Traditional Hardware (with Tassels) VS. Giant Hardware (no Tassels)!

[beauxgoris]

Since we PF ladies (and gents) are on the cutting edge of all things Balenciaga, I wanted to take a poll and see what we all think of the new hardware now that some time has passed.

At first it seemed like a lot of us were against it - now the tide seems to be turning - however a SA at NM tells me that the Giant still isn't selling as well as the traditional.

No haters here - ALL balenciaga's are beautiful bags. Just more of an informal poll.

I all bbags, but lately have been drawn to the gh bags. Not getting rid of my classics, but seem to reach for the gh bags more. Right now I am only buying gh, with the exception of firsts (as evening bags). I am also excited about the possibility of silver gh.

I love them both equally - lol!

Definitely GH for me. I didn't even notice bbags before GH was introduced. No comparison.

I prefer traditional hardware. I am yet to own any GH bbag. I don't mind the GH, but I am going to miss the tessels. Why can't they have GH with tessels *rant*.

^^Good point, maybe that would have been a better poll? I too love the tassels - they're what make a b-bag a b-bag to me.

Honestly, I don't think that tassels would go well with GH. I think it would be too much going on. Just my take on it..

I love the tassles so much so RH for me.

GH is too blingy for me kinda like Fergie.

At first, I thought the GH was a tad gawdy but more and more I look at them, they really make the colors pop. Will have to go with GH.

I am a RH girl! First, I do not like gold. But I do admit a lot of PFers have AWESOME bags in GH...it's just not for me. One bag I REALLY hope they make in RH is the New Hobo style. I LOVE IT!

Hey, i just voted my choice...i still prefer the smaller hardware beneath is pewter or brass....thanks

Exactly!

Although, I would point out, I do love it on the Brief. And there are some PFers who pull it of magnificently... It's fun to look at on some people, but not anything I plan to buy.

Not crazy about the extra weight either.

My 1st, 2nd and 3rd(!!!) Bags were GH. I really didn't notice BBags until GH either. However, once I had GH I realized I needed and wanted some RH BBags too.

Although, I absolutely favor the GH!

I prefer the traditional hardware but I still think the GH is very pretty.

I like both, but for ME I like the RH. Like other's have said, the GH is too blingy for me, personally.
