As quintessential as the Hermès accessories, its beauty collections are just as enduring and universally flattering. With its delicately tinted and intensely glossy signature/finish, a touch of colour is transformative to any mood and look. The Object: Designed to Last
A nod to the storied visual codes of Hermès, the object designed by Pierre Hardy, Creative Director of Hermès Beauty objects, has been elongated and refined, lending an even more elegant visual appeal. The collection elevates lipstick to the realm of high craftsmanship, presented in the same materials as the first Rouge Hermès lipsticks: lacquered, brushed and polished metal with black, white and permabrass finishes, and topped with the engraved ex-libris. As with the rest of the beauty objects, the lipstick bullet comes in a refillable case and crafted as a sustainably striking, keep-forever possession. The Colour: Formidable Formulas
In this second beauty chapter, Rouge Hermès finds new expression in a subtle veil of colour with buildable intensity for definition. The 14 light-filled shades and a limited edition of three further colours conceived by Gregoris Pyrpylis reveal beauty in a veritable halo of hues, living up to the metier's inimitable colour creation. Among them are five emblematic Rouge Hermès colours: Rouge Casaque, Rouge H, Rouge Amazone, Rose Boisé and Rose Épicé, all reinterpreted in this glossy finish. The limited-edition collection is composed of three shades conceived by Gregoris Pyrpylis as three rays of coloured light: Beige Halo, Orange Flash, and Rose Gélatine. Featuring a slender bullet with a slanted tip infused with a hybrid formula and natural base of raspberry leaf extract to moisturise and plump, sesame seed extract to smooth and soften, Abyssinian oil to nourish and protect, and white mulberry, the velvety texture leaves on a supple and elegant feeling on the lips akin to the Maison's silk scarves. The Accessory: Free and Forward-thinking
Classic yet ahead of its game, Hermès takes beauty further with a functional two-tone belt that perfectly complements the house's style. It is designed for the woman on the move to be free and agile and for the object to be portable, easy to wear, and accessible. – For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and Instagram

The One That Started It All: Jane Birkin's Original Hermès Bag Heads to Auction at Sotheby's
This July, Sotheby's Paris will offer collectors and admirers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: to own the original Birkin—the very handbag designed for and with Jane Birkin herself, that would go on to define modern luxury. For decades, the Birkin has held court as the most recognisable and elusive accessory on the planet. But before it became […] This July, Sotheby's Paris will offer collectors and admirers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: to own the original Birkin—the very handbag designed for and with Jane Birkin herself, that would go on to define modern luxury. For decades, the Birkin has held court as the most recognisable and elusive accessory on the planet. But before it became synonymous with waitlists and wealth, it was just a beautifully made black leather bag, crafted by Hermès in 1984 for a woman known for turning simple into chic. That exact bag will lead Sotheby's inaugural Fashion Icons auction in Paris on July 10, just as the world's style set descends on the capital for Haute Couture Week. Exhibited publicly only a handful of times—from Sotheby's Paris galleries to their Hong Kong maison—the original Birkin is marked by seven unique design details that separate it from every iteration since. While the first Birkin bags created by Hermès were 40 cm in size, and then by 35 cm in size, the original Birkin is a hybrid of the two sizes; It has the width and height of a Birkin 35 with the depth of a Birkin 40, with unique studs, zipper, hardware and the strap. A handmade prototype rich with patina and lived-in character, it is unmistakably Jane: practical, iconic, and a little bit rebellious. Before it goes under the hammer, the bag will appear in a rare public showing at Sotheby's New York galleries from June 6-12. 'It's incredible to think that a bag designed as a practical solution has grown into such a defining emblem of luxury,' says Morgane Halimi, Sotheby's Global Head of Handbags and Fashion. 'The prototype that started it all carries a soul and legacy that no other handbag can claim.' 'There are rare moments when an object transcends trend and becomes a legend,' Halimi continues. 'Jane Birkin's original bag is such a moment. A true unicorn in fashion history, it belongs in the same breath as Princess Diana's Black Sheep jumper or Freddie Mercury's crown and cloak.' The bag's final sale estimate remains confidential, but expectations are unsurprisingly high. What Sotheby's does confirm is that the bag will join an illustrious line-up of archival fashion pieces in the Paris Fashion Icons sale—from sculptural pieces by Thierry Mugler to rare runway looks by Dior, Galliano, McQueen, and Azzedine Alaïa. Bidding will open online from June 26 to July 10, and viewings will be held at Sotheby's Paris galleries on rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré from July 3-9. As always, Sotheby's continues to lead the secondary market for Hermès handbags—whether it's a crisp white Himalaya, a neon Limited Edition, or the rarest collector's pieces in alligator, ostrich, or box calf. Today, over 1,200 Hermès bags are available for immediate purchase on Sotheby's Buy Now platform, a digital trove for serious collectors and first-timers alike. But none of them carry the legacy of this one. Because only one bag was carried by Jane Birkin—and only one started it all.
