HERMES PURSES ARCHIVE
Regulars Rouge Hįirst created in 1925, Rouge H is one of Hermès’ signature archive colours. Our Etoupe bags on showing (1) Togo (2) Clemence and (3) Étain shades. If you’re looking for a grey without the brown undertone, we recommend Etain, another beloved neutral of the house. It has cooler tones than Gold, giving it a more utilitarian feel. Images EtoupeĪ grey-brown taupe, Etoupe is the versatile neutral of Hermès’ permanent library.
HERMES PURSES SKIN
The Hermès Gold tone on (1) Epsom (2) vintage Ostrich skin (3) Porc leather and the (4) Barenia Faubourg leather. If you love the caramel tones of Gold, another option to look out for is a bag made from natural Barenia leather, which will develop a unique patina as it ages. A buttery tan hue, it’s particularly beautiful with gold hardware. Gold is one of Hermès’ most in-demand colours, first popularised by Grace Kelly in the 1950s. The Hermès Noir (black) colour on (1) Togo leather (2) Doblis Suede (3) Swift and (4) Crocodile leather. Keep your eyes peeled for an Hermès ‘So Black’ style – complete with blackened hardware – for an edgier look. The colour of the original Birkin created for Jane Birkin herself, jet-black Noir leather is a shortcut to chic. Permanent NoirĮvery woman needs a Little Black Bag in her wardrobe. Hermès now offers three of these shades on a permanent basis in their bag collection, whilst others repeatedly crop up during seasonal releases. These six timeless tones – black, red, navy, dark green, brown and beige/cream – should be seen as the staples of any bag collection, and are always in demand on the secondhand market. Naturally, you’ll find that vintage Hermès bags are largely only available in these colourways, so if you’re scouring the market for a style from the ‘70s or ‘80s, your options will be more limited than with a contemporary bag. Before it expanded into the rainbow of pigments it now offers, Hermès originally kept to a tight edit of sophisticated shades: Noir, Rouge H, Blue Marine and Vert Anglais, adding Gold and Parchemin a little later. If you’re a first-time Hermès customer, it makes sense to start with a classic colour which will stand the test of time in your wardrobe.
