As Anthology of Style’s biggest event, this isn’t one to miss. Showcasing a stunning selection of over 200 vintage and pre-owned luxury bags, Palooza is a labor of love curated by Kim and the AoS team. With such meticulous attention to detail, this event only happens four times a year—and the grand finale for 2024 is just around the corner. Expect to see iconic vintage Chanel bags in the most coveted colors, alongside timeless Hermès Kelly’s and Birkins – there’s plenty to unwrap!

We caught up with Kim Alpert, Founder and CEO of Anthology of Style ahead of the Bag-a-Palooza event to find out more.
What is Palooza and your vision?
Palooza – aka BAG-A-PALOOZA – could very well be named the “find your dream bag show.” I spend months curating this show with the goal that anyone who shows up will leave with a bag of their dreams.
What should we expect to see during the Bag-a-Palooza event?
You should expect to experience fun, glamour, a lot of jaw-dropping, and the chance to meet other lovely women who play the same competitive sport as you do: designer bags collecting.

What are your favorite pieces from each brand?
Hermès – This lovely tabac camel B30 in Togo. I want to dive into this warm, creamy color and set up residence.
Chanel – Impossible to choose. But, my top five are:
– the most luscious, deep burgundy Diana you can imagine
– the spool Minaudiere (one of Karl’s best)
– the vintage black ostrich leather small classic double flap
– the ruby red vintage classic small caviar double flap with 24k gold plating
– and this silk rope handbag from 2000 with a gold logo bar; my favorite detail is that the ropes align so they form a spine down the center of the bag like exotic leather.
When to tune in: The show will stream live on Instagram @anthology_of_style across three days.
Don’t forget to save the following dates:
Day 1: Friday, December 6th at 5 PM EST – Hermès Night
