Most extravagant handbags

Handbag, for women, not just container storage of goods, but a status symbol. Hermes Birkin and Kelly from or Diamond Forever from Chanel are some of the most extravagant handbags in the fashion world. As well as shoes, handbags become a fashion statement that can not be ruled out. The reason that's what makes Marc Jacobs is so serious use accessory lines for the three labels are handled, Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs and Marc by Marc Jacobs.

Not only is Jacobs, Karl Lagerfeld of Chanel and Frida Giannini of Gucci is also not left behind "polish" a collection of accessories, including handbags and shoes, which are always seen protruding above the runway. "The market wanted the bag and shoes that give statements and the designers meet that need," says fashion editor Westin Pauline Thomas, who said in this era, handbags are the wheels of the player's coffers and the fashion house fashion labels, in addition to perfume.

A number of the world's top fashion labels like Hermes, Christian Dior, Prada, Chanel, Fendi, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton, vying to bring "the it bag", competes with fashion label that was run in lane accessories and leather products like Bottega Veneta , Loewe, Kate Spade, Jimmy Choo, and Anya Hindmarch. Hermes Kelly and Birkin had, two iconic handbag with a long list of reservations. Marc Jacobs is always a success with young stylish handbag collection which sold each season. While Bottega Vendeta never fails to sell products patterned woven leather that became his trademark.

But, of course, talking bag branded means talking about money in large quantities. If Jimmy Choo sold his collection with an average of USD300, it could sell Hermes Birkin with USD6.000 price for the smallest size and can reach prices of tens of thousands of dollars, depending on the size and material.

"Meanwhile, for the Birkin and Kelly, Danziger says it is related to a status symbol.

"For many women, the Hermes Birkin and Kelly synonymous with luxury and have it automatically with their social status, too elevated," he explained. As well as luxury cars, Birkin and Kelly also have a "grade" apart, depending on materials used. If Birkin "regular" priced at USD6.000, the Birkin "special" made from crocodile leather and decorated with diamonds worth 10 carats can reach the number USD120.000 and only produced by the two in the world.

Diamonds are not only decorated the Hermes bags, Chanel also. Collection Chanel Diamond Forever, released in 2007 included in the list of the most extravagant handbags Forbes. As well as the Crocodile Birkin, Chanel Diamond Forever priced USD260.000 was made of alligator skin with a distinctive logo of Chanel from 18 carat white gold decorated with diamonds totaling 334 carats 3:56.
