Hermes | Blue Jean Birkin Handbag
The creation of the Hermes Birkin came to light back in the early ’80′s when Jane Birkin was booked to sit next to the Hermes designer on a flight. Some time during the flight she (Jane Birkin) accidentally spilled the contents of her “too small” bag onto the Hermes designer . . . which gave the designer the idea to create a more ideal spacious bag for the everyday woman – Tada, we have the Hermes Birkin. The first Hermes Birkin was created in 1984 in Paris and later launched in America.
If you want to get your hands on a Hermes Birkin, then be prepared to wait. The waiting list is up to 2 years, unless you take a different route – eBay or CreateursDeluxe.
