Privé Porter’s Guide To: Hermès En Désordre — The Avant-Garde Birkin & Kelly That Broke the Rules

Privé Porter’s Guide To: Hermès En Désordre — The Avant-Garde Birkin & Kelly That Broke the Rules

Hermès rarely disrupts its own codes — but when it does, the fashion world pays attention.
The En Désordre collection is one of the most radical and artistic reinterpretations Hermès has ever released, transforming the iconic Birkin and Kelly into sculptural, asymmetrical, runway-worthy pieces.

“En Désordre” literally translates to “out of order” or “disordered.”
But in true Hermès fashion, the chaos is intentional, engineered, architectural — and executed with flawless craftsmanship.

This is Hermès at its most conceptual.
Its most modern.
Its most collectible.

Let’s explore the collection through the very pieces Privé Porter has sourced.

✨ What Is Hermès En Désordre?

Unveiled as part of Nadège Vanhee-Cybulski’s design era, En Désordre is a series that takes the classic Birkin and Kelly silhouettes and intentionally distorts them:

  • Misaligned flaps

  • Off-centered handles

  • Shifted sangles

  • Overlapping panels

  • Unexpected pocket placement

  • Sculptural asymmetry

The result?
Bags that feel like deconstructed art, caught mid-motion.

Imagine a Kelly that looks like it’s shifting off-axis — or a Birkin that feels as if it’s sliding into a different dimension.

This isn’t an error.
It’s Hermes pushing creativity into the three-dimensional space.

✨ The Kelly En Désordre — Asymmetry With Couture Precision


The Kelly En Désordre is the star of the collection. It preserves the recognizable structure of the Kelly Sellier — but intentionally shifts every element to create tension and imbalance.

Key Signatures:

  • Tilted flap

  • Angled handle

  • Off-set sangles

  • Dramatically asymmetric silhouette

  • Structured Epsom or Box Calf leather

  • Available in Gold or Palladium hardware

  • Produced in small quantities across neutrals like Etoupe and Black

Privé Porter Pieces Matching These Notes:

• Kelly En Désordre Etoupe Epsom GHW
Warm. Photogenic. The neutral girlie grail.

• Kelly En Désordre Black Epsom GHW
Sharp. Evening-coded. A power move.

• Kelly En Désordre Black Epsom PHW
The minimalist’s asymmetrical dream.

• Kelly En Désordre Black Box Calf PHW
The rarest and most couture-feeling version — glossy, architectural, sculptural.

✨ The Birkin En Désordre — Deconstructed and Oversized Pockets

The Birkin En Désordre takes the most iconic luxury bag in the world and reimagines it as a kinetic object. The design incorporates:

  • Overlapping exterior pockets

  • An irregular front panel

  • A slightly distorted flap

  • Mixed leathers like Swift + Togo

  • A more relaxed silhouette

The example you have —
• Birkin 30cm En Désordre Swift/Togo Palladium Hardware
— is one of the most sought-after configurations.

Swift brings softness.
Togo brings grain structure.
Together, they enhance the “off-balance” visual language.

This piece feels like the Birkin went through the looking glass — and came out cooler.

✨ Why Collectors Are Obsessed With En Désordre

1. It’s a Real Hermès Collection — Not a one-off.

Collectors LOVE when Hermès deviates on purpose.

2. Limited production = immediate scarcity.

They aren’t made often, and not in many colors.

3. It’s wearable and artistic.

Most concept bags skew unwearable — En Désordre remains practical.

**4. The asymmetry photographs beautifully.

This is why influencers and stylists gravitate toward it.

5. It is instantly recognizable.

Even in a room full of Hermès bags, an En Désordre stands out.

✨ The Privé Porter Take

The Hermès En Désordre is not a novelty.
It’s a movement.

It represents a moment in the Maison’s design timeline when heritage was intentionally bent, stretched, and disrupted — all while preserving the craftsmanship that defines Hermès.

Collectors who buy En Désordre aren’t looking for a “basic” Birkin or Kelly.
They’re looking for:

  • sculpture

  • rarity

  • fashion-forward aesthetics

  • and bags that make other collectors ask, “WAIT… what is that?”

These pieces are future museum items — and current obsession pieces.

Privé Porter is proud to handle some of the most desirable En Désordre models, including rare Box Calf versions, Etoupe Epsom editions, and the ultra-coveted Swift/Togo Birkin.
