Prices realised at Christie's, buyer's premium included, converted to USD at the rate for the sale month. eBay has too few sales of this piece, so the resale range comes from these auction results.

The story

A soft, slouchy Kelly designed to be worn at the waist, crossbody or on the shoulder, with a strap that converts between them.

It was made in Evercolor and Swift and has a much more casual feel than a structured Kelly.

At Christie's it has sold well above retail, about 1.75 times on average. It has a loyal following but is not chased like the Kelly 25.

Neutral colors are the most wanted. The bag was first made in the 2000s under creative director Jean-Paul Gaultier and returned as the Kelly Danse II in 2019.

Our verdict: A wearable Kelly that holds its value. Buy it to use.
