With all the thinking I've been doing today about Hermes,
it seemed particularly serendipitous that I would come across this
utterly lovely photo of a very fashionable lady carrying the Hermes
Constance on photographer Tommy Ton's Jak & Jil blog.
While this design doesn't have the ardent and ravenous following
of the Birkin or Kelly, I think we can all agree that its lines
are elegant in a way that only Hermes can pull off. The curve of
the gussets, the sharp corners of the handle attachement –
it's all perfect. And what's even more perfect is that the Constance
costs thousands of dollars less than a Birkin. Maybe this is the
Hermes
bag for me.
It's easy to love a bag when it's caught by Tommy Ton's camera,
but this design is striking in real life as well. The shape and
structure are almost deceptively simple, which calls even more attention
to the bold H closure and spare, austere details. This is the kind
of handbag that you could use day in and day out for the rest of
your life and it will never, ever look dated. For more information,
