Tennis players like Suzanne Lenglen were trendsetters in female tennis fashion in the twenties. And now their looks have been brought back by Jean Paul Gaultier for the Hermés spring summer 2010 collection.

The line brings us a timeless style, a sporty touch, classic elegance and elitist luxury. The values of Hermés are reflected in this unique tribute to the tennis world of yesteryear.

Cardigans designed for the tennis court, elegant pure white blazers, pleated mini-skirts, shorts, jumpers and halter-neck navy jerseys. And of course their maxi-birkins are sporty. The pure white bags became sought-after pieces as soon as they hit the catwalk.

Daytime is comfortable while the evening is casual chic, distinguished and distanced from trends but with a distinctive identity.

The accessories line features iconic hairbands, and the brand's handbags are still every woman's dream. Eva Herzigova was the icon of the evening, opening and closing the show with her spectacular presence. And Gaultier's smile showed that the designer is still really enjoying his work.
