Undoubtedly, all these famous ladies have already left their mark on history, but they were also lucky enough to touch the world of fashion. Each of them had a bag named after them, which eventually became iconic. Manufacturers of the accessory are the most famous fashion houses.
Jane Birkin - Birkin by Hermès
Who would have thought that one of the most desired objects of recent decades would be “born” in the sky in 1984 during a flight from Paris to London? British actress Jane Birkin, sitting next to Jean-Louis Dumas, executive chairman of Hermès (1978–2006), complained that she could not find a bag that suited her needs as a new mother.
A born creator with a keen eye, he immediately sketched out a flexible and spacious rectangular bag. With a special place for baby bottles! A couple of years later, Jane received her first Birkin as a gift, which instantly became a stylish hit.
Jacqueline Kennedy - Jackie O by Gucci
A boho bag inspired by jetsetters in the 1960s.Its peculiarity is its convoluted shape and gold clasp. Once upon a time, this particular model was so loved by the First Lady of the United States that the woman unwittingly influenced her popularity by giving her her name.
Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele was inspired by Jacqueline's passion for the accessory and presented his own version of this bag. This is how Jackie O was born, which today is available in different sizes and shades (from pastel to more saturated).
Princess Diana of Wales - Lady Dior by Dior
Lady Di's favorite bag was the Chouchou from Dior. After the tragic death of Diana, in tribute to the memory of the great woman, the fashion house changed its name to Lady Dior.
Monica Bellucci - Monica by Dolce & Gabbana
Sensual, elegant, feminine Bellucci inspired Domenico and Stefano to create the Monica bag. And the designers really managed to embody the outstanding features of their favorite in this model.
However, the actress has been inspiring the creators of the brand for a very long time. For two decades, fashion designers have been declaring their love for their beautiful compatriot and regularly organize la dolce vita for her in advertising photographs.
Lana Del Rey - Del Rey by Mulberry
Inspired by the retro style of American singer and author Lana Del Rey, this accessory was created in early 2012 and has remained popular ever since.
The bag, simple and elegantly structured, was an instant success. Mulberry explains that they were inspired by Lana Del Rey's "nostalgic references to bygone glamor and her playful contrast between retro and modern luxury."
Alexa Chung - Alexa by Mulberry
The TV presenter herself did not participate in the creation of the accessory, but it was she who became the muse for Emma Hill, the director of the brand. Having seen Alexa at one of the events with a man’s briefcase, the idea immediately appeared in her head to create a comfortable and roomy accessory, but more feminine and elegant. Bag model Alexa has become a true classic.
Brigitte Bardot - BB by Lancel
One of the most popular accessories of the famous Parisian House, dedicated, of course, to Brigitte Bardot. The model has never been produced (and probably never will be) in leather - out of respect for the principles of the actress, an ardent animal rights activist.
The shape of the bag is inspired by her sensual figure, smooth curves and wasp waist, the tassels are reminiscent of her blonde locks.
Amal Clooney - Amal by Ballin
In 2014, the Italian brand renamed one of its bags in honor of George Clooney's wife. This decision was not influenced in any way by the newly minted status of the wife of the most eligible bachelor in Hollywood.
The fact is that Amal (by virtue of her profession, a lawyer in international law) most often appeared in public with roomy accessories with several compartments and wide pockets. Therefore, representatives of the Ballin company decided to pay tribute to her by naming the model after her.
Gisele Bundchen - Gisele by Luella
It was this bag that saved the fashion house from closure back in 2002. Luella Bartley asked Gisele Bundchen to walk the show with her... and Luella's sales skyrocketed. True, after a short time the brand ceased operations, but the bag has already gone down in history forever and gained success thanks to the famous Brazilian supermodel and actress Gisele.
Grace Kelly - Kelly by Hermès
In the 1930s, Robert Dumas, son-in-law of Emile Hermes, who succeeded him as head of Hermès (1951–1978), created a women's bag with straps. He designed a trapezoidal shape with two triangular inserts, a cutout, a handle and side straps, and with this he brought the House into an era of boldness and modernism.
And legend has it that in the late 1950s, Grace Kelly, the Hollywood star turned Princess of Monaco, was photographed with a bag on her stomach to hide the first signs of her pregnancy. The accessory gained international fame and was renamed Kelly.
Diane Kruger - Diane by Jason Wu
The actress and Jason Wu are longtime friends and have finally become friends with a personalized bag. Diana was directly involved in the creation of the accessory. The bag turned out to be very expressive, but at the same time discreet and elegant.
Jessica Stam – Stam by Marc Jacobs
Marc Jacobs created an amazing bag, the muse is Jessica Stam, a supermodel from Canada who is on the Doll Faces list. Once a girl complained to the designer that her huge portfolio did not fit into any bag. Mark not only solved her problem, but dedicated the release of a new accessory to her, naming it after Jessica. At the beginning of the 2000s, the model was super popular. It was a quilted version with a chain belt and was available in two shades, but the greatest demand was for black.
