An accessory like this designed by Chanel, Hermès and Louis Vuitton — each of whom created a beautiful version of this treasured item — is worth considering.

Finding the Right Handbags-purses-bags for You
An integral part of fashion, handbags and purses have been indispensable accessories ever since we began to carry around personal items. Level of craftsmanship, style and shape matters — from coin purses in ancient Greece to early 20th-century opera bags and onward, handbags have evolved considerably over the years to meet our needs and desires, whether or not you happen to be prioritizing functionality over a flashy exterior.
Once, a single “It” handbag ruled each fashion season. No more. Today, lovers of vintage handbags are savvier and have a wider range of shopping options. Nevertheless, classics created by the likes of Louis Vuitton, Dior and Balenciaga still rule.
“It is not a fashion bag — it is a statement bag,” says Mightychic's Debra Kent of Hermès's widely beloved accessories. “When you carry an iconic Hermès bag — Birkin, Kelly, Constance — no one knows how long you have been into this culture or if you are a newbie. Your status is validated immediately.”
First released in 1997, Fendi's Baguette rose to fame along with Carrie Bradshaw, the Sex and the City character portrayed by Sarah Jessica Parker. Recently, the design has seen such a resurgence in popularity that Fendi has reissued it.
They are part of design history, so owning a handbag has meaning. As New York–based fashion historian Sarah C. Byrd says, “You have made the choice to invest in this piece because you understand the value of it in the past and in the future to come.”
From a 1980s Chanel black leather quilted mini buckle bag to the rare Hermès Birkin 30cm Himalayan with diamond hardware to a range of 19th-century bags, find a rich variety of vintage and designer handbags and purses spanning numerous brands on 1stDibs — seasonal “It” designation no longer needed.
Questions About Rare Bag
- What makes a Chanel bag rare?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023What makes a Chanel bag rare is the craftsmanship and the demand. Because of the time it takes to produce each bag, Chanel makes only a limited number each season, and the popularity of the French luxury fashion house’s pieces means that the available inventory sells quickly. For its spectacular seasonal runway shows, Chanel designs special bags that are typically produced in smaller editions, making them all the more desirable and prompting long waiting lists, while many handbags that are sought after today are objects of pure fantasy conjured up by the late couturier Karl Lagerfeld, whose prolific tenure at the helm of Chanel lasted from 1983 to 2019. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Chanel bags.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Two of the most rare Louis Vuitton handbags include the limited edition Alma Panthere bag in monogram canvas and leather, which was a collaboration with Azzedine Alaia, and another collaboration bag, this time with Richard Prince on the iconic Speedy bag in Aquarelle monogram canvas. Shop a collection of authentic Louis Vuitton purses from some of the world’s top boutiques on 1stDibs.
