On October 9, Cardi B showcased her rare and luxurious collection of Hermes Birkin bags, valued at over $2 million.
The American rapper flaunted three of her latest additions to her collection of extravagant accessories on her personal page. The bags, made from deep red, gray, and mustard crocodile leather, each start at prices of $60,000 or more. Cardi B has a penchant for crocodile leather and has amassed a collection of Birkin bags in various colors, including red, orange, black, green, cream, turquoise, purple, and pink. In an interview with Page Six, she mentioned that she is running out of space to display her bags and is planning to build an additional room for storage.
One of the rarest items in her wardrobe is a 30 cm Himalaya bag, which has a resale starting price of $300,000, while her House Birkin bag is listed at nearly $400,000 in the second-hand market. Additionally, she frequently uses a Cargo bag worth around $240,000 and a deep green Kelly Cut Exotic bag priced at $27,000. To match, she often dyes her hair to complement the color of her bags.
According to Page Six, Lara Osborn, Vice President of Purchasing at Fashionphile, confirmed that Cardi B’s collection is valued at “over $2 million“. This collection can be considered priceless, as the emphasis on rare leather, size, color, and unique shapes makes Cardi’s handbag collection a coveted target for many.
She isn’t shy about showing off her Hermès House Birkin bag, which was a gift from her husband, Offset, in 2023. This rare bag is currently listed on the e-commerce platform 1stdibs for an astonishing price of $398,975.
This isn’t the first time Cardi B has showcased her Hermes Birkin collection. She previously shared photos of her daughter Kulture (6 years old) with her bags. Cardi even coordinated her blue-dyed hair with a blue Birkin bag valued at approximately $79,000.
Upon seeing the extensive collection of the rapper, many viewers expressed astonishment, noting that the bags are worth as much as multiple houses. Comments such as “I can’t even afford to look at this photo” and “Birkin could very well be Cardi B’s middle name” were made in jest.
Cardi B, known for her bold style and strong personality, has not only conquered the music scene but has also garnered attention in the fashion realm. One of the standout elements of her style is her Hermes bag collection, which she has established as a symbol of luxury and prestige.
