It wasn’t until Fall 2016 that Hermès re-launched the modernized Mini Kelly II, which collectors and celebrities swooned over instantly. Delicate and very expensive, the skin of this bag is farmed from the Alligator Mississippiensis alligator, also known as the American Alligator, which is created by polishing the spots with agate for a lisse finish. Should be kept away from water. It an exquisite cocktail bag and an inspired choice for a red carpet event.
