Few fashion artifacts carry the weight of mythology quite like the Hermès Haut à Courroies (HAC) bag gifted by Serge Gainsbourg to Jane Birkin - an object that not only represents a love story between two cultural icons but also marks the inception of one of the most famous handbags ever created. This November, Christie's Paris will bring this extraordinary piece of fashion and pop culture history to the auction block, offering collectors an unprecedented opportunity to own the bag that predates, and indeed inspired, the Birkin bag itself.
