I haven't seen the bag yet, but I saw the swatches, the fall purple is pretty dark. Very pretty tho IMO.

Hi envazine,

Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of the dark purple. I want to see it too and see how dark it actually is. I think it belongs to Act 2. Maybe September will be a better time to see it IRL.

If it's dark purple, does it looks like eggplant?? I have the 2001 purple caviar but not sure if the color will be similar to the new purple in ACT II.

I haven't been able to track down an Act 1 purple flap at all , seems to be sold out everywhere, so I haven't been able to see it IRL yet.

Are the pics I've seen on here pretty accurate on colour?

What a dilemma!
Carry on searching or wait for Act 2 with the silver HW that I prefer?!
