Ever wonder why that Birkin Bag is so damn expensive and the waiting time for one bag is 5 YEARs? Well, according to Ms Pascale Mussard (Co-Artistic Director of Hermes), an Hermes bag is not expensive as it is couture and it costs time to construct every bag and people must acknowledge that time is important. Each bag are made by hand by a single person to ensure quality & personalise of the craftmen. It takes 18 hrs to make an average size Birkin or Kelly and larger size can goes up to 30 hrs per bag. Each craftmen produces an average 5 bags a week and they supply to all 250 Hermes stores around the globe. No wonder the waiting period is 5 years!! So, calling all the readers who owned a Birkin or a Kelly, care to share a picture or two with us?
