The original birkin bag size that Hermes made for Jane Birkin was 40, not 35.

I have noticed a few controversial sources regarding the original size. some say 35 some say 40,too. but I have seen for myself the original Birkin (with JB initial) in an exhibition in Liberty, London and it was indeed the35 size. not the 40cm. However, do you have a source confirming it's the 40? as i'm very keen to learn too because I have seen a lot of different sources giving conflicting details. Thanks :))

@@BagBoyChannel Hi there, Great news!!! The mystery is solved. I actually have read so many articles about the size of the first birkin bag. Most of them informed that it was size 40. Anyway, yesterday I decided to contact Catherine, the lady who now owns THE bag. She got this bag from the auction house in Paris in 2000. She replied my email message today to conform that the size of the first birkin bag is 35 in box leather with JB initial and should strap, the one you saw at Liberty. She was so kind to send a picture along with her reply. She also told me that the bag will be displayed at V&A museum in London in November 2021. I would love to see it though. I missed 2 great shows at V&A, Christian Dior, Designer of Dreams and Alexander Mcqueen, Savage Beauty. Have you seen any of those? Anyway now we can die in peace with the true information of size of the first birkin bag. hahahahha. All my birkin bags are in size 40 though. I prefer size 40 even though my body is smaller than yours. I also have HAC in size 40 in box leather. It's hella heavy. hahahha Have fun.

@@montrikhrueareerat1924 awwww now I can die in peace! Thank you for your information krub. It really means a lot for me to have a platform for us H fans to discuss the things we love. I would really love to visit V&A by that time i can imagine it will be a great exhibition there !!! I only went to Balenciaga exhibition at V&A a couple of years ago krub it was really memorable with several intriguing artefacts krub ! Yes I love B40 so much too but as i get older I really find the weight of it to be troublesome so i'm more tawards the 35 nowadays krub. So for the HAC40... forget it :) I cannot remember the last time I actually used HAC. it's been yonks krub :))
