^^ I only have the small but I'm guessing the answer is no since neither the large nor the small can be worn cross body.

Nope. I have a medium now and I just tried it cross body and it is right under my boobs. It's a no go.

?
all the large i have can TOTALLY be worn crossbody!
with lots of space left so that the bag is hanging down comfortably... so no worries about that.
it is just that the handle comes with a knot in it so many people do not undo it for it to work. i cannot explain it to myself otherwise

I have a medium, and I wear it cross body, messenger style, shoulder strap knot undone.

I'm 5'4'' and small framed so maybe it's a height thing for some wearers, or maybe we all have shoulder straps of varying length.

I must agree with Demicouture. I have NO problems wearing mine crossbody. I have the large.

KittyKat65 · Jul 22nd, 2009, 09:45 AM

Hmmm, interesting. I am 5'7"and can not wear it crossbody. The Large I had was from last year and maybe the straps have been lengthened since? There was NO way it could have been worn cross-body. I just adjusted the strap on my medium to the longest hole and it still sits just under my boobs. Weird. Maybe they all vary slightly.

caroulemapoulen · Jul 22nd, 2009, 02:36 PM

Kitty: Did you remove the knot? Because I HAVE to before I can wear it crossbody. As far as I know mine is from last year too. :)

caroulemapoulen · Jul 22nd, 2009, 02:40 PM

I am 158 cm, btw.

bedhead · Jul 22nd, 2009, 07:37 PM

I can wear my mediums cross-body, with the knot undone of course, but at the longest hole the top of the bag is about at my natural waist, which I think looks a little too high for a messenger-style bag. That said, I wear my Bal Couriers cross-body and they hit me high too, but they are slouchier.

I'm 5'8", so I think someone a few inches shorter might be able to wear it messenger-style without a problem. Both of my mediums are from last year.

aaaaaaacccckkkkkk, that purple has won me over. I have decided to say goodbye to my black and get the purple instead. I can't justify having 2, unfortunately. That purple is so pretty and I *NEED* a purple bag
