LOOK WHO’S BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO LAND ONE
VICTORIA BECKHAM
VICTORIA’S diamond-encrusted Himalaya was a £75,000 gift from husband David and one of the first to be created in 2008. Since then, she’s become a collector, with 100 Birkins worth around £1.5 million.
CELINE DION
THE singer, 50, has a Himalaya Kelly, a sister of the Birkin, that has just one strap and was made famous by Grace Kelly, who used it to hide her pregnant tummy from the paparazzi.
TAMARA ECCLESTONE
THE heiress daughter of F1 billionaire Bernie has a collection of 30 Hermes bags. Still, at least Tamara, 33, has scrimped a little by buying the Himalaya Birkin without diamonds, which sells for around £60,000.
KIM KARDASHIAN
REALITY television star Kim, 37, has a 30cm version of the Himalaya Birkin — for now, anyway. She has previously sold two of her Hermes bags at auction.
