FELL IN LOVE WITH THIS BAG THE FIRST TIME I SAW IT ON THE RUNWAY
I’ve recently added a gem to my collection, and I couldn’t wait to share the details with you all! It’s the Hermès Limited Edition Navy Epsom Kelly en Desordre 20 from the AW 2022 collection. The Kelly Desordre bag first appeared on the runway of FW22 season. Since then I also saw it and tried it on in the Paris St. Honore store, and who knew a year later it would become my first blue box bag.
The Colour: Sapphire
Let’s talk about the showstopper – the beautiful navy shade that’s as timeless as it gets. You know the past year has definitely be the year in which I fell in love with this colour more and more – that started with my purchase of the Cargo Birkin bag. This limited edition Kelly en Desordre flaunts an asymmetrical double-sided structure, making it a true standout in the crowd. The exterior is adorned with the iconic Kelly-style buckle, adding a touch of sophistication.
Innovative Design: A Symphony of Style
What sets the Kelly en Desordre apart is its innovative take on the traditional Kelly silhouette. The “en desordre” collection brings a fresh, modern vibe with its unique form and esprit de corps. The outer stitching gives it a rhythmic and stylish look, embodying the Hermès craftsmanship we all adore.
Versatility at Its Finest
The main pocket comfortably fits a mini wallet or planner, while the side pocket is perfect for holding your cards. The gussets of different widths and the trapezoidal bottom add a touch of calculated and unbalanced charm – it’s like a work of art you can carry.
Runway Royalty: Limited Edition Frenzy
As I mentioned earlier the Kelly en Desordre made its debut on the Fall/Winter 2022 runway in Paris, and since then, I’ve not been able to keep it out of my mind. If you follow my TikTok you would have seen I also tried it on in the beginning of the year. It is definitely not your everyday Kelly; it’s a limited edition beauty presented in a blue box that’s a first for me. Little did I know, one more was on its way. ( Read all about it very soon)
Why the Hype?
U suppose that no Hermès collector needs to be explained this. This bag is not just a bag; it’s a fashion statement. With its dual exterior flaps, external pocket, and the absence of a top handle, it’s truly something else. The shorter non-detachable shoulder strap ensures it sits perfectly just below the waist, giving it that trendy, street-chic vibe.

Pros and Cons: A Real Talk
Let’s get real about the Kelly en Desordre. On the pros side, the 20-centimeter size is a sweet spot for those who appreciate the mini bag trend. The shoulder strap length and the practicality of the interior compartment make it a winner. However, the potential wear and tear on the lock catch are worth considering – after all, we want this beauty to last!
This bag has stolen my heart and become a cherished part of my collection. The deep navy shade, a timeless favorite of mine, paired with its avant-garde asymmetrical design, makes it a showstopper. Its versatility, practicality, and the distinctive Hermès craftsmanship embody a perfect blend of sophistication and modernity. Yes, there might be a minor concern about wear, but the allure of this limited edition beauty, showcased in its iconic blue box, is simply irresistible. It is not just bag; it’s a style journey you’ll want to embark on!
