SJP's Mega-Birkin

[brian]

would any of you have any idea as to what size her birkin in this photo is? it's huge!

 

[Spacemiu]

I don't know, but she is suposed to be very tiny, so it mighnt not be that big.

 

[helena]

i don't think it looks that big either

Birkins-schmirkins SJP's a mega-burk bag or no.

She's 5' 4" so that's about a 28" inseam. The bag is covering most of her calf so I'd guess it's nearly 14" high 30" long.

It's probaboly one of those birkin travel bags. I saw them once in Hermes and they are huge! There are also the kelly travel bag, which is also huge.

It looks like a 40cm Birkin to me.

It just looks like a regular birkin to me. It's just that it's really extended because the straps are out of their loops? make sense?

Exactly what I thought.

it is huge indeed. i had a customer one day with a birkin that size. its def NOT 40 cm.... GOD knows how big it is. it looks really ridiculous in real life though..

unless you use it as a nappy bag i would not go near one

Are you sure it's not a 40cm? Cause I have a 40 and it looks quite the same. But then again I'm really bad at guessing sizes

you know what? i think you are right now that i had a second look....
the one i saw REALLY looks like a suitcase so SJPs must be the 40cm

I'm also using her body to as a yardstick, and if you go front seam to seam it's about the distance of her shoulder to elbow? And it's in the foreground remember which enhances the largeness, possibly taken with a wide-angle lens?

In other words, big, but not extra-big. And wasn't the Birkin designed for Jane to use in lieu of a diaper bag + purse? Nice to see it's being used as intended here.

 

[MissP]

aren't birkings huge anyway? and as everyone else said, she's tiny so obviously it looks even bigger next to her.

 

[MJCouture]

I would guess that its a 40cm, I think it just looks larger because it is beyond over-stuffed.

The above deserves a round of

well, there is one with "just" 25 cm . you might use the 40-cm-bag as a diaper bag.

exactly my thoughts.
