The elusive “Birkin bag” made by Hermes is so sought after as a status symbol by women worldwide that the French fashion house has a two year waiting list for potential owners…
The elusiveness of the Birkin bag has ensured it has remained one of the world’s most coveted bags since Hermes named it after British actress Jane Birkin in 1984, with prices starting at about $9,000 and rising to about $34,000 for a crocodile skin bag.
The one-step, one-stop shop guide to buying a Birkin bag.
Actress Charlotte Gainsbourg sat down with Time Magazine to talk about her upcoming album IRM, her role in “Antichrist,” and growing up with two famous parents: French singer Serge Gainsbourg and British model Jane Birkin. She said, “When I was starting out, my mother made me very aware that you could have ups and downs. One day you’re acclaimed and the next day you’re booed. She taught me to never take anything for granted.”
But what about one of her mother’s major ups: the Hermes Birkin bag? Does Charlotte own one?
She also reflected on recording the song “Lemon Incest” with her father and her father’s attraction to provocation.
Courtney Love recently sat down with WWD and she talked about the turning point in her fashion life: when she got a Birkin Bag six months ago. Love remarked, “I got my first Birkin at age 45. Do you buy it yourself or do you let someone buy it for you?”
