You guys think you can BUY a birkin? they fucking interview you to check if yo you are eligible to graciously be allowed to even own one 😭😭😭 they do not want anyone having these fuck ass bags
It’s funny because birkin’s were made to be abused it’s literally designed to fit as many items you can in it look at Jane Birkin bag (she’s the muse the bag was made for her) it looks like it’s been through hell back and forth
Leather goods designer here: I always found it very peculiar the Birkin was such a coveted handbag, considering everyone I've seen wore it like how it is shown in the video. As someone who designs handbags, that's a tell tale sign of poor design, if it's impractical to close/open while maintaining sufficient security. The ideal bag should be convenient for the user to enter and close, but safe enough so a thief does not have easy access to it: think magnetic snaps, zippers, and turn locks are of great practical design, etc. I find it a bit silly to want a bag only to wear it the opposite the way it was intended. But of course, to each their own. I just think the overall design is very poorly thought out 😅
I agree. The bag isn’t even attractive for all the hype it gets. It’s just adorned over because a celebrity was seen with it and it comes across as “exclusive.” It’s ugly.
Stand clear incase the thunderbolt misses me as I say, Louis Vuitton are hideous to my mind also. But some rave over them. There's no accounting for taste.
But these bags are super heavy empty, if you stuff them too much it becomes too heavy and unpractical to carry with the small handles. I don’t even know why I’m discussing this because this bag is realistically so ugly
Actually most celebrities get their assistant to pay for their meals, so for them it is very convenient since they won't be opening it for literally anything
The funniest thing is that Jane Birkin would treat hers like a bucket 😂 filled to the brim almost bursting, battered and bruised, well loved. I think that is the most elegant way to wear it
When wearing zipper pants, fiddling with the top button to then fumble with the zipper when using the potty.... for me, wearing the top button open and zipper down all the time is much more convenient !
it’s wild that majority of people with a bag like this don’t want to scratch it, while the lady the bag was named after, she wore her bag like any other normal bag
Right! She wore it so comfortably and made it unique and just used it like anyone would! And if they’re really trying to show how rich they are why don’t they trash the bag like that and get another 😂
Or maybe shes being careful because she wants her bag to look good for a long period of time? By your logic you’re implying people shouldn’t ever buy nice things because it’s inevitable for something to never get dirty or scratched. Idk about you but most people dont find it stylish to wear run down things.
Jane was someone who understood they were simple bags, not museum pieces. They also didn't cost much at all. Jane Birkin made them cool, hence their name and so Hermès decided to sell them like they were rare diamonds. It's stupid, and a waste of money, the value of materials and manufacturing costs simply don't add up. So they're selling status. It's a cult. A silly materialistic one at that. You know someone is old money when they give no effs about the use of the bag, they let it get scuffed and used up. That said I do not judge collectors of the bags because they are sound investment pieces that will appreciate, safer than a lot of other investments. And if they enjoy them now and then more power to them.
I don't like them because the handles are too short. I like the story tho of how they came to be; Jane was getting on a plane with all her travel kit stuffed into straw bags, trying to stuff them into the upper compartment, everything emptied onto the floor, making her grab them. The head of Hermès design was sitting next to her and he had the bright idea to make the bag, which on first sight is basically a Kelly bag, with a double handle.
If you need instructions on how to wear a bag… that’s not the bag for you 😂 I’m sorry, but for the price, this should be THE MOST CONVENIENT BAG on the planet.

@@BrasileiraleI don’t think she was necessarily correcting you. It is difficult to interpret subtleties with tone, whether English is your third or even first language. Also, sometimes people make typos. Hope this helps!

leticialuyla2867 Right? For that price, the thing should open itself, take out what you want, put on your makeup, dial your phone for you then close itself! 😂
So, if I were a thief, you would be my first target. The bag screams money, and that person carrying it isn't too bright. You've made it even easier for a thief to reach in and take your stuff. Bravo!
Have you ever seen the woman who created/designed these bags? And how she wears/uses them? She ABSOLUTELY DOESNT GIVE AF she uses them up, stuffs them full of stuff and always leaves it open. I honestly love it, she uses the bag the way she intended, to hold all of her things.

