Hermes spring/summer collection
Look 55
Hermès Spring 2024 Ready-to-Wear Fashion Show | Vogue
This looks follows along the more dressy and sleek style, the hair slicked back adds to the snazzy look. The scoop neckline creates more boxy shoulders on this model. As decent as this outfit is the material and type of outfit are a bit controversial, it’s a summer outfit though they made it out of a leather material.
Look 12
Hermès Spring 2024 Ready-to-Wear Fashion Show | Vogue
This is an Elegant though still could be a casual outfit. The burgundy colour accentuates this model’s hair colour while still highlighting her face. The coat takes almost all her shape away. The hem of the shirt decreases her bustline and makes her curves invisible.
Look 9
Hermès Spring 2024 Ready-to-Wear Fashion Show | Vogue
This look is a great business casual outfit. The rolled sleeves add more shape and take away how droopy it looks. The large neckline highlights the small window where you’re able to see the shirt. The large bulky earrings create a more elegant and put together look.
While looking through this collection I’ve noticed a bit of a theme, with most having all one colour of either neutral or burgundy. A few brighter reds, though they seem to be brighter so it’s able to neutralize the skin tone. All the models have slicked back hair or at least it’s not in their face. Most of the earrings that are worn are the bigger and more bulky type that are noticeable no matter what. This collection is a part of a summer spring collection, yet it seems to be more focused on business casual and elegant fall weather outfits.

My philosophy on beauty
Throughout history the social standards of beauty have always been dictated by magazines or the media, some cant look at people and see the natural beauty said person has just how much more beauty that person has. Now I am sharing my views on beauty and what it is through makeup, fashion, and the media.
Does makeup enhance one’s beauty? In my life and through my experience, I have seen the way makeup empowers people, helped some show their beauty in the ways they love. People like drag queens and kings use makeup to change their identity and confidence levels, temporarily they are someone else. Others love to show off their awesome skills, or maybe they just like dressing up. I personally notice the way that my eyes look so much brighter when I have concealer on, the way eyeshadow makes me feel that much more seen. Is there such thing as to much? No. there is no such thing as to much makeup, thought maybe there is such thing as wrong makeup at the wrong time, such as if you were to wear rainbow coloured eyeshadow to a funeral. Obviously, there is very heavy types of makeup, just mind your own business and move on. How is it an art? Makeup is something that takes time, practice and effort, it’s a service people pay for when it’s a special day or even just to feel a little better. People practice it for years to do it for a profit. Makeup is used in movies, shows, videos, etc.. Makeup is a powerful tool that can create whatever you think it can. These are all examples that qualify as art, a makeup artist is still an artist.
Does style enhance beauty? I don’t believe style enhances beauty, your style is your own, if it makes you feel good, your beautiful, however I do think the clothes you wear enhance your best features. For example, if you have an apple shape body and you want to look your best an a-line dress would be great for you, since your top heavy it will bring attention to your waist. How does the fashion industry influence views on beauty? This entirely depends on which industry your referencing, certain industries can influence the wrong views on beauty, though in most of my experiences I’ve noticed the fashion industry only influences what you wear, not your views or standards on beauty. If anything, the fashion industry helps improve views on beauty by showing it comes in many shapes and sizes.
How does the media influence beauty standards? Through my experience the media shows that beauty is something everyone has, but still wants, though many have beauty they still desire it. People always compare themselves to others through the media, good or bad almost everyone does it. The media influences beauty as something you need to achieve not showing you the beauty you already have. How can young people be critical of the media? I believe they are critical of the media plainly just by being on it or around it, letting it be your main source of knowledge or ideas. I’ve seen many people withing the media become critical of it, there’s reason media platforms have age limits or restrictions, young people don’t need to become part of the growing issues the media shares and provides.
This is entirely based off of my own experience and opinions about beauty and the standards that drag along with it, in life everyone will have their own experiences and opinions within this topic.
Hopefully this philosophy makes sense.
