Heart Evangelista ‘hearts’ Hermès: 5 of her most chic handbags by the luxury brand, from her Mini Kelly II and Jean Paul Gaultier’s Shadow Birkin to her hand-painted Kelly Sellier 25
- The Filipino actress, artist and fashion influencer boasts an enviable collection of Dior, Louis Vuitton and Gucci wear, but her Hermès bags are among the most expensive
- Michael Coste, the French fashion house’s executive, hand-picked her Hermès Mini Kelly II, while her functional limited-edition Hermès Cargo Birkin comes with a coffee holder
Heart Evangelista clearly “hearts” Hermès!
While the 37-year-old is always sure to be toting the latest (or even yet-to-be-released) and most hard-to-acquire bags from the world’s biggest designer brands – Dior, Louis Vuitton and Gucci, to name a few – the style star always gravitates back to her favoured Hermès. The French heritage brand is hailed for its luxury goods that are often regarded as functional pieces of history and art.

As much as Evangelista loves her Hermès, she appears to be cherished by the brand, too. Evangelista seemingly shares a close relationship with Hermès executive Michael Coste, which dates as far back as 2016 when the two first met, per Philippine entertainment site Pep.
Last year, Coste even personally hand-picked a bag specifically for the fashionista – and one to match her outfit, per the same source. Evangelista was wearing a different bag when she paid a visit to Coste at the boutique in Paris, but left the store with a new one in tow, as seen on Coste’s Instagram and then on Evangelista’s vlog.
