Handbags are the new shoes, must have the “it” fashion accessory that has all the ISTAS strong for the latest offer from popular designers. There is also a market that has more in common with the world dominated by men of classic cars, as you might think.
Only a few of you, the excitement of a few months have failed at Sainsbury’s sold 20,000 “I’m not a plastic bag” Anya reservoirs] Hind-March [In the fifth book in a few hours, even bags of raw cotton have more than [pounds] 150 on eBay. “Every girl has a handbag,” says specialist at Christie’s Turcich Monica, and every girl wants. Women now want the “it” bag and the other carries a person. It has always been popular and they are a part of our 20th Century Fashion sale for which we get most calls, but now they are particularly good because everybody wants the handbags, while there was not 10 years ago, the “it” as bags we have today, just the classics. ”
As cars get the best out of young designer handbags, which sell through dealers and auction houses are substantially below their original sales price, to lose value the second of the first acquisition took place. This is good news for collectors and investors handbag passionate, but there are some exceptions to the rule.
Last March, Christie’s sold a red crocodile Hermes Kelly bag for [pound] 10.800, it was only purchased in 1994 and was originally a custom product. The Kelly bag is the “Holy Grail” of classic handbag world according Turcich. “Chloe and other modern cases are more driven by what is popular today, but Hermes and Chanel quilted bag, these are classics that never go out of fashion and are always helpful.” Kelly bags can to [pound] 600 and can often be sold have been bought for [£ 1000] – Books [] 2000, which was not purchased for a bag that can be bad again in 1960.
There is no doubt that most handbags are purchased to be used, it is not an investment market in the same way as many other collectibles such as Paul Smith, Abercrombie & Fitch Dsquared etc., but here too there are parallels to the car market. With the purchase of a classic bag and searches for him, you’re probably losing money, rather a steady income with the extra return that you enjoy.
Hindmarch’s “I’m not a plastic bag” bags are unlikely to “classic” status, they are, after all, catch-all cotton produced in bulk, but also purses in their region, which could be done . Until now, Christie’s sold-n’t Hindmarch bags, but Turcich said she would not be surprised if it comes at an auction to start soon and they would not exclude them. Kylie Minogue has been photographed carrying a bag Chloe bracelet for several years, which sparked a fashion and today we sell the same at a public auction. ”
There is a blank has estimated that next auction, on the [pound] 800, [pounds] in 1000 with another Chloe handbag in the same batch. “I think Chloe has Added the” he “began the bag scene” Turcich: “I do not know how long it takes for them to become classics of their own, but I’m sure its worth keeping this in five or 10 years. do not appear to people’s attention to the fact that handbags are the new shoes in recent years, there is now an appreciation of the design that goes into it. It Some shoe designers, the artists, as well as handbags. ”
It is not always the big names, a few weeks ago Ms. Minogue’s studio Tony Durante, a handbag in Alfie’s dealerships in London, and I bought a raffia bag with a white head horse on the front of approximately [pounds] 200th colored raffia bags are now because it’s summer. Durante said that Kylie liked this particular bag because it was unusual. By purchasing from a dealer in vintage fashion, it just another celebrity to which a boost. Durante said that his clients are to this “unusual” factors research.
