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 Hermes'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.
