After reading this entire thread and getting totally psyched, that pic of the red "maxi" let me down!! God, it looks like someone sat on it.

I think it is a sample, and they always get abused! Hopefully it will look much better irl! They are supposed to be coming soon! The red at least. I just got word from my SA.

Agree with you re the name

And yes, that looks more like the ones I saw.

Sorry, I can't remember the h/w but I think the ones I saw had gold. And it wasn't red. It was salmon.

I called Bond st today and they said it would come in quite a few colours in both lambskin and caviar but they would all only come with silver handles and CC.
I am wondering if maybe different countries will get different colours???? I really wanted black with gold as well!!!!!

Is the chain of the Maxi going to be the traditional leather-and-chain one or the bijoux-type chain? Inquiring minds want to know!

Everyone you speak to seems to be very vague on the actual details, Selfridges "aren't sure but they think its leather and chain"

I was told the maxi was going to have gold chain. Does anyone know which stores ordered the caviar? Which material do you ladies prefer? I like the red lambskin due to the vintage red bags. At the same time I am also worried that it can be too delicate for such a large size. The white looks better. The red is miserable! I am keeping my fingers crossed that the final edition will not come out like that! And the price...I was quoted both 3495 and 3100ish. Which is correct?
