In one hand she lugged along her massively oversized Hermès Birkin bag, which according to Jane Finds is worth a staggering $110,000.

Her purse of choice that day was, specifically, the Hermès Birkin 50 HAC Gris Tourterelle Shiny Porosous Crocodile Palladium Hardware bag.

Kim complemented the pewter grey handbag with a complementary silver jumpsuit that plunged to serve up a generous helping of cleavage.

Slicking her dark hair tightly back into a bun, she sharpened her screen siren feature with makeup and accessorized with a sleek pair of shades.

She balanced expertly on a towering pair of black leather stilettos that matched the glinting gloves she wore on her latest New York outing.

The Birkin bag was named for the late English songstress Jane Birkin, who shot to international fame as the muse of French singer-songwriter Serge Gainsbourg.

Over the past few decades the purses have acquired an exalted status as a social marker, signifying exclusivity and enviable wealth.

The original run of Sex And The City had an episode where Samantha (Kim Cattrall) goes to increasingly desperate lengths to bypass the five-year waiting list she would have to slog through to get her hands on a Birkin.

Jane Birkin herself once recalled that ‘when I went to America in an interview they said: “You mean Birkin, like the bag?” I said: “Well, now, the bag is going to sing!”‘

Kim was roundly mocked online for her acting skills when she first started appearing on American Horror Story: Delicate in September.

‘I’m not into Kim at all #AHS,’ wrote one user of X, formerly Twitter, while another complained: ‘Kim sucks at acting. Why is she on this? Ruined it for me.’

‘Guys I’m so ducking confused what is the new splot of AHS?’ still another viewer wondered. ‘Why is Kim Kardashian here?’

‘I feel like I gave the new season of #AHS a valiant, open-minded watch but… I can’t,’ an audience member confessed. ‘Kim K is an objectively terrible actress.’

Even Kim’s seven-year-old son Saint remarked on her ‘bad’ makeup when she FaceTimed him from the set, as seen on the Hulu reality show The Kardashians.

She features on the anthology series as Siobhan Corbyn, who does PR for an actress played by American Horror Story staple Emma Roberts.

Part I of the current season aired from September to October, and Part II is now in production, scheduled to be broadcast next year.
