They are so heavenly...



What other bag styles does elephant armatura come in?

I am not a metallic girl, but after seeing these two colors, I am really really liking them.

Question: do they only come in Veneta?

I walked into the boutique with my OP bag and the first thing one of the SAs did was to tell me they had a similar color coming out for fall and then point me towards the new pieces in Elephant. And they are very, very similar. I would describe Elephant as Old Petra without the dusty pink/purple undertone (but that's what I love about OP!).

I was hoping someone would be able to do a direct comparison - thanks! I agree - that dusty pink/purple undertone is what I love so much about Old Petra, so I'm not sure what to think!

I hope this is not duplicate. I just saw Early Fall items popping out at bottega.com US online shopping.

Enjoy :) I just noticed that someone else has posted about it in the preview thread but think that most people are not checking it out.

There are not that many bags up yet. Hope they will put up more stuff soon.
