The Designer Handbags Portal

Designer Handbags: every woman's friend. But other than shopping for the cutest purse to match your latest outfit, what do you really know about the History of Handbags? I bet you didn't think that you were going to get a history lesson coming to this page - did you? Think about it though, the "handbag" has been around longer than you think. Depending on which source you read, some sites online state that the first users of a handbag were men 2,000 years ago in biblical times. I mean, this makes sense, the men being the 'hunters and gatherers', or even messengers going from town to town, men were out and about and probably had their valuables tied in some sort of hide or skin to their belt for safekeeping. Were there fancy versions created for the elite and wealthy? I'm certain of it. Fast forward about 600 years to the Egyptians, and that's where the first actual mentions were in hieroglyps of handbags (in pictures of course). Bags were attached to the waist, and all kinds of fancy stitching, embroidery, and jewels were applied depending on status in society. Girls learned how to sew and embroider, and their amount of skill made them more of a prize for marriage. Wow, who knew that the best designers started this way? lol...you get the picture - the history of designer handbags and their desireability started a very, very long time ago.
