Hermès Style & Size
The Birkin 35 is the original and most classic size of the iconic Birkin bag - celebrated for its blend of luxury, function, and timeless design. Introduced in the 1980s for actress and style icon Jane Birkin, the 35cm version was created to be roomy enough for everyday essentials, making it the ultimate chic carryall for modern life. For practical work or travel bag, it will carry a laptop and almost everything else although it gets heavy when full and is too large for an evening bag. For those who are able to use it casually, it makes a brilliant gym bag or baby bag.
Hermès Construction
A softer construction style where the seams are turned inward, Retourné creates a more relaxed and rounded silhouette. The edges are smooth, and the overall look is understated and supple, often associated with a more casual feel.
Hermès Material
The high-gloss finish of Shiny Alligator is achieved by buffing the skin with a stone. This traditional technique compresses the surface scales and produces a natural, mirror-like sheen which can help disguise small imperfections. The central scales are rectangular, gradually tapering to smaller, rounder ones toward the edges, creating a balanced and symmetrical pattern. Alligator is signified by a small square ☐ next to the Hermes name on the bag.
Hermès Colour
Poussière is a soft, muted shade whose name translates to “dust” in French - a poetic reference to its subtle, earthy elegance. With a delicate blend of taupe, beige, and grey undertones, it is a beautifully nuanced neutral.
Hardware
Hermès Palladium hardware is made of solid brass, giving weight and durability, and then plated in precious metal. Palladium belongs to the platinum group of metals and has a brighter and whiter look than silver. More precious than gold, palladium is hard wearing and scratch-resistant.
