Article | Trompe L’Oeil Birkin: Hermes A/W 200 | closettherapyblog.com

So I completely missed NY Fashion Week but no matter, I’ll cover it after the majors, Paris Fashion Week. In today’s Hermes A/W 2009 show, Gaultier debuts what he’s dubbed as the “Trompe L’Oeil Birkin”… a simplified Birkin without the flap.

This immediately interested me as this is how I normally carry my birkin — with the flap tucked into the bag for easy access to the main pocket. It seems to be what these new Birkins look like, although I can’t tell yet from WWD’s images if he’s made any changes to the wrap-around strap and hardware in the front. Can’t wait to see though!
