For some reasons, it looks kind of "hippie" to me. Me don't like it.

I don't like it either. It's like the woven style - I did not like those either. Just not my style.

I don't like its butt. I mean that olive large piece on the bottom. Why don't they have the bottom in the same color as the handles?

I start to think this looks like beggar's bag.

I like the style, not the patchy thing.

I really dislike this bag. I saw it at the Bal boutique and it really wasn't interesting. You think they're taking away all the old stock from Bal stores in the US to cut them up and create more of these bags? :P

That's such a horrible thought. All those gorgeous past season bags just waiting to be butchered, it's enough to give me nightmares.

I haven't seen this IRL, but I know exactly what you mean about depressing. I think it's the horrible mishmash of beige, olive, brown, bordeaux, black that just doesn't work. Then the terrible zigzag stitching makes it look cheap and tattered.
It reminds me of the woven bag as someone said, but in the case of the woven bag the colours were bright and cheery: white, praline, maldives, layette, officier and gorgeous mandarine. And the woven bag looked like it was well-crafted.
I'm sorry but this is a real no-no

I agree. The bottom of the bag is the wrong colour.

Yes, it does look like a beggar's bag, because of the miserable patchwork and the dreary colours. However, I do think that the leather looks gorgeous. I wonder if it's agneau, as some patches look really shiny. But I don't like the matt leather trims. I'm trying to like it, but I can't

I think you are absolutely right. These colours are all gorgeous individually but not together on one bag. While the colours of the woven bags fit beautifully together these just does not. And then the zigzag stitching
