Birkin 25

By darkseerdruh · Catalogued June 2026

Designed in 1984 after Hermès then-CEO Jean-Louis Dumas sketched a spacious rectangular holdall for actress and singer Jane Birkin during a commercial flight (commonly cited as 1983/1984; exact year has some variance across sources, with Hermès and most retrospectives settling on 1984). Rectangular, structured silhouette with double rolled top handles, a single wide flap, and a signature front swing lock and clochette (key fob). Sourced as one of the most recognized status symbols in luxury fashion, with multi-year waitlists historically required at retail.

The Hermès Birkin Birkin 25 is a structured bag produced 2004–present. It measures 20 cm (7.9 in) high, 25 cm (9.8 in) wide, 13 cm (5.1 in) deep. Authentication: Dimensions 25 x 20 x 13 cm (W x H x D).
