A Guide to Hermes Pinks

In the eyes of the Hermes collector community, if you’re serious about pink, you know it’s not just a color; it’s a collection.

Hermes is known for its exceptional craftsmanship and timeless designs, and one of the most coveted colors in their collection is pink. With a growing portfolio of pink hues, Hermes pinks are truly captivating. Depending on the leather material, such as Swift or Taurillon Clemence, or Epsom, these pinks can appear lighter or darker, making each shade unique. Just like other popular Hermes colors, such as blues and greens, pink has historically performed well at auctions compared to other colors. It’s no wonder that certain hues of pink have gained a cult following due to their seasonality.

In this guide to Hermes pinks, we’re sharing some of the many peachy shades you can find at FASHIONPHILE known for being undoubtedly high in demand.
