Kelly Bag. The iconic Hermes Kelly Bag. While the Birkin seems to get the most glory, the Kelly bag has been around, and known, for much longer than that Birkin. This purse was designed in 1932 as a travelling bag (hence the lock and strap) and was originally called “sac à dépêches“ (bag for travel).
Balmain handbags are true works of art. The closer you look at Olivier Rousteing’s creations, the more impressive the craftsmanship becomes. The savoir-faire of the artisans from this iconic Parisian house is made evident in a multitude of small details: magnificent quilting, intricate weaving, pain Filters. New. Smooth leather B-Buzz 23 bag.
Hermes Kelly Sizes. The Hermes Kelly bag comes in several sizes, too. From smallest to largest, the Kelly sizes are 20, 25, 28, 32, 35, 40 and 50. There was once a micro mini Kelly 15, but that size was discontinued. The larger Kelly sizes, like the 40 and 50, are pretty rare sizes. The more popular Kelly sizes such are the Kelly 25 and the 28.
The strap is sufficiently long to wear the bag crossbody (just about!) but to me Hermes Kelly 32 seem marginally too large for this. The crossbody version might look better on a taller person because the bag will appear proportionally smaller but for an average 5,5”, a bag measuring 32cm x 24cm x 12cm appears too overwhelming.
Hermes Kelly Pochette. Image source: Instagram @miubb99. The Hermes Kelly Pochette is similar to the mini Kelly but is a handheld/clutch style bag that comes without a strap. It measures 22 x 12/5 x 7 centimeters. Based on its size and lack of a strap, this bag makes the perfect evening or formal event bag.
1. Gucci Jackie. Crafted from naturally tanned leather without the use of chemicals, the Jackie bag only gets more lived in and supple with time. The latest iteration of the style adds a practical, modern second shoulder strap to use as a crossbody. This beautiful bag can also be customized with your initials in gold.
