Hermes’ most coveted designs,<br />
the Birkin (see pic) and Kelly,<br />
always command a premium on<br />
the secondary market, and their<br />
prices continue to rise annually.<br />
As the first “It” bag, Fendi’s Baguette,<br />
launched in 1997, is still highly<br />
coveted, and vintage models in<br />
excellent condition fetch substantially<br />
more than their initial price.<br />
On the secondary market, a mint<br />
condition Chanel Classic Flap<br />
sells for around half or close to<br />
its original price, particularly<br />
if it is in the desirable small or<br />
medium size.<br />
It is reported that Telfar, Gen<br />
Z’s first “It” bag, has an average<br />
value retention of 195%, which<br />
means they appreciate to nearly<br />
double their initial cost.<br />

Choosing a Louis<br />
Vuitton bag is a smart<br />
financial move because<br />
of its ever appreciating<br />
value. Limited edition<br />
ones and those kept in<br />
mint condition tend to<br />
bring good returns.<br />
In terms of style and value, the<br />
Lady Dior remains timeless. Both<br />
current and vintage ones are<br />
desirable and may fetch a good<br />
price in years to come.
