FOXLOVER Small Crossbody Bags for Women, PVC Faux Leather Ladies Monogram Shoulder Bag. Over that period, the Kelly 20 would be produced in every skin, color, and combination imaginable. Price and other details may vary based on product size and color. The bag was known then as a Haut a courroies because of its high. This is not a crossbody length unless you want your bag hanging in your armpit or in the middle of your chest (hey, different strokes). It measures approximately 38 3/8 from end to end (the leather part of the strap without the metal clasps is about 37 3/8). Hermes produced this original group of mini-Kellys for over 25 years, with the final examples leaving the atelier around 2006. Kelly bags are essentially based upon a bag originally made in 1892 for holding a saddle. The Mini Kelly comes with an adorable and useful strap.
The classic style was adapted into four versions: a charming top-handle, built in both Sellier and Retourne construction, which featured an exaggerated handle that fit over the wrist like a bracelet, and Sellier versions with long leather straps in place of the handles that were either shoulder or cross-body length.
These petite versions of the already iconic Kelly bag were darling, and the height of ladylike sophistication at the time, as they are now. While 25cm Kelly bags have surfaced dating back to the mid 1960’s, the truly mini 20cm Kelly started coming out of the Hermes atelier in 1980.
The design elements of the iconic Hermes Kelly bag have been around for over a hundred years, and starting in the middle of the twentieth century, these elements were rendered together in smaller and smaller handbags. The Herms Kelly bag can be traced back to 1852, but didnt gain popularity until 1955 when Grace Kelly used it to hide her pregnancy while filming To Catch.
