Chanel, Hermes, Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Mansur Gavriel, Celine, and Henri Bendel
Chanel, Hermes, Saint Laurent, Givenchy, Mansur Gavriel, Celine, and Henri Bendel
Update, and honestly have no idea what I was smoking on the last two, I must've seen bags I like from these two before I posted.
Dooney & Bourke [Alto]
Gucci [Leather/Python]
Hermes [Kelly & Birkin] - don't own any
Celine [Tie Tote, Phantom, Trapeze] - don't own any
5th is a toughie. there are a few brands where I literally like 1 bag they produce, which I don't feel is enough to warrant a spot on my fave. so I guess I would have to say Valentino [but NOT rock stud], I like the style of those bags, very swirly, scrolly, ornate.

Hermes- Chanel- Louis Vuitton- Ferragamo- Gucci but for now all my bags are Hermes, ( wallet, calendar cover, passport cover, belt, scarf, scarf ring, few pairs of shoes) since the moment I touched a vintage Hermes i feel the different of quality. Hermes is at the top. Try once and you will see, i am sure you will be conquered
Hermes is certainly top of the line quality, but also comes at a premium price which is generally far beyond others. I don't own any Hermes, but have "tried" them [in the store of course] I just don't feel as though there is truly an appreciable difference [to justify the huge difference in price] between other luxury brands, [I'm speaking specifically on Gucci, can't really speak on any others]. Do you feel their quality is truly 5x [or more] greater than other luxury brands? I just couldn't feel that much of a difference [if at all].
i did feel the different, when i was searching for my wallet in Paris, I went inside Hermes store first ( of course the price was 2-4 times more expensive than one Chanel wallet). Then I went to Chanel store, to look if I could take one wallet to save money. But I was not happy at all with Chanel wallets. Finally I bought Hermes Bearn at that time. Then I changed to Hermes Dogon, and now Azap. i couldn't use other brand much more even I bought Hermes from reseller sometimes now for a vintage bag, why not. The quality of Hermes vintage is still better than many brand new brand bag which will be cracked, spoilt after one year
oh wow. Yeah, I can't speak on others, but I love Gucci quality. and that's awesome you can have only Hermes...I'd be sleeping under a bridge lol
