What is the oldest Hermès bag?
1 Answer
The oldest Hermès bag is the Haut à Courroies or HAC. It debuted in 1900 and has a trapezoidal shape. Originally, the purpose of this first handbag was to carry personal belongings while riding a horse. As a result, the HAC’s design allowed it to easily attach to saddles.
