Fashionphile The Book of Iconic Bags
Over the past three decades, the handbag has become the holy grail of luxury accessories—at once a status symbol, a form of personal expression, a collector’s item, and a savvy investment. Few understand the enduring allure and cultural significance of the “it” bag better than Fashionphile, the ultra-luxury e-commerce platform specializing in the buying and selling of pre-owned designer handbags and accessories.
With unmatched expertise and access to some of the most sought-after pieces on the market, Fashionphile is uniquely positioned to chronicle the rise of the handbag as a modern icon. In this book, the brand curates a definitive list of the twenty-five most influential bags of all time—selected not only for their craftsmanship and beauty, but also for their cultural relevance, investment potential, rich histories, and enduring mystique.
From Hermès’s record-breaking Birkins and Kellys, to Carrie Bradshaw’s beloved Fendi Baguette and Dior Saddle, and newer, viral entrants by Bottega and Loewe, this compelling compendium explores the designs that have shaped—and continue to shape—the fashion landscape. Complete with striking imagery, fascinating stories, and Fashionphile’s expert insights, it’s a celebration of the handbag as both a coveted object and a timeless symbol of style.
