little late to the party...everyone's cabat is drool worthy!!

here is my shy little one that hasnt come out and play for a while..

ottone cabat 07

hi catabie,
your bag is beautiful.
haven't seen you around for a while.
hope all is well.

you know, I really, really thought I only needed one cabat in my life. but all these beautiful pictures are making it hard to resist more.

catabie I always love your cabat pictures!

thanks annie9999 and mundodabolsa!

been busy being a lurker rather than a poster...and also try to focus a bit more on jewelry nowadays.

a quicky q, can i get cabat in dept stores?

^ nope, they are only sold in the boutiques i think.

i think catabie is correct- only boutiques.
catabie- glad everything is ok.
your bv and h collection is amazing, i'm sure your jewelry is tdf.

Does the cabat handles stretch out over time? I've seen many pictures of cabats with handles longer than mine and I wonder if this is common to all cabats or you must load the bag to an extend to see the stretching?

It is the Asian size, I bought it in May 2007.

Oh... this thread is making me want to get another Cabat...

Love reading all the posts.

The Cabat comes in Asian size (small, only sold in Asia), Medium, Large, and Uomo (extra large).

Different leather used: Croc, Ostrich, Lizard, Chevre, Vachette, patent leather, sueded leather, nappa umbria, and calf.

They are only sold in BV boutiques.

^ a croc cabat will be in my dream tonight!!

also, i was chatting with my SA today and how i say that the opening sometimes is too big that i am scared things may fall off. She told me BV can put magnetic closure on there for me and it takes about two weeks. i thought this may be informative for those who are interested.

nero cabat here i come!

Good to see you, catabie!! How's your little one?

This is indeed informative... I might want it if I ever venture out for cabat!!

A croc cabat is my ultimate bag! I'll kill for the large marble croc cabat that they had couple seasons ago...

uclaboi- you should get another cabat too ! which one do you have in mind?

catabie- nero cabat is so classic, you must get one before the next price hike

Magnetic closures? That's such a fantastic idea! Too bad though the only way for me to buy one is to travel all the way to NYC, and I don't think I would be spending 2 weeks there

I think I'm ready for the nero. Is there a known price hike?

Not sure...but it's always a possibility for the current season as the price hike hit around May of last year
