Specifically the long wallets with flap closure. They are lovely! What colors do they come in? How much? etc! Thanks!

And anyone else with info/pics please chime in...

Hi Jane!!!

[LOL to this post]

This particular long wallet is a classic BV wallet, I would describe it as a 'long envelope wallet' or others would call it a 'long continental'...

I will confirm the colors available, however, here are the prices:

Classic / Fashion colors in Nappa $640
Iridescent Nappa [above] $690
Maggiore Goatskin collection [to match your new bag, hehe] $730

I will take photos of this particular style in all colors available and will get back to you...

In the meantime, don't hesitate with any other questions!

Maggiore accessories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i don't even know what a maggiore is, but it makes lovely lovely leather for bags

jane · Sep 5th, 2008, 08:14 PM

Heh, it's goatskin.

^Jane, I have a BV wallet styled like this. It's my favorite wallet by far! It's like the LV pochette wallet or Balenciaga money and accordions out so things don't fall out when you open it and you just drop bills in, while looking tidy/clutch-worthy like a zip-around when closed. There's a slip pocket behind the card pockets which isn't always apparent in pics. I highly recommend it if full-length wallets work for you.

I saw this green one on the rakuten website (wish I could read Japanese...). Looks lovely...

^^ WOW!! I'm in love!!

I actually just returned my $825 LV Suhali zippy wallet, also goatskin, but man this one seems so much better.

I didn't like the zip-around entry on the Suhali as much as I thought I would, and I didn't like the way LV did the card slots on the wallet. Much prefer BV's method (wider card openings, easier to get cards into and out of).

I want to see one in person though, I'll try Mario's and Nordy's next week.

jane · Sep 6th, 2008, 10:08 AM

I think I like the Iridescents best, actually. Is eclipse the pinkish red in the photo?

jane · Sep 6th, 2008, 10:11 AM

I'd still love to see pics of all the goatskin ones too, though.

whenever you have the chance. If I got one it wouldnt be for a few weeks anyway.

doloresmia · Sep 6th, 2008, 10:36 AM

wow i love this style wallet..... and the maggiore in eclipse or turbolence!

leilani01 · Sep 6th, 2008, 02:20 PM

As mentioned by blugenie, the flap continental wallet is beautiful and versatile. I have one in ebano and I love it!

Hope you get one in Nappa Iridescent....

Tians always has current season items 30-50% off, I wonder how they do it. Wish they would ship international.
