Did you Know? Fact on Hermes Alligator Kelly Bag
Fun designer handbag fact of the day - did you know it takes not one, but two alligators to create the Hermes Kelly handbag. The best exotic skin is found on the jowls and tummy of the gator. The belly is used for the body of the bag and the neck skin becomes the sides.

I would doubt that lol. unless that 2 HUGE and flawless alligators. Ive heard it takes a whole alligator hide just to make one single CDC bracelet (about 8 inch x 2 inch) SO i would guess at least 4 or 5 would be needed for a kelly bag.

Kinda sad to think that it takes so much gator for such a small and pricey bag....

actually one of the most expensive handbag were made from gators...just wondering why PETA is not paying attention for this, the fact that gators are consider as endangered species...

Yes, Britney makes 800,000 a month (no joke) and still carries fakes. Somewhere out there is an article showing her getting off a plane with that sleazy manager and buying a bunch of fake D&G bags from a street vendor.
