London | Hermès “Leather Forever”

Leather is, and always has been, a signifier of class and cool.

This exhibition, celebrating 175 years of the French designer brand Hermes, has a host of exquisite handbags on show, looking at their design, creation and status. So coo over the bags you can’t afford, but dream one day might be able to.

Until May 27, 2012
