Almost a Birkin for every day of the week.

Former U.S. First Lady Melania Trump flaunted her black crocodile bag from her Birkin collection as she departed The White House on Wednesday. Her entirely black look, from all European designers, isn’t the first we’ve seen to be paired with the famous bag selection. Known for her many appearances with the iconic Hermès handbags, we’ve counted at least six of the style in her collection that amount to a value of over $200,000.
One of her famous bags was front and centre in a particularly cringeworthy moment from this past August, when Melania clutched her tan Birkin while avoiding the former president’s hand as they exited Air Force One. Celebs like Rihanna took to social media to comment and post the viral video.
While we can all agree that we love a classic Birkin, here’s hoping for a future of spotting them on, well, anyone else.
