I asked about the graphite speedy at the Nashville store today. I was told it was not happening and surely would never happen this September.

OH well, that means I have until spring to maintain my purse fund for an azur neverfull or eva.

I would LOVE a graphite speedy- I like Southern Charms' idea- we should all touch base with the company and ask them to make them!!

I'm gonna be the minority here and I hope I don't get bashed for this. But IMHO, I think the Damier Graphite should stay a "Men Exclusive" line because it's about time the men have more collections for themselves. The Ladies already have the Multi-Color, Denim, Mini Lin, and Vernis (to name a few).

I'll be a minority also and say that I personally think the graphite is very masculine and wouldn't buy it if they did come out with it. JMO.

It might make a nice small carry on travel bag, even for the ladies!

Perhaps if everyone on the forum who would love to see a graphite speedy voiced their desire for one through LV's customer service, they will move the idea from the "table of ideas" to something more firm!!!!
hope so!

I agree! If not I won't have any other things to buy from LV and I'll have to head to Prada or Mont Blanc.

I don't want to be rude but graphite isn't really made for ladies and I hope LV will stick to that. It's as weird as getting a Speedy in Taiga leather.

Was at the boutique the other day and my SA told me that at a meeting she attended they said the Graphite Speedy is THE most requested/inquired about item via the 1 (866) number. I asked if LV would take the hint, and my SA said that there are absolutely no plans for a Graphite Speedy or any Ladies items. We'll see.....

I know. It sucks... I don't want a ebony damier bag because I never wear brown. I am addicted to black and grey. I have no immediate plans for a new LV bag, but I would order a graphite speedy if it were made available.

They should do a twist on the graphite damier check and make it another women's line... Like a black and metallic gunmetal check. Or make the checkered pattern smaller for the women's line... Give me something, LV.

I hope LV never makes a speedy in graphite. That would cheapen the line. The Speedy already comes in ever woman print possible!

My store manager mentioned that the Damier Graphite was exclusively for "men's" designs ... but wish they would make the Beaubourg in Graphite - it's such a genderless design

I saw a fake (obviously) graphite speedy 28 (i say 28 cos it wasn't 25 nor 30 since the fakers obviously didn't take proper measurements) that other day. The speedy shape with the size is nice. So I'm hoping they come out with a graphite speedy 30 soon! Oh, that one even came with feet and so well made, but the color and feet and size are a dead giveaway.
