PricingĪs with all Hermès handbags, prices are always in flux (and always on the up) in boutiques, but you can expect to pay around €1,400 for a TPM, ranging up to €3,200 for the TGM. This needn’t become a concern though – if it’s important to you, there are many third-party providers who make internal pouches for Hermès bags to help organise your items. If you have your eye on a PM or above, bear in mind that the Evelyne does not have any internal pockets, which can at times make it difficult to find things without some digging around. Hermès Evelyne 29 Clemence Mauve Silvestre The next two sizes up, the GM and TGM (the latter of which is rather rare), can both usefully accommodate a laptop, however those with a smaller frame may prefer to stick to the PM to keep things in proportion. The TPM can fit your daily essentials for running about town, such as a phone, keys, lipstick and cardholder – but not much else beyond this! In comparison, the PM (which despite being only the next size up, is nearly double the width of the TPM), is far more capacious – many consider it a great style for the office. In line with our current obsession with all-things-mini in the bag world, the tiny TPM is unsurprisingly popular, particularly amongst the Instagram generation. You’ll also find these models referred to as Evelyne 16, Evelyne 29, Evelyne 33 and Evelyne 40 – the number corresponds to its width in centimetres. The bag is available in four different permutations: TPM, PM, GM and TGM (short for Très Petit Modèle, Petit Modèle, Grand Modèle and Très Grand Modèle). A rare 2004 Hermès Evelyne TPM I in Orange H Doblis Suede Sizing UpĬomparing Evelyne sizes is a major talking point amongst Hermès obsessives. Hermès also introduced the Evelyne Sellier in 2016, a sleek variation crafted from Hunter leather with an embossed logo at the front, rather than perforations. The Evelyne III, which remains today, has an external pocket and an adjustable strap. Second-generation Evelynes have an external pocket, and a non-adjustable strap. The first generation of the Evelyne has no external pocket, and a non-adjustable strap. Since its release in the late ‘70s, the Evelyne has gone through three key iterations, with some small differences to take note of if you’re shopping secondhand.

#Hermes evelyne skin
For a less rigid appearance, Clemence leather is made from baby bull and gets slouchier with age, with a heavier skin and wide natural grain. Epsom also shows colour beautifully, if you have your eye on a brightly-hued Evelyne. Epsom is a stamped-grain calfskin which is lightweight and structured, making it very easy to care for (it also fares well in the rain). The Evelyne is crafted in durable leather that will weather the ages: on the whole, you’ll be choosing between styles made from Epsom, Clemence or Maurice leather. Thanks to its clean, utilitarian aesthetic, many consider the Evelyne to be a unisex bag – the perfect partner to everyday life, whatever your gender. The Evelyne’s wide, detachable canvas strap makes for a comfortable cross-body experience, and is a design nod to a horse’s girth (the strap which helps secure its saddle). In contrast to other classic Hermès bags, it has an open top with just a small leather tab and press-stud fastening to secure it. The DetailsĬompletely unlined with no internal pockets, the Evelyne has an air of chic simplicity which lends itself well to casual outfits. Now, you’ll find the Evelyne pride of place in boutiques as one of Hermès’ most popular styles. As Refinery 29’s Christine Barberich told the New York Times in a 2012 feature about the Evelyne, ‘in this economic climate, you don’t want to be all blinged out’. Fashion editors noticed that shoppers were leaning towards more low-key, affordable handbag styles to avoid looking ostentatious: the Evelyne, with its minimalist lines and fuss-free design, was just the ticket.

Once only found in the equestrian section of Hermès boutiques, it was after the 2009 recession that the Evelyne gained new momentum.
