What cost-of-living crisis? Australians splashing the cash on luxury bags, health clubs and art. The Purse Affair in Melbourne.
Owner Alex Leung at The Purse Affair in Melbourne, which specialises in secondhand high-end bags.
His store is for the wealthy elite who don't want to be on the wait list for a Birkin or who are unhappy with the one offered and want it in a different colour.
It's also for the "want-to-be aspirational middle class" looking to get a bargain - a high-end brand at a consignment price. The store, The Purse Affair, is filled wall to wall with secondhand designer bags - more choice than you would ever get shopping inside Gucci or Fendi or Dior.

PETA protest outside Hermes, New Bond Street, London, UK
PETA protest outside Hermes, 155 New Bond Street, London, UK.
26th July 2023
Australian activist Tash Peterson dumps ‘Guts’ outside Hermes in crusade against crocodile skin
Sporting a "crocodile" suit and matching boots, famed vegan activist Tash Peterson drenched in "blood" and "guts" from a mock croc bag in front of London’s flagship Hermès store, in a push for the luxury retailer to drop reptile skins.
Footage of farms owned by Hermes and its suppliers revealed that crocodiles are confined to cramped cages and small concrete pits filled with filthy water before they are electrocuted, dragged, and mutilated - some while still conscious.
The action follows the recent passing of Jane Birkin, who once asked for her name to be removed from Hermès’ crocodile-skin Birkin bag due to concerns over cruelty to animals. Her death also prompted PETA to send an urgent letter to Hermès urging the brand to retire the handbag and adopt a policy prohibiting the use of exotic animal skins so that no more wildlife is killed in her name.
Peterson’s home country, Australia, is the world’s main producer of saltwater crocodile skin, exporting 90% of it internationally. Hermès already owns the majority of the crocodile farms in the Northern Territory, yet it is planning to expand its operations further by building Australia’s biggest crocodile farm to date and imprisoning up to 50,000 animals there at a time.

PETA protest outside Hermes, 155 New Bond Street, London, UK.
26th July 2023
Australian activist Tash Peterson dumps ‘Guts’ outside Hermes in crusade against crocodile skin
Sporting a "crocodile" suit and matching boots, famed vegan activist Tash Peterson drenched in "blood" and "guts" from a mock croc bag in front of London’s flagship Hermès store, in a push for the luxury retailer to drop reptile skins.
Footage of farms owned by Hermes and its suppliers revealed that crocodiles are confined to cramped cages and small concrete pits filled with filthy water before they are electrocuted, dragged, and mutilated - some while still conscious.
The action follows the recent passing of Jane Birkin, who once asked for her name to be removed from Hermès’ crocodile-skin Birkin bag due to concerns over cruelty to animals. Her death also prompted PETA to send an urgent letter to Hermès urging the brand to retire the handbag and adopt a policy prohibiting the use of exotic animal skins so that no more wildlife is killed in her name.
Peterson’s home country, Australia, is the world’s main producer of saltwater crocodile skin, exporting 90% of it internationally. Hermès already owns the majority of the crocodile farms in the Northern Territory, yet it is planning to expand its operations further by building Australia’s biggest crocodile farm to date and imprisoning up to 50,000 animals there at a time.
