Yes definitely! And tacky is the right word! Thats why it was disappointing to see some like a -Fine Jewellery SA who jist left FSH- went from educating us about Hermès to a dancing a wanna be influencer posing with other tacky influencers..it was soo tasteless! She used have class!Does anyone else feel like social media has sort of ruined the Birkin bag? You see it everywhere on all these tacky ‘influencers’ - even if these bags are fake there’s still some major brand dilution. I have a couple of birkins from my mom, but am afraid to wear them out because their symbolic meaning seems to be conspicuous consumption and ‘flex’ culture now
The Hermès brand has been def been tarnished by this type of crowd, unfortunately. The brand is supposed to represent luxury...not be like the LV NeverFull Tote! LoL.
As another member pointed out Hermès is paying attention to social media, so hopefully they are cleaning house, especially with the SAs and I actually thik long term these tacky influencers will not be able to afford their madeup lifestyle as the resell market will slow down.
