Usually the Hermes windows don’t hold anything back when it comes to their luxurious Christmas windows with over the top displays of sheer decadence. This year Hermes has pulled back: Gone are the vibrant colors and metallic finishes and in their place are subtle, toned down pastel and dusty desert tones of beige, pink, pale blue, sage, and apricot.
The curious mix of cacti, wicker chairs and love seats, and sea shells has me guessing what the exact theme is. Is it the desert or the seaside? Please tell me if you can figure it out.
