Description

HERMÈS. Kelly 28 Retourne bag. Fuchsia pink leather with silver hardware. It has a trapezoidal structure, slightly wider at the base, and a straight flap fastened with a silver palladium hardware strap. Short top handle. Comes with box, shoulder strap, dust bag (for the bag, not for the shoulder strap), box and Entrupy certificate. Padlock not included. Good overall condition. Normal visible signs of use. Corners and lower right side handle. See photos. Measurements: 22 x 28 x 10 cm. The Retourne version of the coveted Kelly bag, which literally means "inverted", is distinguished by its soft silhouette, being more flexible than other models such as the Kelly Sellier. It has a detachable shoulder strap that allows hands-free carrying, an aspect that makes it very practical and popular. Designed in 1935, this Hermès model ended up being called Kelly when Grace Kelly appeared wearing it in 1956 in a photograph published in "Life" magazine, in which she used the bag to hide her pregnancy. This model is, along with the Birkin, one of the most coveted of the firm, authentic icon and flag of handmade couture. It takes about eighteen hours to make, and is made by a single person, from start to finish.
