Your idea to have this collaboration with Marie is SOOO great. These 3 interviews are really informative. You can find so many so-called Hermès experts on YT/IG with a lot of false info about quality storage, stuff to buy to keep the shape,... Some of these tips are harmful and damaging. I'm happy that Marie's answers help us to educate ourselves. I hope you can make other interviews with her. I already have some questions left... Have a nice Sunday, Juliet!
aw thank you so much Thank you 🖤 please do leave any questions and I'll see if I can get them answered. Appreciate your lovely comment. Hope you had a great Sunday!
Another fantastic episode, Juliet! I especially loved Marie's restoration of the moldy Birkin. I can understand how upset someone would get to discover that much mold on a precious bag, but in the horse world, we dealt with it all the time. Saddles and bridles would get used on a horse, the horse would sweat from the exercise, and if you didn't thoroughly clean your tack before putting it away, or if the tack room was damp and didn't have good ventilation, you would get mold on all your stuff. I have several cleaning tricks and products I use to restore moldy tack, so caring for leather bags is not intimidating to me, but I think I'm out of the ordinary in that regard. Marie is a wealth of knowledge, and I love that you've had this series with her where she's shared her stories. Thank you so much! ❤️
Love this comment! Fellow horse girl here! 👋 I love the equestrian background of the brand. Of course I’d be a bit nervous cleaning such an expensive bag, but I feel bad when I see people online afraid to use and enjoy their beautiful Hermes bags because they think they’re going to get “ruined.” These bags are so much hardier than people think!
We live in a sad world when this kind of repair is considered exceptional instead of the norm. I am glad old crafts are making a comeback, because I know that my parents used to re-sole their shoes every now and then, and it was considered normal.
Thank you so much for these interviews. 👏 Very insightful into the care, craftsmanship of Hermes and informative. I had seen this photo of this Berkin with the mold and am even more impressed with Marie knowing she's the restorer. Wow!🤯
What a wonderful and informative interview. We always hear how unapproachable and unfriendly Hermes employees are, I enjoyed seeing the humanity behind this luxurious brand and the artisan that works for them.
This is so much fun to watch! , I wish you ask her about if we bring Birkin to repair handles or bottom parts (leather parts) at her shop. Can we still bring the bag to repair at Hermes boutique in future or not. Can another ARTISAN/Hermes SA will notice (reject/refuse) to repair.since it has been repair outside of hermes shop like that
Loving these interviews, Juliet! And Marie brings an interesting take on storage. If you watch Mel's interview with Marianne, an Hermes collector and authenticator for 30 years, she says to always store the bag upright. Especially with a Kelly, if you store it laying down, it creates a pressure point on the shoulder of the bag, leading to damage in the long run. And she also says that if you store your bag in the box, over time, the glue used to keep the box together will start to smell, and the bag will adopt the smell of that aging glue. Marie is saying the opposite - store it laying down and inside the box... Both women bring a lot of experience and expertise to the table, so I can only conclude that everybody has their own methods when it comes to caring for Hermes pieces, maybe there isn't one right answer. As long as we treat the items we own with care and respect, there is no reason why they shouldn't last us a lifetime....or even outlive us and be passed down to our daughters!
This is such an amazing series girl!! I missed number two but going to watch it rn. I hope you discussed colour transfer! I’ve always been curious if they can work on bags with colour transfer 🤞🏼
@@JulietPicard yes I watched it all!! Such an excellent series! If you do a next one would love to ask her about colour transfer and also repairing your bag outside of Hermes: can they tell that you’ve had someone else service your bag and will they deny a repair if you have had someone else work on the bag? Thanks again for an amazing video series
Ur video is just the best one i have ever watched on youtube❤. If u could please answer my question. Then what is the max types of exotic leather combinations on a birkin.
So I have seen a couple of storage recommendation from Hermes that suggest laying the bag down on its back but then I've seen issues from people who did this and the inside back pocket created an outline that can be seen on the outside. Also, I have seen bags kind of leaning backwards from storing on its back. Can y'all share why this would happen if storing on the back is the proper storage technique?
So informative! 👏Store bag in box? I’ve always heard the opposite ~ don’t store in box because of lack of oxygen. Does Marie recommend storing in box with or without the lid on? 🥰
Thank you for a very informative Hermes video. Just wondering if it's okay to store the bags with the twillies on or it would not be good for the leather. Heard that twillies should be off to let the leather 'breathe'.
I would love to know what happens to the rest of the skin when they need to dip into the leather bank. Does the rest of it get used? I have seen an older color on a Rodeo and wondered if it was a scrap from a repair.
I would absolutely never ever use an insert... only fourbi but not when storing it... even using an insert when using the bad is not recommended at all... but always always use something inside... personally i use only fourbis or a silk scarf inside with my stuff inside the scarf 😘😘😘
That mold issue was horrific! I couldn't even tell the bag was black. I have a question though... I thought Hermes doesn't spa interior of bags? She was still able to spa the interior of that bag?

I’ve had to stop doing my accounts to watch part 3 lol. My account is new but I’ve just done my first birkin unboxing. Xxx
Thank you 🖤 congrats on your account!
Dear Juliet thanks for your Chanel , I really need your help my ostrich barking got coconut oil stain how to clean it away please…?
I would absolutely never ever use an insert... only fourbi but not when storing it... even using an insert when using the bad is not recommended at all... but always always use something inside... personally i use only fourbis or a silk scarf inside with my stuff inside the scarf 😘😘😘
That mold issue was horrific! I couldn't even tell the bag was black. I have a question though... I thought Hermes doesn't spa interior of bags? She was still able to spa the interior of that bag?
Do different repairs cost different amounts?
Thanks! I've noted your questions 🖤
Hello! Do you know where I can buy an attractive replacement strap for a Kelly. I don't want to pay $1500 for one from Hermes.
Did she say “put the purse in the dust bag”…then store in the box?
you both are adorable
Is it true that bags that go back for repair go back to the original crafts person?
❤
🖤🖤🖤
Does she have her own business? Repairing bags now?
