For The Past Four Years, Innovative Fashion Photographer Koto Bolofo Has Had Behind The Scenes Access To The Hermes Fashion Empire. Bolofo, Well Known For His Portraits And Fashion Shoots, And Published In Such Prestigious Periodicals As Vouge, Esquire And i-D, Came To Monde d'Hermes In 2004 When He Met Hermes Head Jean-Louis Dumas, One Of Seventeen Cousins Who Constitute The 5th Generation Heading The Company.  Bolofo Recalls That "Mr. Dumas Asked Where I Came From.  I Said South Africa.  He Asked What Part.  I Said Lesotho.  He Was Shocked And Very Excited.  He Explained That His Great, Great, Great Grandfather Was A Missionary In Lesotho And That The Zulus Used To Attack His Mission, But The Sothos-My Tribe Protected Him.  He Called Me His Cousin And Said That His Cousin  Was Welcome Anytime And I Had Carte Blanche To Photograph What I Like In Hermes."  La Maison Contains Exclusive Images Made As Bolofo Worked His Way Through Hermes Workshops, Discovering How Their Wares  Are Made, From Handbags, Perfumes, Scarfs, Pret-A-Porter And Shoes To The First Accessory Ever Produced By The House: Saddles.  Nothing Escaped His Lens, Not Even The Museum, A Treasure Trove Of Hermes History, Tucked Away On Ru Du Faubourg St. Honere.
