It-Bags: the Hermès Kelly

Saturday, March 27th, 2010

The Hermes Kelly was founded in 1935, during the reign of the brothers Adolphe and Émile-Maurice Hermès (grandchildren of the founder of Maison Thierry), without the knowledge of becoming a true icon of the fashion system. The tote was created originally as a saddle bag for use during the hunt, which the brothers Sula Hermès decided to make a facelift: it reduces its size, turning it into a stylish handbag walk.
The bag gets an immediate success, but we will wait another twenty years before this Hermès bag being baptized with the name we all know. We are in 1956: Grace Kelly, one of the most popular actresses from the film Hollywod and recently became Princess of Monaco, is trying to hide the pregnancy of the Carolina hiding behind his belly Hermès handbag. The picture ends up on the cover of Life and from that moment, Hermès, nothing will be as before. That bag without a name, in fact, will always be the name of the woman who made it famous: Kelly.
From 1956 to today, she has become one of the most stylish bags and love the world and even today his style is a source of inspiration for the greatest fashion designers. One of the distinguishing features is undoubtedly its metal clasps that can be locked with a key, which is usually hidden in the insert in the skin attached to the handle, or with the lock.
To date, Kelly has been translated in 7 different sizes, ranging from mini to Kelly Kelly 32, the most common model and most loved by celebrities (first of all Victoria Beckham), which is declining at every season with different colors and materials and valuable as the ostrich, crocodile, lizard, veal and many others.
Kelly, in addition to being one of the most beautiful handbags in the world, is undoubtedly one of the most expensive. Think it would serve well to make a two alligators and that the processing of each Hermes bag commits a warden for 18 hours! Precisely for this, you will never find an original Kelly whose price is below 3,000 euros. Above all, you will find Kelly with much difficulty today because waiting lists are really miles!
