People's reactions are interesting! I wore my Hero to get a sandwich at the deli near my work yesterday, and the guy behind the counter squealed and asked in a reverent tone if that truly was a Lanvin bag I had? And last weekend I was cornered by some women at my city's weekend outdoor market who asked if they could see my Kansas up close and where they could buy Lanvin in this city (happily we have a Barneys). I do think only bag freaks recognize Lanvin, because they aren't logo'd all over, faked or comped out to TV stars. But that, and the design and quality, is the reason I like them
