I’d say Chanel was number one. Chanel seems to be incredibly hot right now. We’re getting the best prices ever for Chanel. She revolutionized the handbag in the ’50s with the 2.55 bag,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which takes its name from the month and year it was introduced.
Chanel's black-fabric quilted purses from the 1960s had goldtone straps,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a back pocket,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], double flaps,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and a crimson CC-logo lining.
What set Chanel’s handbag apart was its shoulder strap. Every other bag prior to that only had a handle. Chanel’s had that long chain bag—the classic Chanel bag that you see pretty much everywhere. The strap was adjustable so you could carry it like a handbag or lengthen it to put over your shoulder. Of course,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Chanel also revolutionized women’s clothing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], too,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], because she introduced women to suits.
Another innovative designer was Hermès. They started off as a saddlery company,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], producing a lot of equestrian equipment and trunks,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], but then Hermès pretty much revolutionized the handbag industry in the latter half of the 20th century. The Kelly bag that Grace Kelly wore,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], which she used to try to cover up her baby bump,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is an iconic bag to this day.
Hermès also brought out the Birkin bag,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], for Jane Birkin,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and the Constance bag that Jackie Onassis often carried. Until recently,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Hermès was just an accessories company but they’ve started producing clothing,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], although they’re not known as a couture house.
Some of the older Gucci bags are pretty sought after if they are in really good condition. The Gucci bag is also associated with Jackie and is even known as the Jackie bag because she wore it all the time. Gucci began making [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] in the ’60s. In addition to the Jackie bag,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], they were known for their bamboo handles—they did it once and it stuck. You see bamboo handles on Gucci bags to this day.
