The story behind
A chance encounter on a flight between Paris and London in 1984 sparked the creation of the Birkin. Actress Jane Birkin complained to Jean-Louis Dumas, the Executive Chairman of Hermès, about her struggle to find a bag suitable for her needs as a young mother. Dumas immediately sketched a spacious, rectangular holdall with a burnished flap and saddle stitching, and the Birkin was born.

Gris mouette is a blue leaning grey. Seagull grey, apparently, and yes it does look like that.

Wore it to a black tie dinner in February. Matte alligator with palladium reads quieter than a shiny croc, exactly what I wanted. Downside is you're holding it all night and my hand got tired around dessert.

I bought this as my travel bag because the canvas means I don't cry when it gets dragged around. Zip closure helps on trains. The gold hardware has picked up a couple of tiny scratches from the zip pull rubbing but honestly who cares.
