Hi all,

Deciding on a Granville and not sure if I want the Mink Grey or the Beige.

Any help would be appreciated!!!

Thanks in advance :)

Both are equally stunning. I really like the Mink Grey, but the Beige is very elegant, too.

Do you like light-gold (almost champagne-like) hardware or silver hardware? This may help you decide since they are the hardware colour for the Beige and Mink Grey, respectively.

I would do either color hardware. My view is the hardware has to look good with the bag. Does that make sense?

Now, I like silver with black, but I like more gold with beige I believe. You know, rose gold might be nice with the mink grey...hmmmmm..... Not that they rose gold :)

They had a Panarea bag in Mink Grey with pale cold hardware, and it was really pretty!

Then I suggest the beige Granville. You have to see it in person. It's really elegant, especially with the gold hardware.

Ohhh...the beige. I will ask for a picture of it to be sent to me by the SA then :)

Woo hoo!!

The blue is quite nice as well.

Hmmm....Nobody ever mentioned the blue to me.. I shall have to see.....

Beige! Definitely a timeless, classic colour. I was thinking of getting the Granville too, but probably in a brighter colour (see my signature, lol). At first I wanted Lady Dior but I heard stories about people getting their Lady Diors crushed and then it bends out of shape, and I don't wand to deal with that. The Granville is the way to go =D

The Lady Dior is beautiful but I don't think it is wide enough for me (or deep maybe).

Beige is a classic color!!! I heard it is a bit darker than the Chanel beige so I must be perfect to wear more all year long.

Let me know if you get one!

Thanks so much!

this is a possibility with any structured bag, to maintain its shape over time, you have to be careful not to load it with weight on the outside, eg putting it in a storage box with other heavier leather bags on top or load other heavy objects on it. To maintain it's shape, you should make sure that it's stuffed with the original sutffing material (paper) so it keeps its shape and keep it out of sunlight to reduce colour fading with the sun.

This also applies to any structured Dior bags like the Miss Dior

I agree. Without doing this, any structured bag will lose its shape, including the Hermes Kelly and Birkin bags. So this problem is not exclusive to the Lady Dior.

I always keep my stuffing in the bag. It urks me when I get a bag sent to me without any stuffing. If that happens, I find stuffing around my house, even if it is those little air bags that come with packages.

Hi Tegan, What is your color palette? Will beige suit your clothing better than the mink grey? I lean toward wearing black all the time so I got the Granville in Black with SHW last month...

Good Luck with your color choice as you can't go wrong with the Granville!!

Hiya :)

I think the beige would be good for me. However, the black looks stunning too. But, I did get the black in the soft tote so,.,...

What are the dimensions of your Granville? Did you get the medium?

Hi Tegan,

I first purchased the Medium Black Granville at SAKS, return it and brought the Medium in Mink Grey from Yoogi's Closet and return it. They were both too small for me!

I found the Large Black Granville second hand and will measure it when I get home tonight (I'm at work).
