For The First Time Ever, Hermes Has A Creative Director For Fashion Accessories
Hermes has installed a creative director of fashion accessories within its house, a single role that oversees four of its existing ateliers: gloves, belts, hats and fashion jewellery. The woman who has taken up the mantle: Clemande Burgevin Blachman, a design guru who has spent most of her career behind the scenes and has lent her modernist eye to everything from bags to advertising and, most notably, furniture and interiors. In an exclusive interview with FEMALE – her first with a publication from Asia – she tells us that what makes a great fashion accessory is a free mind.
