Guess I can pick it up sometime in Sep. Of coz the earlier the merrier!
Since we have the trunk show later herein HK (just happened on May 21-22), probably those who've pre-ordered this cabat in US / Europe would get theirs earlier?

BL: I assume the armatura is still available in HI...last I checked was DEC/Jan09..it is gorgeous from the pics that I've seen here..=)

I'd love a bag in irredescent ash!! But they only made it in slgs right??

Bichon Lover · May 28th, 2009, 02:10 AM

Oh, stop it! I can't take any more.

uclaboi · May 28th, 2009, 02:36 AM

^Yes, Armatura should still be available in HI, but if not, they are def. available in Japan.

Have you seen it in person at the trunk show? It wasn't available in the US trunk shows. I'm thinking about it, but not sure, yet.

Yep, I have! At the beginning the SAs only brought out the cabat in Grape (or Lilac?). I took a deep breath and told myself "cool down... I'm just here to look & touch the new bags, I'm not buying any!" I was holding my wallet tight & was so proud of myself until they showed me the reflect cabat.... since it's the very last quota left for HK, the SAs had to show it to me secrety in a fitting room. When they opened the dustbag, my jaw dropped...

elephant armatura is available now and is from FW 09

armatura is from FW 07? or so

it seems like ELEPHANT ARMATURA is hard to capture in pictures. the hawaiian SA says it has the grosgrain effect and is very reminiscent of iridescent ash from FW 08. that just sounds heavenly!

Elephant Armatura looks so pretty! I can't wait to see more photos. Thank you for sharing the info and pics, doloresmia!

Wow, that's really soon!!

Wonder if the Elephant Armatura is LE or not??

i don't know whether armatura strictly falls in the LE status, but it is only available to US folks from Hawaii, so in that sense it is limited.

Reflect cabats on the other hand are LE, and only 55 were bought for US market.

GO UCLABOI!
