Privé Porter’s Guide To: Blake Lively Is Still New York’s Most Stylish Knicks Fan
There are bag people… and then there are sports fans with Hermès collections.
This week, one of our favorite celebrity Knicks supporters, Blake Lively, reminded everyone that team spirit doesn’t have to mean foam fingers and oversized jerseys. Instead, she showed up carrying what appears to be an Hermès Mini Kelly in Orange Epsom with Palladium Hardware—and gave it a full New York makeover.
Think: Knicks blue and orange ribbons, oversized pom poms, playful charms, basketball details, and absolutely zero fear.
For some collectors, decorating a Hermès bag is controversial. For Blake? It feels intentional. Personal. Fun.
And honestly… Hermès has always been about making the bag yours.
The contrast worked especially well because the base bag itself is so classic. Orange Epsom already feels unmistakably Hermès—structured, crisp, impossible to ignore. Pair it with cooler-toned palladium hardware and suddenly the whole thing becomes less heritage, more courtside energy.
What we loved most is that she didn’t save the Kelly for a precious occasion.
She used it.
That’s something we’ve talked about for years at Privé Porter: the best Hermès collections are rarely the ones left untouched in dust bags. They’re carried, styled, traveled with, accessorized, and occasionally turned into an unofficial Knicks mascot.
Would every collector do this to their Mini Kelly? Absolutely not.
But Blake has always had a playful relationship with fashion—and somehow managed to make a decorated Hermès still feel chic.
Orange Hermès 🤝 Orange and blue.
Some pairings just make sense.
