The New Birkin

[MJCouture]

I think the shortness actually makes this one kind of cute. It is a little more casual, and more modern than its classic counterpart. DELIC.

I like it... the very east/west shape. Nice!

i actually like this, too, but i think that i speak for many when i say that i'd like most anything that gaultier created with hermes...it just seems like such a good mix.

Hmmm....kinda cute, but the shape reminds me of a bag being squashed

 

[metal-on-metal]

I love that bag. So cool. Finally a Birkin we can carry over our shoulders!

 

[BagGal]

very similar... don't like either. Doesn't look like they put much thought into it other than just slicing the original bag in half.

 

[sugarjunkie]

I love it! The colour is gorgeous, too!

 

[PinUpGirl]

This one is beautiful too And I agree with Sugarjunkie, the color is soo nice

 

[chocsta]

I agree that it's much nicer than the "new Kelly"!

Does everyone think that it'll stay in style though, or is it just a passing fad..?

 

[Plumour]

even though I hate the new Kelly but I think I'm in love with the new Birkin

 

[Meg]

am also liking this 'new' Birkin. What are the prices on these does anybody know?

 

[ignitioned32]

This one okay for me. I still prefer the 'old' one, though.

 

[leyla m.]

great change... like the fact that u can carry it over shoulders now

but i still think it will take some time for it to become the NEW birkin to all those ladies who already own the original big shape

 

[Lena]

hmmm not bad, at least this one IS practical

 

[Acid]

i bet the fakes are being knocked out by the dozen as we speek

Same for me

I could never imagine myself with a Birkin before because I'm a teenager and it would just look large and old ladyish on me.. but this is much more compact while still being classic and... the Birkin! Is the price about the same as the regular Birkin, or a little less?

Probably less. Maybe 4000.00 for the new shorter model as shown?

or something.