@tanner.leatherstein, a professional leather crafter recently did a video on the Birkin and Hermez. Don't be fooled. Hermez relies on power-over and abusive relationships with their gullible 'clients'. Their leather and workmanship is sub-par and they get away with it. Don't let them. There are much better made leather bags made with high quality leather for a fraction of the cost and the bags don't look like an old-lady bag. There are more and more videos on Hermez and what a scam it is. Educate yourself.
My wife has one and she never opens it when we’re out together I figured it was because she was so happy and focused on me, but I realize now it’s because they’re difficult and since I pay she has no reason too haha
Remarkably dumb! The ugliest bag but I guess a good investment..wait..u can skip ur mortgage or rent for 6mos and get one not to use from the Real Real.
English actress Jane Birkin did NOT design this bag. It's an old Hermes design renamed in her honor and she hated the bag that was gifted to her bcus she said it was way too heavy for practical everyday use.
And yet she used it every single day for years and loved it to DEATH and when the first wore out she got another which she also used every day until that one wore out. Why would she continue to use and love it? She helped re-design an existing Hermes bag on a flight with one of the designers because she was using a basket as a bag at the time. She loved the bag back then. She hates them now because of the culture surrounding them and how much the price has gone up/ been inflated by the BS & Hype of designer bag culture and celebrity worship culture. When it was just a fairly expensive bag she helped tweak she loved it, now she despises this bag the same way she despises all bags that are part of this niche, and deeply loathes that “her” bag is the pinnacle of it and the story about it has been exaggerated over the years into saying she fully designed it when she just helped tweak an existing design to suit her needs. She wore hers like a regular bag and treated it rough, Lindsay Lohan and Paris Hilton and a few other gals in the 2000’s wore it the same way as Jane ; always open and over flowing with stickers/patches/badges on it and scarves tied to the handle etc. then at some point wealth elites began to collect and invest in designer bags and now the bag is at the insane absurd ridiculous disgusting status it is today which involves waiting lists and invites and all sorts of pomp and nonsense that Jane detests and is disgusted by. So yeah it’s a bit more complicated than just saying she hates it and didn’t design it. You’re not wrong but you’re also not correct either: it’s a complex narrative. When I was younger I wanted a Birkin as a fan of Jane, and back then they were still eye wateringly, save up for years and reward yourself for a huge achievement levels of expensive but still a realistic purchase for a normal person. Then suddenly they were no longer able to even be bought in store by someone like me and Internet celebrities I had never heard of were collecting them and paying house deposit level prices for them and that’s when I lost any interest in getting one. I’ve decided I’m going to save up for a really well made fake or a custom made piece from a leather artisan that is heavily inspired by a Birkin but different with my own personal flare to it. Anyways there is my info dump of the full more complicated bag history / situation and a random personal anecdote on the end! Have a lovely day
I love how she’s instructing us on how we should properly wear our $30,000 Birkin bags as if any of us could ever afford one. 😂 If I had that much money, I certainly wouldn’t spend it on a bag.
For real! Even if I had the money, I just could not spend the amount of a car on a hand bag. That I'm gonna scratch, carry diapers and kids stuff in it. Just wow
I looked up the prices on this brand bag and saw one used on eBay for $190,000😄and one for $100,000. I think it's ridiculous that people would spend this kind of money on a bag. Even $20,000 is nuts.
My favorite bag is the one I thrifted for $1 2yrs ago. It's just a simple water-resistant cloth and I could stuff my things and even groceries in it. Sooo lightweight! 😊
That's their money. They earned it. Most rich people I know actually helps the poor in other ways. Why don't you asks instead why are pets like dogs so pampered wherein there a lot of people in the world starving. I think it will be the same answer.
@@BiboyYobibNo person can physically work the hours to generate all of the profit required to be rich. Becoming rich requires exploiting other people's labour and natural resources, avoiding taxation and/or otherwise failing to redistribute wealth. It's repeatedly shown that people with lower incomes spend higher percentages of their disposable income in the general economy and on charity. Charity from the rich is often a form of tax avoidance or a way to exert influence and improve public image. Very few of the world's biggest philanthropists have ever lost billionaire status and none of them gained their wealth because their labour was actually worth billions. People who accumulate immense wealth simply cannot justify the exploitation that inherently removes wealth from circulation creating poverty. Wealthy people paying thousands extra to other wealthy people for added prestige in the context of mass deprivation deserve the same criticism whether it's bags, pets, jewellery, cars, houses... You can choke on the boot if you want to but don't act like we should all be eating leather when we could eat the rich.
@@perregrine No one is stopping you from making your own wealth. Quit trying to shame people with money just because you don't have the same amount. No one owes you anything...go earn your own wealth and find your own version of happiness.
I thought I was the only one that wear mines like that too, it’s convenient but that’s why I barely wear it especially because I don’t want ppl to be able to go in my bag
Omg... Thank goodness I saw this video! I was really struggling on how to properly wear my non existent birkin bag that I can't afford.

