Question:
What do you recommend as a first Hermes bag? What style and what color?
Dear First Time Hermès Bag Buyer:
Fortunately, Hermès has many, many bags in various price points, styles, leather, and colors to choose from as your first bag. We recommend educating yourself about all the different bags offered by Hermès from the lowest price and smallest size to the highest price and largest size.
We have many, many articles which detail almost all the bags Hermès offers. Be sure to read them all for valuable information. And visit your local Hermès boutique to ask your SA questions about the bags. Your SA is an expert on all Hermès products and they enjoy sharing their knowledge with their clients.
- When choosing a first bag, it is prudent to consider your lifestyle: are you a working professional, stay at home mom, working mom, fashionista, socialite, young professional, raising a family, single or connected?
- Next, consider your budget. Hermès has beautiful bags starting just under $2,000 and they go up from there. It is best to start with a bag well within your budget such as the mini Evelyne TPM, the Garden Party, Herbag, or the Picotin.
- Next, when deciding on a color for your first bag, consider your wardrobe, lifestyle, climate, and favorite color. Do you prefer a neutral color such as Noir (black), or Gold (tan) or Etain or Etoupe (gray) for your first bag? Or are you looking for a pop of color to contrast your mostly neutral color wardrobe? Hermès is known for its beautiful colors and any shade on the color wheel can be found at Hermès. Some people only buy neutral colored bags so the bag remains timeless. Others prefer a pop of color such as pink, red, blue or green. The choice is yours and the possibilities are endless.
- The size of the bag that is right for you depends on how much you carry on a daily basis. Most styles of Hermès bags come in mini, medium and large such as the Evelyne bag, the Lindy and the Garden Party bags. Other styles come in 2 sizes such as the Picotin, Roulis, and Constance, There are many sizes and styles to choose.
- The styles to consider are the Evelyne, Picotin, Lindy, Garden Party, Herbag, 24/24 bag, Bolide, the newly released Geta bag, the Halzan, and the Roulis,
