Privé Porter’s Guide To: The Next Faubourg — Is Pink Coming?

Few words cause a bigger stir in the Hermès world than Faubourg — and this week, a new whisper has collectors losing sleep. A recent post circulating across collector circles teased what appears to be an upcoming “Pink Faubourg” Birkin, complete with two design options and that unmistakable 24 Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré façade.

Nothing is confirmed — but that’s exactly the point.
When Hermès whispers, the world listens.

The Faubourg Legacy

The Birkin Faubourg first appeared in 2019 as a playful architectural homage to Hermès’ Paris flagship. With its miniature storefront façade, contrasting awnings, and ultra-structured Sellier shape, the design instantly became one of the most collectible modern Birkins ever made.

Birkin Faubourg Day, Night, Midnight & Snow each sold out instantly, later commanding three to five times retail on the secondary market.
Its 20 cm Sellier silhouette and multi-leather façade construction made it more akin to wearable art than a handbag.
For many collectors, a Faubourg isn’t just a “grail” — it’s a museum-piece moment.

Enter: The Whispered Pink Faubourg

According to the viral teaser, the next evolution could be a Pink Faubourg — possibly in two formats:
Option 1: Birkin Touch Alligator with Madame Leather
Option 2: Full Alligator with Togo and Swift accents

If true, this marks the first time Hermès would bring its façade-themed Birkin into a full pastel palette — and pink isn’t just any color.
From Rose Sakura to Bubblegum 5P, Hermès pinks consistently rank among the most coveted and most feminine hues in the Maison’s history. A Pink Faubourg would fuse the sweetness of Hermès’ pastel legacy with one of its most architectural, structured designs — a contrast collectors can’t resist.

Why the Hype Feels Familiar

Every Faubourg release follows a pattern:

A whisper online.
Photos circulate quietly among private resellers.
Then, a handful of confirmed sightings in Paris or Geneva.

By the time Hermès officially acknowledges it — if ever — the world’s elite collectors are already calling their SA’s, and the secondary market is ready to explode.

If this “Pink Faubourg” proves real, expect it to sit at the top of every serious wish list, with prices that could easily rival the Snow Faubourg’s record-setting resale highs.

The Collector’s Perspective

For Privé Porter clients, the Faubourg isn’t about trend-chasing — it’s about timing.

A pink-toned façade would be the first of its kind, making early verification crucial.
Exotic versions (like Alligator Touch or full Alligator) would multiply exclusivity and price dramatically.
Expect Hermès to allocate only to its highest-tier clients; the rest of the world will rely on trusted resellers.

As always, authenticity and provenance are paramount. Every Faubourg should include verified Hermès stamp, hardware alignment, and original documentation — details we at Privé Porter scrutinize relentlessly before sourcing for our clients.

Final Word

For now, the Pink Faubourg lives in the realm of rumor — but that’s how every legend begins. Whether it appears in Alligator, Madame, or mixed with new leathers, the next Faubourg release will almost certainly rewrite the hierarchy of modern Hermès collecting.

Stay alert, because when whispers turn into reality, it’s already too late to find one.
