A French fashion house Hermès is mainly associated with Birkin bag - the attribute of success, style and class. But Hermès is also one of most important sources of inspirations and trends for every season.

Spring/Summer 2011 collection by Hermès was designed by Jean Paul Gaultier, who, once more, proved his genius as a designer, artist and a show-man. This time he created a rodeo show with models walking right next to horses being broken in on the paddock.

Inspired with gaucho style, the collection underlined the avocation of Hermes fashion house for quality products, natural leather as well as the inherent attachment to this raw material.

Watching the show (i.e here), I advice paying attention to fantastic leather skinnies - they're very elegant, deprived of rock element. Next to them, leather corsets, belts and bracelets are also noticeable. Fitted jumpsuits and loose pants are making a huge impression. Everything is elegant, of highest quality and class.
