Show me your Plumes - An Ode!

Cross-posting from the Web Finds thread....this Plume!! I am so tempted....someone please buy this Vibrato treasure.
I took comparison photos of a plume 28 and 32 for a friend and decided to post here too to show difference in size.
I have both sizes too. I always think my 28 can carry as much as the 32 minus the extra cardigan/sweater/CSGM I often want. Plus, I can get a bottle of water in either, but the 28 won't close. This is why the 28 actually translates as a good work bag (I carry a cross-body too) and the 32 better for day trips.
…..revisiting these beauties, thanks for the eye candy.
Happy New Year!@DoggieBags I love your comparison pix! Here are some more, of 2 of my Plumes: 28 in ebene porosus lisse & 32 in blue jean epsom. To me the 28 is sheer perfection in terms of its size & proportions - so delicate & refined while also being amazingly functional - but I agree with @papertiger that the 32 is good for day trips because of the added capacity (mine can fit a very small sweater AND a very large iPad). Speaking of which, does anyone have a travel Plume, & if so, do you have comments/pix to share?
Hi everyone! I'm never in the Hermes threads but I just read all the pages here and love the enthusiasm for this classic understated bag! I have a vintage plume 32 I'd love to share that I got back in August from The Real Real at an incredible price. I love the aged brass hardware. There is some slight wear on the corners and the zipper pull. The color was listed as Bleu Nuit in Togo leather. I fell in love with the color right away. Thanks for letting me share!
Congratulations! She's beautiful! Underrated yes but beautiful
Oooooh that’s so gorgeous! Looks like you can shoulder carry it too? Always a bonus!
Thank you!! Actually, I tried putting it on my shoulder and I have a very average build...it's just too tight for me. It'll be hand or crook of arm carry for me and I'm ok with that.
