I went on a shopping trip in the city recently and noticed a dearth of Mulberry bags compared to a year or two ago. I was in the Union Square shopping area in San Francisco and it has Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale's, and Nordstrom. Out of all these major luxury department stores it appears that only Nordstrom still carries Mulberry bags and the selection is considerably smaller than it used to be, even though they recently renovated their entire handbag department and the space is much bigger and nicer now. Even the new Bloomingdale's with the giant handbag selection does not carry Mulberry at all! I've also noticed that many of these department stores' websites used to have Mulberry but have stopped online as well.
This is very disappointing because up here in SF we do not have a Mulberry boutique and it is now going to be very difficult for me to both buy anything and also see things in person and select the bag I want (especially as the characteristics of the leather can be so different on each bag). As a Mulberry fan I find this extremely upsetting!!! If you love Mulberry please write to some of these department stores and let them know they should carry them!
