Q: What size is the Hermès Illco Élan 32 Bag? A: This bag measures approximately 32 x 20 x 6 cm, with a strap drop of around 21 cm. The elongated silhouette gives it a sleek east-west look while still offering practical day-to-evening capacity.
Q: What typically fits inside the Hermès Illco Élan 32 Bag? A: With its 32 cm width and slim profile, it is well suited to essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, cards, and a few small daily items. It is best for streamlined carrying rather than bulky contents. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. The 21 cm strap drop is designed for shoulder wear and should sit comfortably under the arm for most users. As with all vintage bags, the fit can vary slightly depending on clothing and personal preference.

Q: Is this bag suitable for everyday use or better for occasion wear? A: It works well for both, depending on how much you carry. The structured, elegant shape makes it ideal for lunch, dinners, events, and polished daywear, while the shoulder design also makes it practical for lighter everyday use.
Q: What condition is this particular bag in? A: This piece is listed in Very Good Condition. There are some scratches on the exterior leather, light traces of use inside, and the hardware remains shiny with scratches. We always recommend reviewing all photos carefully for the best understanding of its current condition.
Q: What colour is this bag? A: The product colour is Burgundy, a rich deep red tone that pairs easily with both neutrals and darker wardrobes. Please note that colour can appear slightly different depending on screen settings and lighting.
Q: What is included with this item? A: According to the product information, this bag includes a clochette and key. If a dust bag, box, strap, or any other item is not listed in the product information, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: This Hermès bag was made in France, reflecting the house’s long-standing leather craftsmanship tradition.
Q: How should I care for a vintage Hermès leather bag like this? A: Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Keep it lightly stuffed when not in use to help maintain the shape, and avoid overfilling because the profile is slim and structured. Clean only with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaning products or excessive moisture.
Q: How do you verify authenticity on a pre-owned Hermès bag? A: At A Retro Tale, pre-owned luxury pieces are carefully assessed for authenticity using brand-specific details such as construction, leather, hardware, stamps, and overall craftsmanship. If you would like more information about this specific item, our team can help.
