High End Alternatives to a Birking

[ClaphamTulip]

Hi all! I really want a high end "dressy" tote. The dream would be a Birkin but I just cannot justify the cost.
What would you say are good high end alternatives that don't cost 15k? Thanks!

YSL Sac de Jour, Prada saffiano tote, LV City Steamer, and Celine Luggage are the first few that come to mind.

Consider a Garden Party 30 or 36 from Hermes too.

Ferragamo Studio model. Designer product, excellent quality, comes with a detachable, adjustable cross-body strap, unlike the Birkin.
Good luck in your search.

Also the Brera model by Valextra - quality, design, heritage maker.

Used Birken from Japan that you take to the repair specialist to get it looking brand new and send to the spa for an even deeper clean?

LV Milla or City Steamer, Mulberry Bayswater, Tod's Holly or Timeless come to mind.

Ralph Lauren Ricky came to mind. It's a bit more rare especially in Europe and talking of fussy closure...

Japan is one of the biggest sources for super fakes. There are better choices than to risk losing that much money.

Not mad at all at this answer.

There are super fakes everywhere but there are reliable resellers and you can add a layer of security via authentication services.

That being said, have you found better sources / regions in which to buy preloved Hermes? I’m not an Hermes fan so I can’t help OP on this one.

Agree on the Ricky or the RL collection 50 bag
Both are beautiful and really well made

Here's the RL collection one

I vote for Sac de Jour also. Very nice looking.

YSL sac de jour.

and not a Birkin look-a-like but Valentino's VSLING bag gives me Kelly vibes.
