French lux brand Hermès has us dreaming of picnics, croquet, and Birkin bags with its latest crop of leisure-themed stop-motion spots, “Vive Le Sport.” Touting its spring/summer 2013 accessories with a play on park life, four short videos directed by Simon Cahn showcase the brand with a burst of fresh spring air. Hermès ties loop into croquet hoops, pillows snooze with pétanque balls, shoes play leapfrog, and the oh so iconic Birkins watch the latest line of Hermès tableware play pingpong. And, of course, the brand's beloved silk scarves make an appearance as flags. Did you notice the lovely soundtrack of tweeting birds? Neither did we. We just wanna make out with those Birkins.
