessories provide a visual thread, while the text places its designs in the context of changing fashion and the style icons associated with them, including Grace Kelly and Jane Birkin. The book offers a compact, object-led history of a luxury fashion label, connecting its origins in saddlery with its broader presence in wardrobes and accessories.
