BAG CRUSH: HERMES KELLY


First produced in the 1930s when it was known as the Sac à dépêches, the Kelly was one of the first bags to be re-fashioned from the earlier trend for saddle bags to make it more suitable for travel by automobile and other 20th century modes of transport. Hermes was an early adopter to modern-day travel, and this is in part why its styles have enjoyed such widespread and long-lived success.


The name was changed to the ‘Kelly’ in 1956, after Grace Kelly, then Princess of Monaco was pictured carrying the bag, which she was using to shield her pregnant belly from the prying eyes of the Paparazzi. The photo appeared on the front cover of Life magazine, cementing its place in history and giving the Hermes brand a massive popularity boost.
The price of the Kelly bag starts $7000.




 Trust Victoria Beckham to have it in every possible color
