"Sesame was introduced to Hermes in Autumn/Winter 2021 as an alternative to Gold and has been in high demand ever since. The versatility of the Kelly Danse and Danse Anate means that the bag can be worn 5 ways - backpack, shoulder, waist, crossbody or clutch." - Melissa Afonso, Expert at Threads Styling. 
 
Why a Kelly Bag? 
The Iconic Kelly Bag - Timeless Elegance and Allure 
The Kelly Bag, an iconic handbag designed by the prestigious French luxury brand Hermès in 1935, originally known as Sac-à-Depêche, was later named after the esteemed American actress and Princess of Monaco, Grace Kelly. Grace Kelly's association with the bag, using it to conceal her pregnancy from the paparazzi, added to its allure and mystique. Since then, the Kelly bag has become a symbol of timeless style, exquisite craftsmanship, and unparalleled elegance. It remains one of the most sought-after luxury handbags globally. 
 
Exclusivity and Rarity in the Hermes Market 
Hermès is renowned for its stringent purchasing policies, limiting the number of bags an individual can buy each year. Production deliberately remains limited, creating waiting periods of several years for prospective buyers. As a result, the secondary market becomes a preferred option for those seeking to avoid waiting lists. Even pre-owned Kelly bags in well-used condition command prices exceeding 10,000 euros, emphasizing the extraordinary scarcity and demand. 
 
Why a Kelly Danse Anate? 
Iconic Design Heritage 
The Kelly Danse Anate represents a revival of a timeless icon in the Hermes objets collection of 2023. Derived from the original Kelly Danse, conceptualized by Jean Paul Gauthier in 2008, discontinued in 2013, and reintroduced as the Kelly Danse II in <a href="https://www.sothebys.com/en/articles/a-guide-to-the-rarest-and-most-expensive-hermes-bags">2019</a>. 
 
Exclusive Limited Edition Appeal 
This particular edition is crafted as a limited release, adding to its allure and exclusivity. With meticulous attention to detail and quality craftsmanship, each piece embodies a sense of luxury and sophistication. 
 
Unique Features and Versatility 
Featuring Sesame swift leather with gold hardware, tonal stitching, and extended fringe detailing, the Kelly Danse Anate showcases a distinctive aesthetic. It offers versatility with its two straps and adjustable flat strap, allowing for crossbody, backpack, or belt use. 
 
Investment Potential and Rarity 
As a limited edition piece with a heritage linked to an iconic design, the Kelly Danse Anate presents investment potential. Its rarity and desirability among collectors and enthusiasts contribute to its value appreciation over time. 
 
Sought-After Collectible Status 
With its historical significance and limited availability, the Kelly Danse Anate has become a sought-after collectible item. Owning one adds not only to one's style statement but also to a valuable piece of fashion history.
