So...I went my nearest Bottega Veneta boutique and special ordered the Veneta bag in ferro. The SA was surprisingly very very nice. She told me that Venetas in basic colors are not the favorites to take in as a SO, so we SOrdered a second one which is a Veneta in ferro, but with a "crocodile" piping around the bag in ferro. I am so excited to hear back but it is just too cruel waiting for the answer...

I really do hope they admit this SO.

Oh that just sounds disgustingly ridiculous!!!

I really hope the SO goes through, can't wait to see this special creation.

Good luck

Adding the croc would be an upgrade which makes it more likely to be approved since all SOs must now be upgrades from the original leather/color. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you, too. That sounds fabulous!

Ferro croc trim, sounds divine! Hope you get a

soon!

Baggiana · Oct 21st, 2009, 01:36 PM

Yes, the waiting is difficult - and even more difficult once it has been approved! So the croc would be in the braided trip and the zipper pull? Oh, that sounds just so amazing! I have a SO veneta in ferro and ottone karung - and I have never regretted doing it!!!. Will the body of the bag be nappa or nappa umbria? Here's keeping my fingers crossed that Tomas approves just what you want!

Oh, ferro croc trim veneta ! I smile just thinking of it; so devine, so lovely ! Fingers crossed for your SO approved.

baghooligan · Oct 22nd, 2009, 03:10 PM

Thank you everything for knowing my suffering!

I chose nappa umbria and the croc will be the zipper pull and the braided trim. I also wanted the inside signature to be in croc.
