At the trial held on September 27, defendant Truong My Lan (Chairwoman of the Board of Directors of Van Thinh Phat) wanted to get back two Hermès handbags that were confiscated by authorities.
"When I was arrested, two albino Hermès handbags were confiscated. One I bought in Italy and the other was given to me by a Malaysian tycoon. These bags are not worth much, and I want to leave them to my children and grandchildren as souvenirs. Therefore, I would like the Trial Panel to consider allowing me to get these bags back," defendant Lan stated.
The Hermès handbag that Ms. Truong My Lan mentioned is the Birkin Himalaya bag - one of the most famous leather designs in fashion history.
Impressive with its luxurious and gorgeous appearance, the Birkin Himalaya handbag is said to elevate any style when combined with it. As the most "coveted" Hermès bag, the Birkin Himalaya bag can cost $100,000-500,000 (2.5-12.3 billion VND) on the resale market, according to Vogue .
This bag has appeared on the hands of some super-rich people and entertainment stars around the world.