Not wearing one seams to be the eisiest choice.

I agree. The bag isn’t even attractive for all the hype it gets. It’s just adorned over because a celebrity was seen with it and it comes across as “exclusive.”
It’s ugly.
No bag is fake. It’s still a bag lol it’s a replica *gtdupe*
Most people buy fake bags because they like the authentic design but like the price of the fake *gtdupe*
They don’t care about that. They just care that ppl know they had the money to buy it. That’s literally the point of all expensive bags.
Am I alone in not even liking Birkins?
Its ugly lol
Its so ugly lol

No, theyre not that cute just exclusive so people want em
Its also made with animal skin (in crocodile farms). Nothing sexy about dangling a bloodbath everywhere you go.
The woman who literally created Birkin bags uses hers like a highschool beater backpack, it’s great.
EXACTLY thank you now that’s the real way to wear it
She does that because she doesn’t pay for hers lmao 😂😂
She died.
But these bags are super heavy empty, if you stuff them too much it becomes too heavy and unpractical to carry with the small handles. I don’t even know why I’m discussing this because this bag is realistically so ugly

My favorite bag is the one I thrifted for $1 2yrs ago. It's just a simple water-resistant cloth and I could stuff my things and even groceries in it. Sooo lightweight! 😊
Wowzers
HALLELUJAH ‼️
I ❤MY THRIFT STORE PURSES ALSO ‼️
I could fed how many hungry people with the price of that complicated bag.About 1,000 healthy meals 🤗
Imagine paying so much money and importance to a commodity, that it ends up owning you.
@@1694cgrnt that sounds like a true line from Fight Club.
So much money for a bag that’s so uncomfortable to wear. Not this life.
Btw it’s very ugly.
You cant wear a Birkin bag..
A BIRKIN WEARS YOU😌✨
Oh. My. God!!! THE STRUGGLE IS REAL! I’m so glad you got through this horrible Birken dilemma with your brilliant hack!
😳🤔🙄Just put everything in your reusable machine washable eco friendly grocery store bag. No worries whatsoever.💝
Life changing stuff how would the world go on without your wisdom
Monuments should be erected in her honor in every EU member states.
😂😂😂😂😂
This is a 1st world problem!🤣
I am 54 and never “worn” a bag I normally just carry them! 😂😂
When she said stylish I cringed. I feel sorry for the poor alligators who died to make this ugly purse.
I know nothing about Birkin, but I know alot about Walmart, Target, and Macy's bags. I am the queen of those. 😂😂
Realistically?
Realistically, it’s insane that anyone owns a bag that cost so much, when there are people in the world who are starving.
it's a really nice bag
but I'm living on Mac n cheese
it’s really not that deep
That's their money. They earned it. Most rich people I know actually helps the poor in other ways. Why don't you asks instead why are pets like dogs so pampered wherein there a lot of people in the world starving. I think it will be the same answer.
@@BiboyYobibNo person can physically work the hours to generate all of the profit required to be rich. Becoming rich requires exploiting other people's labour and natural resources, avoiding taxation and/or otherwise failing to redistribute wealth.
It's repeatedly shown that people with lower incomes spend higher percentages of their disposable income in the general economy and on charity. Charity from the rich is often a form of tax avoidance or a way to exert influence and improve public image. Very few of the world's biggest philanthropists have ever lost billionaire status and none of them gained their wealth because their labour was actually worth billions.
People who accumulate immense wealth simply cannot justify the exploitation that inherently removes wealth from circulation creating poverty. Wealthy people paying thousands extra to other wealthy people for added prestige in the context of mass deprivation deserve the same criticism whether it's bags, pets, jewellery, cars, houses...
You can choke on the boot if you want to but don't act like we should all be eating leather when we could eat the rich.
