Not much can replace a stylish in-store experience, apart from a beautifully curated website that you can get immersed in without leaving your home.

Slip into your Oran slides, grab your coffee in a Cheval d’Orient cup and indulge in some retail therapy via the first Hermès digital stores in Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

Both of the platforms from the luxury brand manage to capture the ambience and feel of the physical stores, from window displays to the wide selection of products across ready-to-wear, accessories, beauty and homeware. You can also expect the same level of storytelling and exceptional customer service making your shopping experience just as seamless as you’d expect.

In Saudi Arabia, the launch of hermes.com establishes the Parisian house’s very first retail outlet in the country while, in the UAE, Hermès reinforces its omni-channel network of three stores.

Not only will you have VIP access to regional events and cultural programmes, but Hermès will also curate editorial content – films, photographs and articles – to help you discover more about the celebrated Maison. These narratives tell the stories behind the objects, artisans, workshops, events, materials, artists, know-how and fashion shows.

Hermès also shares its commitment to sustainable development, for example through the Empreintes Sur Le Monde (Footsteps Across The World) films by Frédéric Laffont, which show the house’s craftsmanship model and how it seeks to have a positive impact on the world.

A dazzling example of how e-commerce can work in favour of a respected Maison, you can expect us to spend a little more time scrolling through the latest drops on hermes.com.

Saudi shoppers can access the digital world of Hermès via hermes.com/ri/en while UAE customers can head to.hermes.com/dh/en
