The Herms Birkin is among the most famous bags in the world. First created in 1983 after Jean-Louis Dumas met Jane Birkin on a flight from Paris to London. In the short flight, Birkin explained that she needed a bag which was spacious enough for everything she needed to carry, with plenty of pockets as well. He sketched the first bag there and then, and the rest is history. Thirty-four years later, this bag has been created in a huge variety of styles and materials.
