Overview

• Photos captured on August 6–7 in Formentera and Ibiza show Moss carrying a brown calfskin Hermès Kelly through sand in place of a traditional beach bag
• The Kelly retails for about $13,500 new in 2025 and often appreciates on the secondary market thanks to its limited availability
• Close-up images reveal worn edges, sand inside the open tote and absence of a protective dust bag, underscoring Moss’s practical approach
• Hermès’s Kelly, dating to the 1930s, and its Birkin counterpart have outperformed many traditional investments, with Birkin prototypes fetching up to $10 million at auction
• Moss’s choice highlights her enduring influence on fashion norms and how high-end accessories can double as everyday essentials
