Tag: Hermès

As ever, I’ll be throwing my holiday party, and I’ve set the unfortunate precedent of serving fancy cocktails. So now there’s pressure to perform.

Hermès sat patiently waiting in a cramped temporary space in the shadow of the Buckhead Atlanta development for years. The Parisian heritage brand has finally gotten its cornerstone store, customized right down to the Greek key pattern framing the windows.

Clustered around Buckhead Avenue and Bolling Way, Hermès, Etro, Theory, Canali, and Brunello Cucinelli started selling their tony wares this morning. Among them are storefronts with signs for shops to come—some as soon as next week—including Moncler, Dior, Tod's, Bonobos, Scoop NYC, and Warby Parker.

Fall fashion has arrived with faraway patterns, rich textures, full silhouettes, and earthy tones, inspiring wanderlust that brings to mind a different kind of runway.

For years, talk of fancy shops at Peachtree and Roswell roads in Buckhead has buzzed and abated as the cranes creaked on and off. Finally, as the mixed-use Buckhead Atlanta development fills the longtime hole in the ground, the chatter comes to fruition.
