hi guys. Does anyone know if the purple iridescent color for 2017 the same as last years purple iridescent with rainbow hardware ?
Is it the same purple that comes in the miniI am sure someone knows more than me, but here is what I know, as I am on the waitlist for it in the M/L flap. It is actually called metallic purple and it is lambskin, whereas the previous bags were called iridescent, so I think it is a little different. I am anxiously waiting to see this color in person.
yes, as far as I know it is the same.Is it the same purple that comes in the mini
yes, as far as I know it is the same.
I just purchased the mini if you are a purple lover you will like/love it, at least I doyes, as far as I know it is the same.
I can't wait to see it! Do you find the color changes at all depending on the lighting?I just purchased the mini if you are a purple lover you will like/love it, at least I do
Yes it has a shimmer to it. I really wanted black, but when I saw it I immediately knew I had to have it. I love purple so it was a no brainier for me.I can't wait to see it! Do you find the color changes at all depending on the lighting?
DM it is metallic lambskin (so must be very careful with it). It does change color a bit toward the gray side when you turn it. However, if you compare it to the 16C purple with the rainbow hardware, you would notice the following:I can't wait to see it! Do you find the color changes at all depending on the lighting?

Wow. Thank you for posting this. It is beautiful. The pictures I have seen all look a bit different......this one I love.
You are so helpful and generous with your detailed descriptions, as always. Thank you, Vanana. I didn't realize that metallic lambskin would be more delicate than my classic lamb flap.....hmm, thank you for telling me. It is good information to have.DM it is metallic lambskin (so must be very careful with it). It does change color a bit toward the gray side when you turn it. However, if you compare it to the 16C purple with the rainbow hardware, you would notice the following:
(as MrsL pointed out) the 16C turns from teal to charcoal to a more silver purple (the purple color itself is a slightly "toned down" purple vs. a "jewel rich" purple (wow I so hope this actually still sound like English )
This season's I find changes more from a "silver purple -with charcoal hint" to a more rich vibrant "jewel purple" purple
Which is to say - if you don't mind lamb metallic as a material and can care for it, and you're a true purple fan - you might actually prefer this season's because the purple is very primary and then it comes with a bit of iridescent effect for fun too. it's gorgeous for sure! but not the same IMO as the 16c if you're comparing and looking for exact.
It's more like a gorgeous cousin but not sibling
hope this helps!
