The Winsley - what do you think?

Hi ladies,

As many of you, I'm no fan of Coca's new designs, and his take on the Bayswater is simply criminal in my opinion.

However, I just received a promotional email from Mulberry, featuring among other, a new design called the Winsley.

I can see it's a Celine Trio dressed up as a Mulberry, but nonetheless, somehow this design does speak to me!

I think it looks much nicer than the Trio, more luxurious - the only thing is the hardware is probably a bit too shiny-yellow golden for my liking, but maybe if it came with different colour hardware at some point, I might consider it!

What do you think, ladies?
 
I like the leather , not sure about the style. The leather and chain strap doesn't work for me. I haven't seen them IRL though. It looks too wide at the bottom. I prefer the trio or Chloe Faye.
 
I'm not keen, I think it's just too similar to MK's version which has been out a while. Nothing wrong with mk but I think the Cheyne is much nicer, more original and the lock is surprisingly lovely.

I have seen this bag and really like it. It came down to the Cheyne vs the Winsley. I chose the Cheyne but I still like this just as well. It's a great bag and the leather is beautiful.
 
I just don't think it's a £1k bag! The shape is very wide at the bottom, but what I found the strangest is that two of the zips close to one end and the other one to the other! (if that makes sense)
 
I saw this a few weeks ago and was trying to decide between this in clay and the medium lily in dark beige. I think the Winsley is a really nice style, and looked lovely on, but what swayed me over the the lily was that like you, I though the hardware was too yellow for my liking. But other than that I think it's one of the better 'new' bags!
 
Thanks everyone for your input and comments!

I wasn't actually aware of the MK bag when I wrote this post, but seeing how very similar the designs are, I'm now a bit put off too, even if the Mulberry leather is much nicer.

The thing I just don't get, is how can Mulberry allow this to happen?
