The Kelly bag silhouette is a flagship product of the French brand and boasts a rich history dating as far back as 1892 when they were made for holding saddles. Known then as the Haut a courroies because of their high handles, they became popular when they were designed in 1923 by Emile-Maurice Hermes and Ettore Bugatti for Julie Hermes.
The bags became known as the Hermes Kelly when Grace Kelly used them to hide her pregnancy from the Paparazzi.
