The latest and most exciting bag off the Hermes Fall runway is the Jypsière bag (aka the Birkin messenger) designed by Jean Paul Gaultier. He was seen wearing the androgynous shoulder bag down the runway following his Fall ‘08 show for Hermes.

The bag is fashioned after a hunting satchel in which Gaultier describes as “a functional, nonchalant bag slung across the shoulder, combined with the iconic details of the Hermes bags”.

The much anticipated bag has yet to make its first appearance but apparently, there is already a long waiting list in the United States.
