Jane Birkin was best known for her artistic partnership and relationship with French musician Serge Gainsbourg. Together, they created memorable music and became symbols of 1960s and 70s culture. Birkin’s name also became synonymous with luxury when the Herm\u00e8s Birkin handbag was named after her in 1981. The bag, renowned for its exclusivity and high price, was inspired by Birkin’s iconic status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2015, Birkin publicly requested that Herm\u00e8s stop using her name for the bag after witnessing footage of cruel practices involved in the production of crocodile leather. She issued a statement through Agence France-Presse, demanding that Herm\u00e8s implement better standards or rename the bag. “Having been made aware of the cruel practices endured by crocodiles during their slaughter for the production of Herm\u00e8s bags bearing my name, I have requested that the Birkin be renamed,” she stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
