Kelly Lakis Bag

I think a 40 Lakis would make a great travel bag or briefcase. Unisex.

I actually tried one on at the SF when it first came out. The SA told me it was a "big deal, in terms of it's revolutionary design", I paraphrase of course. I felt it looked a bit like a briefcase, and I worried about the toile on a bag that was designed to be a workhorse, so I passed. It was about the same price as a "regular" Kelly.

I opted for a suede Kelly which I never used and ultimately sold to someone in Turkey!

Now it's about the price of a birkin!

Unisex? Maybe I can persuade DH that it can be "OUR" bag

I can absolutely see using it as a briefcase!!! My 40cm's B get way too heavy with files papers etc,,,,,the shoulder strap and outside pockets seem divine

I want one

I actually love this bag - Fisch for the Hip in NY had one in black a year ago (32cm) and the Lee Gardens store in HK had (or maybe still has) a brown box/canvas Lakis in 32 cm. I agree it would make a great workbag, whereas a regular Kelly doesn't since it's so hard to quickly get things out of the bag (and organize inside). I do think the Lakis needs to be a 35cm at least, though, for a useful work bag!

I agree that it has to be at least 35cm for a work bag. I've tried a 32cm and thought it was too small. 40cm was a tad too big, although if I can convince DH to "share" the bag, then it probably has to be 40cm to work for both of us.

I never knew the Lakis came in a 35cm size. I can only imagine what that one is priced at lol! When I bought my 32cm last year, it was priced around 9k - which was more than the 35cm Birkins were at the time. I can only imagine what they will be after the next price increase!

 

[costa]

I know... it's really expensive, more than the birkin 30 and now Ranag confirm more than a birkin 35!
But it's a gorgeous bag and I agree with those that say it has to be considered a different bag from Kelly.

I was never too fond of it from pics, but then I watched someone buying it at FSH, and it looked great, if you like the briefcase style!

Hi,

I have this bag as well and am about to post it on ebay. Does anyone know the retail value of this bag?

Anyone know what is the current RRP for a Kelly Lakis 35 in full leather?

It is $12,000 and change! Don't recall the exact amount...

 

[lasexy]

My local Hermes dealer told me, that the Lakis is rare, ie limited numbers each year and that she has never seen one for the last 5 years!

Any truth to this and how many are made each year approx and in full leather?

I would like to know if the kelly lakis only comes in one size, 32cm or 35cm, cause i didnt see any other size of that model. the bigger kelly i saw was 40cm and i wanna know if exists a lakis on that size too, does anyone know more about this model??? I'm obsessed to find one in noir or gris with palladium.
