Part of the appeal of the Fendi Baguette lies with its great simplicity. The short shoulder strap was a unique and revolutionary design at the time the Fendi Baguette was brought to market, and the name is so appropriate to the way the Fendi handbag is carried.

Louis Vuitton is the world-famous subsidiary of LVMH, the first group of companies that specialized in high-end, luxury products. In 1998, the trade name diversified into the ready-to-wear clothes and shoes sectors, with resounding success.

The World-Renowned Monogram Canvas Collection

The famous Monogram Canvas collection of Louis Vuitton handbags was popularized by celebrities and has a huge cult following among consumers. These loyal customers are proud to display the Louis Vuitton logo on their handbags and purses, which they fondly call "Louis." Louis Vuitton handbags now enjoy the status of top brand alongside other such signature labels as Prada, Gucci and Hermes.

It is not surprising that product counterfeiting has become a problem given how popular of Louis Vuitton handbags have become. The brand's trademark Monogram Canvas handbags have been one of the main targets of such fakery. Bogus manufacturing has become so prevalent that as much as 99% of Louis Vuitton handbags in the market today are imitations. In 2004, 18% of accessories seized in the European Union were unauthorized Louis Vuitton handbag copies.

Eye-catching is one description that fits all models of Louis Vuitton handbags. Both the outside and inside of these signature bags are visually delightful. However, they are priced just as handsomely. You may have to dig deep into your pocket to possess an authentic Louis Vuitton handbag, which partly explains why cheap imitations abound.

150 Years of High Quality Manufacturing
Louis Vuitton handbags have been around for over 150 years, adorning their bearers, as well as carrying personal belongings for them. Today, hundreds of stores sell Louis Vuitton handbags worldwide. These priceless accessories may also be ordered online. One must-check-out site is The Online Bag Lady at http://www.theonlinebaglady.com.

This years collection are no exception. Rebecca Minkoff sent her fall/winter 2012/2013 collection down the New York Fashion Week runway yesterday and in addition to showing off her new line to the fashion world, she surprised guests with a live performance by rapper Theophilus London during the show. As Theophilus London wowed the crowd with his performance, Rebecca Minkoff sent models down the runway in a mix of bright colors, animal prints, painterly prints, color blocking, texture and exotic skin handbags for the cool weather season.
Rebecca Minkoff handbags took color blocking to a new level for fall 2012. The New York designer mixed unexpected colors together along with animal prints and painterly prints to create a fresh take on the current color blocking trend. In order to keep from clashing, Rebecca Minkoff showed neutral colored handbags on the runway for fall 2012 which offered texture and a mix of exotic print fabrications.
In past seasons, Rebecca Minkoff has created simple handbags in solid colors or color blocked with the same type of leather for each color. For fall 2012, the New York designer mixed black leather with printed exotic skins in tonal colors as well as faux fur in order to create texture rather than a bold color statement in her handbag collection.
Rebecca Minkoff’s handbag collection included daytime clutches, clutches with detachable chain straps and classic top handle satchels. The neutral colored textures mixed together complimented Rebecca Minkoff’s apparel collection which was a bold mix of colors and patterns.

If clothes make the man, bags make the modern woman, according to one fashion expert. Tahira Yaqoob investigates why designer handbags are no longer the preserve of the very rich, and how a good choice can be an investment as well as an accessory.

Step into Bloomingdale's handbag department and the hubbub of Dubai Mall immediately fades away into a hushed awe at the treasures inside. Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Prada... each is displayed like the headline act on a stage with its own special platform and spotlight. It's a wonder they don't step up to take a bow.

Customers tiptoe around, fingering the leather longingly, no one daring to ask the price. Because let's face it, if you have to ask, you can't afford it.

What is it about designer handbags that makes us willing to spend a month's salary at the drop of a hat, just to get the latest arm candy?

I ask one of the immaculately dressed women responsible for keeping them pristine. She arches a purple tattooed eyebrow and speaks very slowly in a clipped Russian accent as if explaining it to a small child: "Because of the name, of course."
Can she suggest an ideal designer handbag to start my collection? I am willing to invest, I say.

Her gaze runs over my attire and takes in my flip-flops, and she promptly steers me in the direction of the "bargain" section with bags priced at the Dh2,000 mark.

Designer handbags may have moved out of the clutches of the elite into the mainstream, but clearly, not just anyone can be seen touting the merchandise.

Milton Pedraza, chief executive of the Luxury Institute in New York, explains: "It used to be: 'The shoes make the man'. These days, the handbag makes the woman."

One has only to think of the bags that make us quiver with reverence to see his point, named after women with such style and grace that it's hard to know which came first, the bag or the panache. Sometimes all it takes is a word for us to go weak at the knees. The Kelly. The Birkin. The Stam.

Customers are willing to invest large sums in a handbag or pair of shoes, Pedraza says on his blog, because they see the value of something that lasts.

The bag is no longer a fashion accessory but an investment and a collectable.
"It is like the lust in a relationship," sighs Reema Al Khomeiri, the Dubai-based founder of ToujoursChic.ae, which rents and sells secondhand designer handbags. "Mostly it fizzles out after a while and you move on to the next one."

Her love affair with bags started when she was 15 and blew an entire year's allowance on a Louis Vuitton. Since then, she has run up debts amounting to the cost of a small luxury apartment with her collection of up to 80 bags at a time.

ToujoursChic put a stop to her habit and allowed her to recycle her own and customers' unwanted bags, delivered to homes and offices in discreet plain paper packaging so no one need know they are not new. The website now has 2,000 subscribers in the UAE and 5,000 followers on Facebook.

