Handbag year you were born

[snibor]

Cute article but it only goes back to 1969! Lol! I’m too old. Also don’t list all designer names. Still a cute idea.

Oh I love this! I'm 1968, but very late in the year (tomorrow actually), so I can consider 1969 with only two months' error. ------ Which is ironic, because it gives me the quilted leather, and I *literally* just told hubby last night that when I go for another Versace, I want a quilted one. I actually looked at them *this morning* before seeing this post.
(Wondering if I can count that as a message from beyond. )

Thanks for posting it!

Is it weird that the bag in my birth year is the one I would never wear...lol

Fun article!

I don’t think they have 2018 quite right. As I don’t see many people wanting the micro bags. Lol!

What a fun article, thanks for sharing!!! So fun for me to see the change over my lifespan, from the 90s to today. It's too bad they ID'ed the Balenciaga craze as just "fringe bags", and attributed the Birkin to the Kardashians [emoji24]

How come there’s no MJ Stella, or the Paddington on the list?

Because it's a nonsense "article" that was just written as a clickbait. The topic is interesting, but too bad it was put together in 20 minutes with repeated Google searches.

I'd love to see but I can't see the article. Any chance someone could list the bags?

I get this:

We could compile our own (more expert) list

Aw. Sorry you can’t see it. It has some nice old photos. Maybe someone more technologically savvy than me can copy it in this thread?

Yes! Let's do this! It would be fun! Or, you others do it, I am totally clueless about that bag was in what year so I would not be much of a help. But sounds like a fun idea, and I am missing quite a few it-bags on that list! I am sure you others who have been on here for some time could make a much more accurate list! The idea was fun!
