Jane Birkin was synonymous with chic. An unlikely icon of French cinema, her effortless style and artistic legacy have been immortalised through her music and film career. And, of course, this British babe was the inspiration behind one of the world’s most coveted handbags — the Hermès Birkin. But who was the real woman behind the muse?


Join writer, critic and film curator, Kate Jinx and New York Times bestselling author Marisa Meltzer for an in-depth discussion about Birkin’s extraordinary life, times and legacy, inspired by Meltzer’s newly published biography, It Girl.
