The story behind the Constance
In 1967, Jean-Louis Dumas asked a designer to create a bag for Hermès; she named it after her newborn daughter, Constance. A structured shoulder bag defined by its H clasp, which opens on a spring mechanism hidden at each side of the bar and serves as both closure and signature. Produced in Mini (18 cm), standard (24 cm) and Élan (approximately 25 cm); a Micro at approximately 14 cm has appeared in limited production runs.
Discover Hermès Constance BagsConstance 24 in De Camp Déchaînée printed toile with Bordeaux leather trim and palladium hardware. De Camp Déchaînée is a limited-edition Hermès toile featuring an equestrian chain-link pattern printed on Ficelle (natural beige) canvas. The Bordeaux leather trim, handle, gussets, and H clasp strap, provides deep burgundy contrast against the printed toile body. Palladium hardware keeps the palette cool against the warm Ficelle ground.
The Constance 24 is a shoulder and crossbody bag with a single adjustable strap and the signature oversized H clasp closure. At 24 cm, this is the larger of the two standard Constance sizes, offering more interior volume than the Constance 18. Toile-and-leather Constance production is limited compared to all-leather versions, and printed toile editions are rarer still.
Collector's Insight:
The Constance is produced in significantly smaller quantities than the Birkin or Kelly, making it one of the more difficult Hermès bags to acquire at retail. The 24cm format is particularly scarce.
Resale Insight:
The Constance has emerged as one of the strongest performers in the Hermès resale market, with demand increasingly rivaling the Birkin and Kelly. The 18cm and 24cm sizes in classic colors maintain particularly strong positioning.
