Presenting the Jypsiere.
It is certainly one of a few Hermès bags I never thought would ever be available in the Hermès on-line store, but then, here it is. Designed by Jean Paul Gautier, the Jypsiere was revealed during his Fall 2008 runway show for Hermès. It is a unisex shoulder bag which usually comes in clemence bullcalf leather. Notice the similarities with the ever-famous Birkin bag?
I must say, it is a really nice bag after seeing it in the store. Same as my Steve bag, it is a little on the heavy side which is understandable considering its all leather construction. The only slightly negative thought that came to mind after checking out the bag was getting used to opening and closing the straps and the swivel clasp. Perhaps it’s just something that one has to get used to. It’s currently available in the US Hermès website in a few colours and two sizes. The small one which measures 13.4 x 10.2 x 5.9 inches retails for US$7,600 and the large one which measures 14.5 x 11.8 x 6.3 inches is US$8,100.
