16 Handbags Named After Celebs

 

Jason Wu "Diane" Bag

Diane Kruger and Jason Wu are well-known sartorial besties so it was no surprise for us when they collaborated on a chic fold-over purse.

HERMES BIKIN BAG One of the most iconic (and expensive) bags of all time may be at risk for losing it's name came to be after French singer Jane Birkin vocalized the need for a more stylish weekender. (That she got, and the rest is status bag history.)

MULBERRY "ALEXA BAG" It didn't take long for Mulberry's 2010 "Alexa" satchel to become a must-have bag among style mavens world over.
MULBERRY "CARA" BackpackThe ever-trendy backpack got the Cara Delevingne-treatment in 2014 courtesy of Mulberry.
Bally "Greta Garbo" A bag shape this classic deserves a name that harks to Old Hollywood, which is exactly what Bally did.
Gucci "Bardot" Bag This sleek shoulder bag—named after legendary beauty Brigitte Bardot—is fit for all occasions.
Ballin "Amal" The Italian brand was so taken with Mrs. Clooney that they gave this chic, roomy tote her name (she has, by the way, been spotted with the bag several times).


Hermes "Kelly" This Hermès tote is as highly coveted as its Birkin successor, not to mention as chic as its Grace Kelly namesake.

Louis Vuitton "SC" Bag Back when Marc Jacobs was still at the helm of Louis Vuitton, he crafted a bag in homage of his good friend (and design muse), filmmaker Sofia Coppola.
Ferragamo "Sofia" Bag Make no mistake—despite the spelling discrepancy, this bag was named for the Italian screen siren Sophia Loren.
Marc Jacobs "Stam" Bag Supermodel Jessica Stam may be semi-retired, but her namesake Marc Jacobs tote is still very much in season (the designer created the bag for her in 2006 to carry her model portfolio in).
Modalu "Pipp" Bag The brand renamed this quaint carry-all the "Pippa" after Pippa Middleton was spotted toting it around London (which, as you might imagine, led to record sales).
Gucci "Jackie" Bag Also called the "Bouvier" bag, this style became a Gucci brand staple after Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis was sighted frequently wearing it.
Luella "Gisele" Bag The Bündchen-inspired bag—created in partnership with Mulberry—revived Luella (sadly, however, the brand has since been discontinued).
Mulberry "Del Ray" Bag This structured style got its namesake from sultry singer Lana Del Ray, who is often seen toting Mulberry arm candy.

 Tod's "D-Bag" The leather goods brand renamed this tote the "D-bag" after Diana's passing in 1997.
