| LES CRAVATES PAR HERMES - INTERNATIONAL DESIGN COMPETITION more than a conceptual design competition, this is a call for production. it is the ambition of Hermès to produce the best entries and this is the REAL benefit of this contest. Hermès, house of quality, is world renowned for its fine silk, and particularly for ties. they embody fine craftsmanship, masterful design and timeless style. we expect to receive innovative and original pattern designs for ties that brighten up men's wardrobe. we want to be surprised by refined 'all-over' designs - repeating or non repeating patterns in which the motifs recur in a design covering the entire cloth. you are asked to develop a new pattern that could be either a re-interpretation of the Hermes classic patterns (equestrian -, sport -, marine theme, whimsical animal motifs, geometric variations including stripes, plant and flower designs and the H delicately imprinted across the surface of the tie) or something completely different, that could be used for the silk-screen printing - or weaving technique. the jury is composed of: pierre-alexis dumas, general artistic director - Hermès International véronique nichanian, artistic director Hermès men - Hermès Sellier / deputy men’s artistic director - Hermès International bali barret, creative director - Hermès Silk & Textiles / deputy women’s artistic director - Hermès International hélène dubrule, managing director - Hermès Silk & Textiles christophe goineau, director of men’s silk collection - Hermès Silk & Textiles christine duvigneau, graphic design studio director - Hermès International. corinne poux-bernard, innovation director - Hermès International gabriele pezzini, designer, design director - Hermès International birgit lohmann, editor-in-chief - designboom. register now!
