Animal lovers, close your eyes : Hermes has released a $150,000 Crocodile peacoat !

That eternally classic item of military-inspired menswear, the peacoat, has been interpreted in myriad different ways and fabrics over the years since it was first adopted by European navies some 250 years ago.

Mens designer Veronique Nichanian released this elite item at the famed fashion house’s Fall / Winter 2008-09 collection show. The luxurious jacket is made entirely from top-grade crocodile skin.

There are currently two navy blue coats at the flagship store on Manhattan’s Upper East Side. Other coats may be special ordered for a finished product that will arrive in 3-4 months.

The latest and most exciting bag off the Hermes Fall runway is the Jypsiere bag (aka the Birkin messenger) designed by Jean Paul Gaultier. He was seen wearing the androgynous shoulder bag down the runway following his Fall ’08 show for Hermes.

The bag is fashioned after a hunting satchel in which Gaultier describes as “a functional, nonchalant bag slung across the shoulder, combined with the iconic details of the Hermes bags”.

The much anticipated bag has yet to make its first appearance but apparently, there is already a long waiting list in the United States.

The protective case is built specifically to keep your apples perfectly encased, shielding them from jabbing pens and exploding bronzers that could end up damaging your cherished iPhone. The strap is equipped with a handy knife holder, so you’ve got no excuses left as to why you’re not getting your daily vitamins!

The quirky green, lambkin bags are part of the launch of Hermès’ new site addition called,”Travel the World of Hermès.”

The Yohji is the new bag produced by the French Maison Hermes. The bag already boasts a prestigious primacy: this is the first creation designed by Hermes joinlty with a designer…and what a designer! As the bag´s name suggests, the project was carried out by Yohji Yamamoto.

The Yohji bag made its debut at Yohji Yamamoto’s Autumn-Winter 2008 show in Paris recently. “Yohji” features a simple and flowing style, to the extent that it might be considered as an unisex item. As for the fabrics, the bag was manufactured with precious Barenia calfskin, though those presented at the Paris Fashion Week were also made of crocodile leather.

This limited made-to-order bag will only be available at the Hermès flagship stores in Paris, Tokyo and London, and comes in three different sizes of 35, 38 and 41 cm. Prices range from €4,100 to €7,100 (US$6,330 to US$10,960).

Harking back to a collaboration first initiated in the 1920s, Bugatti has teamed up with haute couture house Hermes and designer Gabriele Pezzini, to accessorize the Veyron.

Showcased for the first time at the 2008 Geneva Autoshow, the Bugatti Veyron Fbg par Hermes is named after Hermes’ historical headquarters on the Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honore in Paris.

The “Fbg” references the house’s “faubourg” address.

Hermes is acknowledged as one of the most luxurious and prestigious brands in the world that offers a range of beautiful items from scarves to handbags and gloves to clothing.

The carbon fiber briefcase from the house speaks of style, sleekness and lavishness. It has a carbon fiber outercase, tan leather inner lining and handle, 18K gold plated locks and classic styling.

To make it more personal, the small plate on the briefcase can be engraved with your name initials. The carbon fiber briefcase is the just right thing for the executives to make a style statement.
