Rolls-Royce Teams Up with Hermes to Create a Bespoke Vehicle for a Billionaire

Super-car enthusiast and art collector billionaire Yusaku Maezawa was looking for something extraordinary and commissioned Rolls-Royce to design for him the ultimate

Phantom in collaboration with French fashion house Hermés. Maezawa wanted a color that would match his recently designed private aircraft.

Collaborating as a special team, Rolls-Royce and Hermès have created a one-of-a-kind Phantom. The luxury car features a pronounced two-tone exterior finish that combines MZ Oribe Green and cream. The paint colors chosen reflect Maezawa’s color collection of ancient Japanese ceramics. The special green shade matches his private jet.

The cabin interior is wrapped in Hermès Enea Green leather, including all the immediate touch-points such as the steering wheel, duchess handles, gear selector, and the rotary controls for the motor car’s climate settings. The Hermès leather can also be found in the glove compartment and luggage compartment lining, center console, decanter stowage compartment, and Champagne cooler. The headrest cushions and calf supports of the rear seats get delicate Hermès piping, while the green upholstery is contrasted with soft Seashell White accents and matching lambswool floor mats. The glove compartment lid also features the signature Habillé par Hermès Paris.

The Rolls-Royce craftsmanship details can be seen on design elements such as the wooden speaker frets made using perforated Open Pore Royal Walnut veneer, which can also be found in the center and rear consoles and picnic table backs. For Phantom’s Gallery, Hermès commissioned an artwork based on a design by the celebrated French artist Pierre Péron (1905–1988), who created many Hermés’ well-recognized scarves. Inspired by the famous Hermès horse motif, the artwork is hand-painted on Open Pore Royal Walnut and is presented as staged in an art gallery behind glass.
