"Released as a limited edition as part of the FW 2023 collection, these studded design bags were released solely in Mini Kelly and Constance in limited quantities. Box leather is one of the oldest and original crafted leathers for Hermès, such as the boy leather eponymous Kelly bag which Grace Kelly famously held over her belly to conceal her baby bump" - Melissa Afonso, Expert at Threads Styling. 
 
Why a Kelly Bag? 
The Timeless Appeal and Elegance of the Iconic Kelly Bag 
Originally named Sac-à-Depêche and designed by the prestigious French luxury brand Hermès in 1935, the iconic Kelly Bag later acquired its name from the esteemed American actress and Princess of Monaco, Grace Kelly. Grace Kelly's association with the bag, notably using it to conceal her pregnancy from the paparazzi, contributed to its allure and mystique. Since then, the Kelly bag has become synonymous with timeless style, impeccable craftsmanship, and unmatched elegance, making it one of the most coveted luxury handbags worldwide. 
 
Exclusivity and Rarity in the Hermes Market 
Hermès is well-known for its stringent buying regulations, which restrict the quantity of bags an individual can buy annually. By intentionally constraining production, the company creates prolonged waiting times of multiple years for prospective purchasers. As a result, the secondary market emerges as an attractive alternative for those seeking to avoid lengthy waiting lists. Even second-hand Kelly bags in heavily worn conditions command prices surpassing 10,000 euros, underscoring their remarkable rarity and popularity. 
 
Why Kelly Clouté? 
Iconic Design Legacy👜

Box leather is one of the oldest and original crafted leathers for <a href="https://www.sothebys.com/en/articles/a-guide-to-the-rarest-and-most-expensive-hermes-bags">Hermès,</a> such as the box leather eponymous Kelly bag which Grace Kelly famously held over her belly to conceal her baby bump.
