KELLY | ICONIC BAG

The legendary French luxury goods house began as a harness workshop in Paris in 1837. By the twenties, Hermès had the patent for the zipper in France, and introduced the first ladies’ bags with zip closures, and in 1937, the first Hermès silk scarves were born (today, a scarf is allegedly sold every twenty seconds). The Kelly bag debuted in 1956 after Grace Kelly used a large crocodile handbag to hide her pregnancy.
