Fashion Hermes Birkin Bags-Handbagseshop

Designer handbags change with every season and what was at the top of the list last season may not be around this season. as fashionistas know, if you are caught carrying the wrong bag, you are probably going to hear about it from friends and see pictures of it even when your grandchildren are going to university!

So, what are the top designer bags of 2009? the usual names feature in the list. you will come across hermes birkin, louis vuitton, chanel and prada, among others.

The trend this year has been for big, functional bags that can actually even carry the kitchen stove top, if needed. voluminous bags that have separate compartments and may be slung over the shoulder while you go for a morning shopping spree or step into the airport. so, what brands are making these bags?

Hermes Birkin Bag frequently appear in the news. They are famous not only for their top quality craftsmanship, but also for the astounding price tags they command. The Hermes Birkin bags are a ready-to-wear couture brand that operates its high-end boutiques in the United States and abroad. Women flock to their landmark stores in the hopes of scoring their own perfect bag, which are traditionally in low supply and high demand.

Hermes Birkin Handbags are hand-built by experienced fashion artisans. This is one of the primary factors contributing to the high price of these exquisite handbags. The production of each bag may take up to 48 work hours, translating into weeks of production time. Hermes Handbags are made of the finest quality leather, including such materials as crocodile, ostrich, calf, and lizard skin. Birkin bags come with dust covers for the bags themselves, as well as dust covers for the lock and keys that accompany each authentic bag. All hardware is stamped with a Hermes "H" and each handbag has a telltale sign of authenticity. So, it's no wonder that women love to buy the Birkin bag.

See the most expensive bag in the world!



Have you seen “most expensive handbag in the world” ? It is Hermes Diamond Crocodile Birkin. The Hermes Diamond Crocodile Birkin is what Maybach is to cars, Schloss Neuschwanstein is to castles, Monaco is to luxurious nightlife. Ultra luxe croc on a Hermes Birkin is enough to make you beg at a strange SA’s feet, but paired with 14 carats of pave diamonds on the signature Birkin lock and clasp would send me into a continuous groveling state. Recently Doyle New York auctioned off a Hermes Diamond Croc Birkin which sold for $64,800. That price is reasonable, compared to a ‘$140,000 one-of-a-kind pink crocodile Birkin bag with diamond hardware that was sold in one day’ when the Hermes Palm Beach Store opened in February 2007. While a Croc Birkin is one my dream list, the diamond encrusted croc Birkin seems a bit farfetched for me, but is still a masterpiece and the pinnacle of all handbags. Feast your eyes on a bag that makes the LV tag of $45k look like chump change next to $140k. Source

MATERIAL: Box Calf and Crinoline (linen and horse tail hair)

CONDITION: This vintage Kelly is in lovely condition ~ there is very little marking to the box calf and no wear to the corners, the inside is super clean (though it does show some fingernail marking under the top) and the crinoline is bright and clean as well. There are a few of the hairs sticking up at the bend at the bottom of the bag ~ it's not visually very noticeable and I wasn't aware of them until I was running my hands over the bag checking the crinoline condition (crinoline is actually very strong, but this is where it would experience the most wear). There's also a very small glue spot on the back at the strap attachment and a very light, unobtrusive shadow on the top under the handle. (Please see photos.)

Your Kelly comes with its shoulder strap, lock and keys/clochette/tirette and old style brown dustbag. The shoulder strap is not original to this bag, but it matches as if it were (see photo).

Hermes Handbags for Ordinary People-Handbagseshop

Handbags are like an indicator of the taste of a woman now. Like one can judge a man from his shoes, women can be judged from the handbag they carry. Designer brands have opened up everywhere to cater to the high class business women of today who have to make an impression in the business world. The first impression that one makes is the last impression and for working women, especially those who work in the showbiz, their out look is the most important. Hermes is afashion house situated in Paris. Parisian fashion is known to be the trendiest of all fashion in the entire world. Hermes offers a line of fashion Hermes Handbags that cater to the fashion conscious high class women of today. However, the prices of these bags are sky high and cannot be afforded by ordinary people.

Purchasing original Hermes from Replica Hermes Handbags has so much difference. Here are some of the distinctions between the two:

1.Price - Original Hermes bags are expensive. Buying one of these bags is as expensive as your one semester tuition fee in college and universities. It may range from $ 6,000O to $10,000 US Dollars.

2. Quality - Original Hermes has a reputation to have a great quality. Their leather products is said to be the toughest. The famous Hermes Kelly Bag and Birkin Bags are made under strict supervision and quality control. On the other hand, replica Hermes handbags provide the same quality as much as possible. They are usually made of monogram canvas with real oxidizing leather handles and trim. Some of these replica handbags have the look and feel of the original Hermes.

3. Availability - It takes one year for a Hermes Kelly bag to be delivered and six years for a Birkin bag. The intricate and selection of leather is what makes the waiting period longer.

The History Of Hermes


T he French high fashion house Hermes specializes in a variety of products,including ready-to-wear clothing, leather goods and accessories and perfumes. The Hermes Fashion House was established in Paris as a harness making shop in 1837 by Thierry Hermes (1801-1878).The line was expanded during the late 1879 by his son and successor, Charles-Emile Hermes to include the manufacture of saddles.

During this period a new retail location was opened near the Palais de l Elysee. Following Charles-Emile’s retirement,his sons Adolphe and Emile-Maurice assumed leadership of the company. They chose to rename it to Hermes Freres. By this time they were already selling saddles to customers as far abroad as Russia and Asia. Emile-Maurice became the first man to introduce the zipper in France, and obtained exclusive rights to its use in leather clothing and accessories.

In 1922 the company introduced its first handbags, and in 1924 they secured a foothold in the United States. 1929 saw the release of the first women fashion apparel collection in Paris. Hermes is known for the "Kelly Bag" which Grace Kelly made world famous in 1956. The bag, was actually manufactured much earlier in 1930.

In the 1930s they added the now famous Hermes scarf to their product line,and set up a dedicated scarf factory in 1937. More new products were released over the next few years, including silk ties in 1946 and perfume in 1949.

Emile-Maurice died in 1951,to be succeeded by Robert Dumas-Hermes. Dumas was related to the family by marriage only and thus incorporated the Hermes name into his own. Robert was responsible for the introduction of the Hermes Tie, the Beach towel and the Perfumes. Hermes ties are the most coveted in the world and command prices from $160.00 to nearly $300.00 each. Today Hermes sells in excess of one million ties annually, representing 10% of their annual sales.

The 1970s brought vast international expansion,with shops opening across the United States, Japan and Europe. Despite this the company started to falter and lagged behind its competitors. When Robert died in 1978 he was succeeded by his son Jean-Louis Dumas-Hermes. Jean-Louis is the definitive hands on Chairman.He travels the world extensively, bringing back ideas that are incorporated into every aspect of Hermes product development. During the 1990s, Hermes continued to expand their product line,venturing successfully into crystal and porcelain tableware.

By 2008 Hermes had 14 divisions providing a wide spectrum of products,including menswear, perfume, womens fashion, footwear and jewelry. The company has over 20 boutiques in the United States alone. Hermes continues to be a revered name in the fashion world due to the meticulous craftsmanship embodied in all their products and the prestige associated with them. Hermes sales are made up of 30% leather goods,15% clothes,12% scarves and 15% ties. Hermes clientele include such celebrities as Paris Hilton, Nicole Kid man, Julianne Moore, Elle Mac Pherson, Elizabeth Hurley and Madonna.
