When the French fashion house Hermes met Aegina
Even the most ardent devotees of high fashion may be unaware of the deep-seated connection between the iconic fashion house Hermès and Greece, specifically the enchanting island of Aegina. The modernization of Hermès into a global fashion powerhouse can be largely attributed to its President, Jean-Louis Dumas, and his Greek architect wife, Rena Grigoriadis, who sadly passed away in 2010 and 2009 respectively.
