Retourné
Also called Retourne
Construction sewn inside out and turned, for a softer shape.
Christie's explains that a Retourné bag is stitched and then turned inside out so the seams are hidden, giving softer, rounded edges often accented by piping. It is usually made in supple leathers such as Togo, Clemence or Swift, and was the original Birkin construction.
