After almost 40 years of crafting Hermès' menswear division and steering its direction, Véronique Nichanian will take her final bow as its artistic director this Sunday. The Hermès Autumn/Winter 2026 menswear runway show will be her last and it's set to be quite an affair.

The location of the show is already different from season's past. Palais Brongniart will be where the runway show is set to take place. The building built by Napoleon in the early 19th century to house the Paris stock exchange will also host the party right after—the show is scheduled to start at 8pm Paris time instead of the usual afternoon slot.

The teaser of the show is already showing some snippets of Nichanian's work for Hermès over the decades. Perhaps she will be revisiting some of them, and if she does, most likely they'll take on different forms.

For confirmation of what the Hermès Autumn/Winter 2026 menswear collection will look like, stay tuned for the show this Saturday. And for an even closer look at the collection, follow @esquiresg on Instagram as we bring you the action live from Paris Fashion Week Men's.
