Kim Kardashian faces a $80,000 dilemma after doing something that felt "illegal"
Kim Kardashian knew exactly what she was doing when she put her signature on a luxury Birkin
K im Kardashian is a loyal follower of luxury fashion and knows the value of these pieces , but she may now go down in fashion history for doing something that felt almost illegal to her. At a Skims event in Shanghai on Monday night, Kardashian was handed a metallic gold pen and asked to sign her name in the middle of a fan's red crocodile Hermès Birkin 35, apparently.
The reality star appeared hesitant before taking the pen, aware of what the signature could mean for such an expensive handbag. She joked about the situation feeling illegal and even described it as blasphemous before eventually deciding to go through with it.
A signature on a very expensive handbag
Despite her hesitation, Kardashian did sign the bag, leaving her autograph on what appears to be a highly valuable Hermès piece. A viral video shows the moment as the fan hands her the Birkin and Kardashian pauses before putting her name on it with the gold marker.
The moment has drawn attention because the original social media post claimed the bag was worth around $80,000. Kardashian is also known for her appreciation of Hermès, making her hesitation understandable given how closely a Birkin's condition is tied to its value.
Kim Kardashian's most expensive autograph?
Now, Kim Kardashian's most expensive autograph may live on a Birkin bag. A handbag of this kind can be significantly affected by its condition, materials and history, making any permanent mark a major decision for its owner.