"A bag is an extension of a woman's personality," Al Khomeiri says. "You carry your entire life in your bag - your secrets, your necessities and your comfort. You are carrying your self."

She says brands are responsible for "the democratization of luxury".
"A decade ago, luxury was only accessible to the rich and not the middle classes," she says. "They introduced more products and marketed to the middle classes."

A recent study by the Luxury Institute backs her theory. The New York-based research and ratings organization found that the designer label Coach had consistently outperformed its competitors for the past five years, not because its products were superior but because it had the highest brand recognition. One in four of the affluent women surveyed in the US had bought a Coach handbag in the past year and another 25 per cent said they planned to buy one, compared to the next highest-ranking brand, which registered only five per cent of women. The women were more likely to recommend Coach handbags to their friends after rating its customer service highly.

That, says Al Khomeiri, is a world away from the luxury market of a decade ago, which marketed its products firmly at the elite and turned its nose up at the mainstream.

"Luxury is much more accessible," she says. "Here in the Middle East we are under tremendous social pressure to be part of the herd. You cannot ignore what is happening around you. It is about showing off luxury and saying: 'Look at me carrying this bag, I can afford it.' Most of the time, though, we can't and it is bought on the credit card or on loan."

The roots of the handbag are thought to go back to ancient Egyptian times, when men as well as woman wore pouches around their waists.

Early modern Europeans wore purses made of leather or fabric to carry coins. In the 17th and 18th centuries, women wore separate fabric pockets, hidden under their petticoats, to carry their essentials. By the 19th century, they had evolved into more visible reticules, or purses made of silk or velvet with wrist straps, which were nicknamed indispensables.

The modern handbag is thought to have been invented when the British confectioner Samuel Parkinson undertook a lengthy train journey in 1841 during the Industrial Revolution and ordered a travel bag for his wife. His bag maker, HJ Cave, came up with a tote but they were initially unpopular, with critics complaining they would "break the backs of ladies".

It was not until the last century that handbags rose in popularity. The Kelly bag, which Grace Kelly was famously photographed using to shield her baby bump in 1956, had actually been around since the 1930s and was originally called the sac à dépêches. Hermès, rather sensibly, renamed it. The Hermes Birkin followed in the 1980s and since then, a many celebrities and high-profile figures have inspired bags, some with greater longevity than others.

Meanwhile, Al Khomeiri has offloaded her vast collection and now limits her spending to two bags a year.
"At the end of the day, you are going to get bored of your bag and this dream that the brand has put in your head and heart is going to fade," she says.

10 bags to die for
HERMÈS BIRKIN Named after the British actress Jane Birkin. There are waiting lists of up to two years for the bags costing Dh60,000-plus

CHANEL 2.55 A quilted classic created in 1955 because Coco wanted a shoulder bag that would allow her to keep her hands free. The padded style Chanel handbag was inspired by the coats of jockeys.

CHLOE PADDINGTON Designed in 2005, it created a boho-chic trend embodied by the likes of Kate Moss and Sienna Miller.

MARC JACOBS STAM Named after the designer's friend, the supermodel Jessica Stam, it is popular among Hollywood starlets.

YVES SAINT LAURENT MUSE An oversized tote in embossed leather, it is beloved by the likes of Katie Homes, Lindsay Lohan and Jessica Alba.

LOUIS VUITTON MONOGRM SPEEDY 30 Ironically the most copied bag in the world was created to preserve the authenticity of the logo.

BALENCIAGA LARIAT When the Gucci Group bought Balenciaga, the designer Nicholas Ghesquière came up with the motorbike-inspired bag in distressed leather for a biker chic look.

FENDI BAGUETTE An early "It" bag in the 1990s, it came in lizard, crocodile and mink skins in different colours to add va-va-voom to any outfit.

MULBERRY BAYSWATER It's sensible, it's a classic and even Mulberry calls it an "all-rounder", which could explain why the company decided to bring out a shocking pink version.

DIOR SADDLE It features horsey embellishments such as buckles and rivets and comes in python and alligator. Very Jilly Cooper.

Clearly not everyone in America is still feeling the strain of the recession. Early this week someone very, very wealthy bought a Hermes Birkin handbag for over $200,000 at an auction in Dallas, breaking the world record for the highest amount of money ever bid on a purse.

While the person who bought the handbag chose to remain anonymous, the bag itself is known all over the world. The pricey purse was an Hermes Birkin, easily one of the most iconic and expensive handbags ever made. Women’s Wear Daily reports the record-breaking model was made from shiny deep red crocodile skin and accented with 18K white gold and diamond hardware, and sold for exactly $203,150. Who needs a nice, solid, single family home when you’ve got style like that?
Hermes made the first Birkin bag for actress Jane Birkin in 1984, and since then it’s become an almost legendary piece of fashion history. Until April 2010, the bags were produced in such limited quantities that women who wanted them had to sign up for a wait list — and some of them waited for as long as six years before they were invited to make an actual purchase. The bags come in four sizes, all of which are lined with goatskin, and prices can vary wildly depending on the materials used on the exterior. But chances are, even the plainest of Birkins won’t sell for less than $8,000 to $10,000.
But even though the Hermes handbags are expensive to begin with, this one took the cake. Even the auctioneers were surprised that the bag went for that much, saying “this was certainly an exceptional price, exceeding our highest expectations at every corner.”
If by “highest expectations” they meant “the boundaries of common sense and restraint,” then they’re absolutely right.

You too can own a Hermes Birkin handbag and not have to spend $203,000. View the Hermes Birkin handbags below.
