Thanks, newbaglover. You are right. I did send Ignacio an email and he mentioned that the video was 2 years old.
I think for now I will be happy with the Midi Sofia and a Mini Ormala. I can't wait to see what the 2 new styles will be:-)

hi, hipnycmom! I think one of the styles shown was the Virginia, which can still be made. I recognize two others from old clippings, like the barrel shaped one!

Midi Sofia and Mini Ormala are the two most classic, quintessential Ignes style, IMO. Which ones did you order?? Did I see this somewhere??

I am curious on the order too!

I'm not sure of the older bag names. The one does look like a Virginia though.

The bags I saw were the Annette and the Chika. I kind of like the Annette:-)

I know we are veering off topic but I ordered the Midi Sofia in Cognac with shoulder strap only, black fabric lining, gold HW and the Mini Ormala in Dulce Leche, blue with silver suede lining, gold HW, shortened straps for hand carry and a detachable shoulder strap. These will be my first 2 Ignes bags so I hope I chose well.

I'm sure they are going to be gorgeous, hipnycmom! I must check out Dulce Leche leather. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

Hip- you made such great choices! They sound really lovely. I don't know if it is too late, but if not and you want a very slouchy midi Sofia, you could ask for no reinforcement, like adoptastray and knasarae (spelling) bags.

Thanks, everyone! Elizat, I did ask for no reinforcement - I hope that was noted. Is the Sofia very stiff when reinforced?

JRed, a Dulce Leche Sofia caught my eye in the Ignes photo shoot video. It's the perfect shade of caramel!

I promise to post pics when my delivery arrives. Thanks again!

^ Does not hurt to double check. It's not overly stiff, but has more structure. The non reinforced puddles in such a great way. I wish mine was like that!

Hi, when Ignacio got back to me about my look book questions, he mentioned that:

"On Friday we’ll be revealing one of our new styles, and another one will be revealed next week!"
