^^I think you already did

Here's my Millie...the matching isn't as bad as the other pics, imo. I have to say I'm relieved this was a response to a supplier problem, and not something they sought. Phew!

Ms.Lizardo · Jun 5th, 2009, 11:51 PM

Actually No Cute that one doesn't look as bad as the others....I'll have to take one of mine tomorrow.

Euridice · Jun 6th, 2009, 12:17 AM

I agree, No Cute yours looks decent.

Nat · Jun 6th, 2009, 06:19 AM

Mine came with the metal plate. Sad to hear it'll be no longer used.

I prefer the heat stamp if the metal plate isn't an option anymore.

starkfan · Jun 6th, 2009, 09:52 AM

No Cute, yours definitely looks pretty decent. Is the leather label the same metallic leather as the trim around the zipper? It definitely looks better when it blends in like that!

I heard back from Maria re: my remade Gabrielle, and she says that she's requested for it to have the metal nameplate. I'm not sure if she put in that request only after I emailed her, though, but I'm guessing that's the case. (Hopefully they can do that in time, as it'll apparently be ready on Monday!)

I definitely still hope that they can keep the metal nameplate, though. The heatstamp would be a better option, but the metal nameplate still looks the nicest, IMHO.

ITA, starkfan.

lionlaw · Jun 6th, 2009, 10:34 AM

Ok, I just emailed them our collective feedback-- told them we prefer the metal tag, dont need a ton of purse hooks, hanging tags cut off by all but one of us, some would pay $5-10 to get the metal, some would like to see a Coach or Prada like hanging tag (I really think this is too cost prohibitive, but we shall see what they say).

I agree I like the metal label more, but I would be ok with the heat stamp too.

Euridice · Jun 6th, 2009, 10:44 AM

I agree metal best, but of course if it can't be done heat stamp thingie. I don't cut my tag off....was that me??? hee hee

No Cute · Jun 6th, 2009, 11:31 AM

I don't cut them, just hang them else where

.

Thanks, LL!

Yes, my Millie looks decent and I'm not unhappy with it, not thrilled but not unhappy.

Suzzeee · Jun 9th, 2009, 02:46 AM

I agree the metal plates were the best and my second choice would be heatstamp - if they have to go to a leather label, I'd prefer it be finished and sewn it - glued on isn't good at all. I also take off those hangtags and I have a ton of purse hooks so don't need more of those.

duranie70 · Jun 9th, 2009, 10:20 AM

Ignacio said going forward it is the heat stamp.

Ms.Lizardo · Jun 9th, 2009, 10:27 AM

Thanks Duranie....I have been emailing Maria and she has Ignacio scrounging around to try and find a lone metal plate (if there are any left) for my turquoise Chiara....God I hope they find one, but at least it will be heat stamped if nothing else.

It's nice how Ignes responds immediately when they hear customers are not pleased. Speaks very highly of them, I think.

No Cute · Jun 9th, 2009, 01:07 PM

^^They are very nice.

Starkfan, yes, the label in my Millie is the same leather as the trim.

newbaglover · Jun 9th, 2009, 04:05 PM

Hi all! good job around with the labels! I have just checked my miniemilia and it also has the glued leather label in gunmetal leather. I Know I am late, but I agree I would prefer it heatstamped for the next bag.
