Voyage into Carré Hermes'

Hermes calls its scarf a carre, a square. A truly magical object, this silk cloth of 90 square centimeters (about 36") transports its wearer to imaginary world inhabited by horses, wild animals, beautiful trees and flowers, people of mysterious lands or even little stubby pencils, clips and buttons in the pocket. Over 1,500 drawings have been produced for Carre Hermes by painters, illustrators, graphic designers, or simply art lovers around the world since the very first one appeared in 1937. "There is a lot of fantasy in a carre, just because it's such a free space", exalts Bali Barret, director of the women's silk department at Hermes.

Re-Bag

Curated By Progress Packaging, Re-Bag is an exhibition of limited edition reusable canvas bags designed by 15 leading UK design practitioners.

Designers responded to a brief to create an image for a bag on the theme of sustainability and reusability.

The resulting bags not only promote this idea but are also in themselves, an eco-friendly alternative to the use of non-green materials in everyday packaging.
All bags are screen printed white on dark grey canvas and produced in limited edition of 250 of each design

Bags will be available to buy from the show and via Designers Re-Bag
