What happens when the world’s most exclusive bag loses its mystique? This week on Adulting Done Differently, we’re looking at the rise and (potential) fall of the Birkin. From its status as the ultimate symbol of quiet luxury to its recent dupe-fueled identity crisis—thanks to Walmart’s “Wirkin”—we’re peeling back the layers of what makes something truly aspirational.
It’s not just about the bag, though. We’re unpacking how exclusivity shapes our ideas of success and why a shift toward accessible fashion might change the luxury market forever. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when an icon becomes a little too attainable, this one’s for you.
So, pour yourself something chilled, lean back, and let’s talk about what the Birkin’s journey says about fashion, status, and where we go from here.
