I took my LV Perforated Speedy mall-walking this weekend and got a lot of notably mixed reactions. Although the bag was released on February 20, there has been a waitlist for months so most stores don't have the bag on display, hence not many people have seen one in person. One doubtful lady asked me "Uhmm-uhh-is that-uhh-new or something?" I could tell right away she thought either (1) it was fake or (2) I had too much time on my hands and hole-punched my monogram canvas speedy myself. The funniest question I got today was from the usher at the exhibit in Santa Monica, "Are you hiding a dog in there? Because there are no pets allowed." Perforated-holes-dog-get it? :smile:

Haha that is a funny story. I havent had any reactions that I noticed when I took out thr perfo Musette. I'd love to have the speedy but im too small :sad:

Congrats on your bag You have to think if silly snippy comments back when they say stuff :smile: for kicks!
 
I've totally heard the dog carrier comment before. I didn't really understand it at first, but I guess people just don't understand perforation as pure decoration. I flipped out for the perfo line. Love it love it.
 
my bf told me the same dog bag comment when i looked at it in LV! he said if i used my pursebrite in there, the whole bag would light up if i turn the light on! hahaha

Hmmm... the LV store by me is over loaded with the perfo line. I really havent seen anyone buying them though. They must not be that popular where I am located.

Anyways... great story! Thanks for sharing. :smile:
 
^^^ Same here! It IS a funny story though.:lol: I was talking to my SA and told her that I was thinking of adding a perfo one to my speedy collection and she talked me out of it because we both said at the same time that it looks like a pet carrier.:shocked::lol:
