Hermès Man on Madison Avenue



During my research for the NY trip, I came upon an article
that talked about Hermès's first men's store.

That sounds fabulous!!
I had to go investigate this further006.gif

On the second day in New York City,
we were out the hotel's revolving doors by 10 a.m.
to get to this Elysium at 690 Madison Avenue.
This manly store is right in front of the Hermès U.S. flagship store.

My first impression inside the boutique?

HOT.

I mean, literally.
The A.C. was broken, and on a hot NY day,
it felt more like Inferno than Elysium there031.gif
I was sweating like a whore in church by the 2nd floor.

A sheer misfortune.

Anyway, the store was filled with gorgeous items.
Of course, the biggest selection of men's products I've ever seen.
Ties, belts, shoes, wallets, ready-to-wear, made-to-order, etc...
I found this adorable lime green chambray blazer, but
the price tag was ugly, so I didn't get it015.gif

Actually, I was in the market for a bow tie.
I looked before in other Hermès stores, but not many to choose from.
But in this store, with walls covered in ties after ties,
I'd better find one I like. And I did.

Since this was my first real bow tie, I didn't know how to tie it.
Kindly enough, the store person taught me how. Twice.

After we were out on the cooler street,
buyer's remorse kicked in. That was a total impulse shopping004.gif

This is the manifestation of my impulse.

Oh well, it's pretty, and I like it.
I think I can live with this011.gif
