Kim Kardashian, Kanye West Denied Hermes Bag Purchase for Daughter North, 12
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West recently encountered a setback in their attempt to purchase a luxury bag for their daughter, North West. The information surfaced in the March 5 edition of Amy Odell’s Back Row newsletter. A former employee from the Hermès store in Beverly Hills detailed how the couple was denied the opportunity to buy a coveted Mini Kelly bag for their 12-year-old daughter.
Failed Shopping Mission for North West
According to the newsletter, Kardashian, 45, and West, 48, expressed interest in acquiring a Black Mini Kelly bag for North. However, Hermès declined their request. The source speculated on the potential reasons for this denial, indicating that high-profile clients often attract media attention, and the brand might not want certain images to circulate.
Why Hermès Denied the Purchase
- The source mentioned the brand’s concern over who gets photographed with their products.
- Hermès prefers to maintain exclusivity and control over their high-demand items.
Despite missing out on the Mini Kelly—alligator bag, which can exceed $72,000 in resale value—North still boasts an impressive collection of Hermès Birkins. These bags can be borrowed from her mother, aunts, and grandmother Kris Jenner.
North West’s Unique Birkin Bag
In 2014, Kim Kardashian revealed a touching story about how North customized her own Birkin bag. The reality star discovered a purse that North painted, showcasing her creativity. Kardashian described the moment as fantastic, highlighting her daughter’s artistic talent and personal touch on a luxury item.
This recent account underscores the complexities surrounding celebrity shopping habits, especially when it comes to luxury brands like Hermès. Despite their fame, even high-profile figures like Kardashian and West can face limitations in their purchasing endeavors.
