Did I ever tell you guys the story of my knock-off (ahem, replica) Birkin? This was back in the 90s. I was living in NYC, and my girlfriend got the hookup from Queens (Queens!). I paid the cash (and it was not a negligible amount either) and my friend pulled up in a cab (pre-Uber) and we literally did the hand-off through the window, well, Queens-style. It was actually an excellent replica, I would never do that today because the laws have changed and I’m not really in the habit of breaking them, and I have since acquired some actual legit Hermès items (don’t get excited, we’re talking wallets and belts here), but it was one of those iconic New York moments that will live on in my memory. I loved that bag too, I would stroll into Hermès with it and they literally did not bat an eye (although they didn’t look at it up close either). If you’re a twenty-something living in the city girl, let me tell you, it’s hard! That bag gave me a little boost of confidence, and it stoked my lifelong love for the brand.
I love the orange, the gold, the understated hardware, everything about Hermès makes my little heart sing, so in honor of their style I designed this inspiration board.
