Last year, Brent and I wanted to have lunch at the new Pastis in Nashville, and Hermes had also just opened. I thought about running in, but there was a line, and really, the Hermes bags aren’t my favorite in general and I’m not a scarf girl. I have a Hermes bracelet but I’m not a huge jewelry person. So I appreciate the brand more for the equestrian side and especially their aesthetic around that part of the line. It’s very sharp.
Hermes hired Nashville artist Herb Williams (who’s from Prattville AL) to make these incredible birch trees and this horse from his media, Crayons.
It can be viewed so much better at night:

The Montgomery Museum of Art has his Black Poodle in its collection:
and I think I’ve seen his Ripple at the Atlanta airport.
a new interview with him from Nashville Public Radio:
A couple of years ago at King of Prussia, I was able to see these Hermes windows.
So many more gorgeous high-end window displays from TwoSeven.
I’m so taken with these Heavy Eyes pieces for the KoP Hermes, especially the desert scene with the ant colony too.
