What would you do for a Birkin bag?

With price tag from $8000 to $80000 depending on leather many world’s richest and powerful women dream to lay their hands on the Birkin handbag made by Hermes. The Birkin bag is an exclusive product which officially has a waiting list of two or three years — or even as much as six years for special editions.

Hermes handbags remain among the most timeless fashion accessories.  Widely considered to represent the pinnacle of elegance and good taste, these bags have rested on the arms of the world’s most glamorous women. The Birkin bag indicates woman’s social status, success and wealth, or else Hermes wouldn’t be selling her this bag.

Celebrities that have adopted the handbag, named after British actress Jane Birkin, include Julia Roberts, Victoria Beckham, Lindsay Lohan, Eva Longoria, Sandra Bullock, Mariah Carey, Portia de Rossi, Jodie Foster, Elle MacPherson, Demi Moore, Kate Moss, Sarah Jessica Parker, Nicole Richie, Martha Stewart and Oprah Winfrey.
