Introducing Hermès 2025 Colors. The image highlights six of the house’s iconic bags in the new hues of the year. Top left, a Constance bag in Gris Argenté, a luminous, metallic shade. On the right, a Kelly Mini in Vert Mangrove, a deep, sophisticated green, followed by a Chaîne d’Ancre bag in Rouge Radieux, a vibrant blue-based red. Below, a Kelly in Gris Pantin, a cool, subtly blue shade, an Evelyne bag in Bleu Tie, a medium blue with gray highlights, and finally a Birkin in New Bleu Hydra, a vibrant, electric blue.

Every year, Hermès unveils new colors that enrich its iconic palette. For 2025, the house is offering a unique selection, with shades that will get people talking, for better or worse. As always, some will become must-haves, others will divide, but one thing is for sure: there will be plenty to debate.

So what are this year's new shades?

 

GRIS ARGENTÉ

Cousin of the Doré color launched during the 2024 Olympic Games (see article) , the Gris Argenté is making its big comeback at Hermès in 2025.

And yes, it is indeed a comeback for this iconic shade! Back in 2005, Hermès introduced it in its Mondore collection alongside an elegant bronze. Fancy a little trip down memory lane? Find this 2005 version, 20 years before its return, in my article on the 10 rarest Hermès bags by clicking here.

So far, only one image of this Gris Argenté applied to a bag is available (the Constance 18 pictured above).

However, digging a little deeper into women's shoes, we find this leather on certain sandals... A discreet appearance that hints at its potential before its wider deployment? To be continued!

Vert Mangrove is a deep, muted duck green, marked by strong shades of gray. It is halfway between the forest green of Vert Cyprès and the intensity of Bleu Orage.

Depending on the light, it can appear almost black, while in brighter lighting its cool green-gray highlights stand out more.

Comparison of three shades of Hermès leather: Vert Cyprès, a deep green with cool undertones and a pronounced grained texture; Vert Mangrove, a dark, neutral green with a finer, more uniform grain; and Bleu Orage, a sophisticated blue-gray with a textured leather. The image highlights the differences in shades and finishes of these iconic colors.

Vert Mangrove is available in two types of leather: Epsom leather and Clémence Taurillon leather.

The boldest of the collection, Rouge Radieux stands out with its bright, blue-based red. Unlike warmer, orange-toned reds like Rouge De Cœur, this pure shade has a cooler tone while remaining just as vibrant.

Comparison of three shades of Hermès red: Rouge de Cœur, a warm red with slightly orange highlights and a grainy texture; Rouge Radieux, a bright and luminous red with a cool base and a smooth finish; and Rouge Casaque, an intense and vibrant red with a marked grain. The image highlights the subtleties of the hues and textures to better appreciate their differences.

Rouge Radieux is available in two types of leather: Clémence Taurillon leather and Epsom leather.

A new addition to Hermès’ growing gray collection, Gris Pantin adopts a cool shade with blue highlights. Evoking Bleu Glacier and Bleu Pâle, while approaching the Gris Platine launched in 2024, this subtly icy shade revisits neutral with a modern twist. Its name, Pantin, refers to the city where Hermès manufactures and its headquarters are located.

Comparison of three light shades of Hermès leather: Bleu Glacier, a cool, slightly frosted blue with a grained texture; Gris Pantin, a subtle gray with blue undertones and a finer, more regular grain; and Bleu Pâle, a soft, luminous shade with a textured leather. The image highlights the differences in tone and finish between these three elegant and sophisticated colors.

Gris Pantin is available in two types of leather: Clémence Taurillon leather and Madame leather.

Bleu Tie is an intermediate blue with a subtle shade of gray, located between Bleu de Malte and Bleu de Presse. Less bright than shades like Bleu Royal, it brings a cold and muted touch to the palette of Hermès blues.

The image highlights the subtle differences in tone and texture between these elegant shades.

The Bleu Tie is available in one type of leather: Taurillon Clémence.

While fashion has recently turned to the renaissance of Bleu Jean (now New Bleu Jean), another iconic shade is making a comeback in 2025. New Bleu Hydra revives the punchy vibrancy of its 2012 predecessor. This bright, electric blue retains all of its intensity and captivating power —and it’s my favorite color from Hermès.

Comparison of three shades of Hermès blue: Bleu Frida, a bright, light blue with luminous highlights; New Bleu Hydra, an intense, saturated blue with a deeper touch; and Bleu Électrique, a deep, dark blue with a slightly purplish undertone. The image highlights the differences in tone and texture between these vibrant shades.

The New Bleu Hydra is available in two types of leather: Togo leather and Mysore Goat leather.

Comparison of the New Bleu Hydra shade on two types of Hermès leather: Chèvre Mysore and Togo. On the left, a Hermès bag in Chèvre Mysore leather, a fine, slightly shiny leather with a tight, even grain, offering a smooth and elegant texture. On the right, a Birkin bag in Togo leather, a softer leather with a more pronounced, textured grain, giving a more matte and natural appearance.
