Hermès is somewhat of a gorgeous mystery. How exactly do they craft and build a bag so perfect that it is loved (and waited for) the world over? It seems so simple, but anyone who's ever stared into the window on Oak Street knows it's not. Wonder no more, because Hermès is about to spill it. Starting Friday, March 11, through Wednesday, March 16, join Hermès for The Festival of Crafts. Hermès craftsmen will be in-store, teaching die-hard fans about all those special and perhaps overlooked details of this illusive, yet thoroughly obsessed brand. Just when you thought you couldn't appreciate a Kelly any more.
Hermès, 25 East Oak Street (at Rush Street); 312-787-8175.
