And, of course, she was the inspiration behind one of the world's most coveted bags, the Hermes Birkin. But who was the real woman behind the it girl? Now, author Marisa Meltzer sheds new light on Birkin's enigmatic life and explores her profound influence on generations in a rigorously reported biography unlike any other.
