The new The Brand Bible series is dedicated exclusively to the most iconic handbag models from the most important designers. Each bag is not only a fashion object, but also a symbol of style and status. With stunning photography and in-depth insights into the creative vision behind the designs, as well as anecdotes about the stars who made the bags famous, this illustrated book series is a must-have for any fashion enthusiast. Hardly any handbag is as coveted as the Birkin or the Kelly Bag from Hermès.
In addition to these icons, Hermès: Bags also includes numerous other models from the traditional brand.
