Description:

Inspiration for both the Hermès Kelly and Birkin bags can be traced back to 1982. They are both the development of a large bag named the Haut à courroies – known as such because of its high handle. The “HAC” bag was originally produced for cavalry soldiers to store their boots and saddles in. Still around but rarely seen the Hermès HAC bags have been referred to by one blogger as the “Unicorn of Hermès bags” as they are so rarely seen. In 1954, the costume designer for the film “How to Catch a Thief” starring Grace Kelly purchased Hermès accessories. The American actress who went on to become the Princess of Monaco loved the design of the bag and commissioned six to be made in different colours. Two years later in 1956, the bag she brought along shielded her from paparazzi while pregnant with her daughter. After featuring in various magazine shoots and paparazzi shots, the bag soon started to be referred to as the “The Kelly bag” however it was not officially renamed until 1977.
