Usually characterized by simplicity and sporting a classic and beloved silhouette, vintage and designer top-handle bags can easily find a place among your wardrobe staples. From the Haut à courroies — Hermès’s original top-handle bag, created in 1892 — to the smaller and timeless Sac à dépêches that inspired both iconic accessories the Kelly bag in the 1950s and the Birkin in the 1980s, the discerning shopper has had no shortage of options to choose from.
Small and mini designer top-handle bags, including vintage top-handle box bags and micro clutches, offer an alternate dynamic and usually feature sleek lines and modest features to perfectly complement your evening look. Styling with jeans and a comfortable sweater works, too — a classic top-handle bag or other type of handbag designed by the likes of Prada, Celine or other widely loved fashion label is an ideal accessory to pair with casual attire. For a personal touch or pop of color, add a key chain, a patterned scarf or a handbag chain.
On 1stDibs, you can find vintage top-handle bags from Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Gucci and more. The numerous styles of this cherished accessory that we have available also include the Louis Vuitton Monogram Vernis Alma GM handbag, Fendi Baguette purses and modern leather Longchamp handbags.
A 32cm, 28cm, or 35cm Kelly would be best for daytime wear, while a 25cm, 20cm Kelly, Kelly Pochette, or Kelly Cut would be best for the evening. The best size would also depend on the stature and build of the woman or man, the occasion, and his or her ensemble. A dark 32cm or 35cm Retourne Kelly in Clemence may be appropriate for a business meeting, while a bright or jewel-toned selliier Kelly 25cm or Kelly Pochette may be ideal for a dinner date.
Whether or not the Hermès Kelly bag is a good investment will depend upon a range of factors such as condition, rarity and more. Experts have reported that luxury handbags, including the Hermès Kelly, have made for good investments over the years.
A study of luxury investments in 2019 found that luxury handbags had the highest returns (the Hermès Birkin bag fared considerably well on the list). Owing in part to exclusiveness and popularity, most Hermès accessories are substantially more expensive and sought after now than when they debuted, and the Kelly, which was created by Robert Dumas and originally introduced as the Sac à dépêches in 1935, has an average value retention of 108%.
Determining the value of any collectible depends upon a variety of aspects. In the case of assessing the value of a Hermès Kelly bag, you should consider color, size, condition, the type of leather and purchase price.
At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Buyers should keep in mind that the value of any investment is subject to fluctuation, and any investment decisions should be made according to the guidance of a financial advisor. Find a range of Hermès Kelly bags on 1stDibs.