@@perregrine No one is stopping you from making your own wealth. Quit trying to shame people with money just because you don't have the same amount. No one owes you anything...go earn your own wealth and find your own version of happiness.
I find this hysterical . You are saying that women that are wealthy enough to waste money on a purse need instructions how to open and wear it ?
I'm going to make it a point to avoid that Birkin Bag crap for the rest of my life.
She’s showing how inconvenient it is to have one😂
Nice bag, I'm going to get the dhgate version. Don't judge me, folks.
I have the same exact birkin the same color and everything it’s fake but i do have the same problem sooo thanks
Good for you, that’s the best thing to do!
Forget the bag you can live without it. Carry an ordinary simple bag it does the job!
Useless comment, its her money so she can make herself some treats by buying a luxury bag. What is the point of having money if you dont spend it
No way ..how r people gonna know she has Money then
It looks like something a toddler would love to play with, for some reason
You’ve changed my life. Thank you so much thank you lol
Bags for me are tools and instruments made to make my life easier.... not to inconvenient me.😛
Imagine spending $70k on a bag that is completely impractical and inconvenient
Birkins are most fashionable, used, abused and distressed and over loaded. Check the history out
Birkins are the blue jeans of the purse world. Sine qua non of classic styling, but look best when authentically distressed and worn out.
@@polymathicaagreed. I remember mid 2000s when birkin copies hit the high street again. Honestly I remember thinking headache.
I don't wanna wear an expensive bag that i HAVE to worry about
I never see any people where they’re Birkins closed up like this unless they’re in storage
I don’t have a birkin, i will never have a birkin, but i watched the video cause for some reason it intetested me anyways haha thank you for the tip 😂
😂
My mom would lose her mind hearing this...she yells at me all the time for not closing my bag because someone might steal or stuff will spill out
I don't want a bag like this. It's overpriced & not easily usable
If I'm paying for _coffee_ I don't need a Birkin.
People worried about purse tutorials when they should be worried about arming themselves and prepping 😂😂😂
I agree... People's priorities are backwards.
The bag is also revolting.
Not all heroes wear capes.
I will never have this problem… 😂
What a gorgeous color!
You save the world madame! Thank you
I thought I was the only one that wear mines like that too, it’s convenient but that’s why I barely wear it especially because I don’t want ppl to be able to go in my bag
She’s the first white Lady I’ve ever seen wear a headwrap turban style and it looks goood on her 😍
White women did It FIrst
I thought that was her hair.
Cant escape the kris jenner algorithm
Looks cumbersome and not worth the effort when you need to open it in a jiffy!
Nobody in their right mind would buy a Birkin skin bag if they knew how the crocs were kept and killed.
The straps are called 'Sangles', and you place them in the 'Pontet'.
Lol
So we're just making up words now?
A Birkin Connoisseur Obviously .
Yeah, duh, like we didn't know
Thank goodness knows about these overpriced carrier bags
Im sorry but am i the only one who thinks they are ugly and look annoying to open 😅
Thanks it was very helpful,now I know how to wear a BB. Oh...way a minute....I don't have one 😂😂
To much effort to get in so a big No for this bag that I can’t even afford 😂😂
Btw Lovely color and lady is so pretty 😍
Is it just me or is this the most impracticable bag… and it’s ugly.
You are so classy , enjoy your professionalism ❤
Or... you can NOT get this overpriced garbage. Problem solved 😂😂😂
*counterfeit rubbish
I’m so sorry but I will piss on the floor before I buy a useless bag like this
Wear it like it was originally planned, like Jane Birkin
