{Party} Highlight: Hermès Scotts Square Launch and Graffiti party

December 13, 2011
When I think of Hermès, I think of carriages, galloping horses, ladylike bags, and lotsof orange.  Graffiti is probably the last thing to come to mind! Well Hermès has shown that their style is ever evolving.  The luxury brand collaborated with French graffiti artist Kongo to not only create a few new scarf styles, but also to design an edgy look and feel for their Scotts Square in Singapore.  I still like the classic scarf designs, but it is nice to have options!I was intrigued by this funky new collaboration and promise of macarons so I had to stop by the store opening on Friday, December 9.  I was definitely greeted by that oh so lovely orange and the macarons with the most decadent fudgey center (I may have had a few, don’t tell my low carb/sugar diet).  Kongo created all the windows for the story in psychedelic colors and also contributed to Graff Hermès – a fun photo booth where anyone could take pictures in a Hermès cutout.   He also created custom graffiti tags for a few hours as well (I totally missed this part, but seriously how fun would that have been?)

I love that art isn’t confined to or designated only as street art.  It is just art – an image that expresses the emotions of its creators and evokes a response in the rest of us.
The macarons may have made me philosophical

Here are a few shots from the event:
Photo booth cutout – it looks exactly like the scarf!

Yum…

    Cool scarfs! Very different from the traditional patterns, but if you think about how this would look looped gracefully around your neck, I think even this edgy pattern could look quite elegant!

    I NEEEEED that belt in my life!!! like yesterday!

    that is so neat that they did a graffiti scarf!

    i actually don’t have a maxi.. and truthfully i always thought the same as you.. but lately i’ve been thinking the maxi’s pretty neat and very high fashion.. especially the vintage ones! as for the hidden sequins one.. if it’s the one i’m thinking of.. the black on black sequins?? then i’m not really a fan.. it looks like a computer bag to me..

  • Lisa December 14, 2011 at 06:50

    WAIT! is it this one?

    http://forum.purseblog.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1129235&d=1276539406

    there’s been a couple different sequin flaps in the past few seasons.. the MOST recent sequin flap the black on black i’m not a fan of.. but then i remembered those sequins where on the outside.. but then i got to thinking that you said HIDDEN sequins. so i googled it and this came up.. is it this one??? BECAUSE IF SO I AM SO JELLY.. did you find one?! these were sold out so fast!!!!!!

  • Johanna December 14, 2011 at 17:21
