The black Swift leather palladium bag is priced at $42,500 on the Madison Avenue Couture website.

It comes with tonal stitching and has an open top for hassle-free utility. Along with all the details, the base features embossed details that come with a double-rolled handle. The interior is lined with black chevre and has one zip pocket with a Hermes-engraved pull and an open pocket on the opposite side.

The Shadow Birkin was first introduced in 2009 when Jean Paul Gaultier was Hermes’ creative director. The idea was to take advantage of Birkin's basic rectangle shape. It is a true trompe l’oeil (optical illusion).

Looking at the bag, one wonders if the straps are real or not. When viewed from a perpendicular angle (which needs to be shown), the optical illusion can be quite unsettling.

Savannah James has mastered the off-court fashion game

Savannah James is often spotted in basketball games. Recently, she shared a photo of herself donning a stunning black velvet dress by the prestigious brand Schiaparelli on Instagram.

Savannah was en route to the Schiaparelli Haute Couture week in Paris, elegantly sporting the off-shoulder bi-material tailored jacket from the renowned Italian luxury fashion house.

The jacket, in an all-black hue, is skillfully crafted from shimmering black velvet and tonal goat hair. The garment is also embellished with distinctive hammered golden brass eye buttons and is available for purchase at €6900/$7500 on the brand's official website.

Likewise, Savannah arrived in the fashion capital for the Paris Fashion Week in another beautifully crafted Chanel pullover. She was dressed in maroon knitted winterwear that carries a price tag of $7,682. The color and knit/wool garment beautifully coordinated with her all-black attire, while a black bag and black sunglasses rounded off the effortlessly chic look.

She captioned her post:

“Paris is always a good idea #PFW #Chanel”
