Renowned American fashion designer Michael Kors has once again chosen Greece as his summer escape, returning to the enchanting island of Hydra. The idyllic destination in the Saronic Gulf has clearly captured his heart, as he also vacationed there last year.

This time, Kors shared his admiration for Greece with his 19.2 million Instagram followers through a heartfelt post accompanied by photos from Hydra.

“The warmth of the people, the turquoise waters and the laid-back vibe… I am always thrilled to return to my beloved Greece!! We’re always on the move. As Diana Vreeland said, ‘The eye has to travel!’ – xxMK”

The post quickly attracted thousands of likes and comments, with admirers from around the globe applauding his choice of destination.

From New York to the world of fashion

Born in New York in 1959, Michael Kors launched his namesake label in 1981. Over the decades, he has become synonymous with accessible luxury, with his clothing, handbags, and accessories embraced by celebrities, world leaders, and fashion lovers worldwide.

Today, his brand is a cornerstone of Capri Holdings Limited—alongside Versace and Jimmy Choo—generating billions in annual revenue. Beyond fashion, Kors has also been widely recognized for his philanthropy, especially his dedication to fighting global hunger.

Greece in the global spotlight

By openly declaring his affection for Greece, Michael Kors joins a long list of international figures who spotlight the country’s charm to the world. Hydra, famed for its preserved architecture, absence of cars, and cosmopolitan yet tranquil atmosphere, continues to inspire artists, writers, and designers.

Once again, Greece proves itself not only a destination for relaxation but also a timeless source of creativity and cultural inspiration.
