Hermès Spring/Summer 2026 Menswear Collection is a Dreamlike Ode to Lightness and Ease
- Nada Armanious
Hermès reimagines summer in the city as a breath of air: weightless, grounded, and quietly radical. For Spring/Summer 2026, the house presents a men’s collection shaped by freedom and ease, where lightness meets structure and heritage flirts with modernity. This season, elegance doesn’t try too hard; it simply floats.

Relaxed silhouettes drift through the collection: loose, short-cut trousers, open-weave textures, high-waisted pleats, boxy jackets, and easy V-neck shirts. Everything feels considered yet undone, stitched with a certain softness that moves with the day.
The color story is as muted as a warm breeze, with shades like putty, kraft, caramel, coffee, hemp, elephant grey, ficelle, chalk, and stone. Then come the accents: flashes of burgundy, mint green, intense vanilla, and the glint of ice.
But it’s the textures that quietly steal the scene. Think openwork lambskin, braided calfskin, silk twill, washed silks, cotton drill- materials that invite touch, woven with care and technical precision. Accessories follow suit: jewelry and belts crafted in Swift calfskin, palladium-finish metal, horn, and leather braiding. Footwear finishes the look with rope-soled open-toe sandals, suede slip-ons, and sculpted derbies in waxed calfskin and crocodile.
