Hermès’ seamless peacoat is one of those pieces that reveals a dreamy universe to the beholder. Through a unique hand-done molding technique, the peacoat acquires a precision in its cut capable of clearly adopting the undulations of the ever so simple and distinguished Hermès woman. The great simplicity of luxury happens here in these lines that are both soft and assured. Hermès cut this timeless piece in a felt made of Mongolian cashmere, and no seam will ever disrupt the rigor and the obviousness of this piece. A pure peacoat, a jacket so well thought up that it immediately seems to belong on you. In its shade of Chinese blue, this peacoat possesses something haunting, something that torments the mind upon looking at this color that belongs to an eclipsed nighttime.
This elegance is entirely restrained, and confined to chic. A soft elegance that is extraordinary in its obviousness. Chirstophe Lemaire is here playing with a resolutely strict line, who’s cut was made with great rigor. This navy blue peacoat with a collar all the way around is establishing itself as an essential piece, a must-have. The peacoat may have once been for sailors, but this one was specially conceived to give a discreetly elegant Parisian the maximum possible protection from any fashionably inclement weather.
