Hermès is a French high fashion house popular for its lofty leather products. The brand is prestigiously known due to their degree of craftsmanship, reputation, and price.Hermès serves a status symbol. One of their most popular products is their bags in which celebrities and wealthy people go gaga for.
Interesting Facts: 1. Hermès leathers include those of alligator from Florida, buffalo from Pakistan, crocodile from Australia, shark from Thailand, lizard from Malaysia, and oxen, deer, calf, goat, and ostrich from all over the world.
2. Hermès does not use assembly lines; only one craftsman may work on one handbag at a time, hand-stitching each individual piece. Due to the labour-intensive nature of Hermès production methods and the use of rare materials (sometimes including exotic skins as well as precious metals), one bag can take 18 to 24 hours to create.
3. The leathers are professionally treated, dyed in an extensive range of colors, and handcrafted into bags of all sizes, small leather goods, and additional accessories.
4. When Hermès leather goods require repair, owners are encouraged to bring the item back to any Hermès store where it can be shipped to the factory in Paris for repair or reconditioning. You may find a code on the bag which corresponds to the craftsman who made the bag. The same craftsman may repair it.
5. The “Kelly Bag” is named after Grace Kelly for her many appearances with it. Jacqueline Bouvier Onassis, on the other hand, loves the Constance shoulder bag (with a double strap and large H clasp) and the Trim shoulder bag.
6. Birkin is named after the actress Jane Birkin, who co-designed the bag with company president Jean-Louis Dumas after complaining that her Kelly bag was not practical for everyday use.
7. The wait for a special order Birkin can be up to six years, based on the type of leather or skin requested. The price of the smallest Birkin reaches into five and six figures for larger sizes, different leathers, and special orders (which can include, but are not limited to, bi- and tri-color orders). In popular culture, the Birkin bag has been featured in television shows such as Gilmore Girls, Sex and the City, Will & Grace, Gossip Girl and Girlfriends, as well as on the arms of well-heeled celebrities like Victoria Bekham, Coleen Rooney, Alex Curran, Kate Moss, Martha Stewart, Jada Pinkett Smith, and Oprah Winfrey; and the subject of a tell-all memoir, Bringing Home the Birkin (published by HarperCollins, 2008) by Michael Tonello.
Victoria Beckham, known as an international style icon, reportedly owns more than a hundred Hermès Birkin bags. A lot of her photographs show that she regularly carries luxurious versions in pink ostrich skin and glossy black crocodile, worth up to £42,000 each, as well as the rare 'Silver Himalayan' style, which, at £80,000, comes complete with three-carat diamond. Several negative reactions were noted with regards to her extravagant collection.
