The World’s Most Expensive Handbags



Here at Luxist I’m hardly the handbag expert (that’s Sandy and Marsha’s department) but when I saw this article I couldn’t help but chime in. I love a cute purse just as much as the next girl, but some of these are priced upwards of $100,000 and $200,000! Are they really worth that much? Maybe I don’t love purses as much as the next girl…

Personal feelings of value aside, several of the creations on this list of the world’s most extravagant handbags are truly gorgeous, and many have so many diamonds and so much gold that justifying the price tag definitely gets easier — it’s an investment! My favorite? The Nancy Gonzalez Porousus Bag, which is actually one of the more reasonable bags on the list coming in at number 9 and costing only $30,000. And here are winners 1-5:

  • Chanel “Diamond Forever” Classic Bag, $261,000
  • Hermes Matte Crocodile Birkin Bag, $120,000
  • Lana Marks Cleopatra Bag, $100,000
  • Leiber Precious Rose, $92,000
  • LV Tribute Patchwork Bag, $42,000
