The story

Created in 1959 and named, the story goes, after the daughter its designer welcomed the day the first bags went out, the Constance is defined by its big H clasp.

It is worn on the shoulder or across the body, which makes it one of the most practical icons Hermès makes.

The 18cm 'mini' version has become the one everyone wants, though recorded sales sit just under boutique price.

The larger 24 is a more grown-up, classic size and sells well below its boutique price.

Our verdict: The quiet classic. The 18 is the one everyone wants, yet recorded sales sit just under retail; the 24 sells well below.
