19 Flap Bag Club!

Hi guys! Hopefully I will join the club soon, but before it happens I need your help! I've never been a fan of the 19 bag because I don't like gold hardware - especially so huge and loud. After 2 years Chanel finally listened to me ,and came up with the 19 with silver CC, and also the all black version is about to be released.

At first I was sure I will wait for the all black version, but now I'm having second thoughts. I'm not sure if it's not too black and too sad?

On the other hand, the silver CCs seems to be very, very light on some pictures. I know some of you have it, could you share with me more pics of this beauty? I'm considering it only in black.

Which one you think is better - silver or should I wait for the all black one ? Thanks in advance for your help, because I know nothing!

So I wish I could help with pictures but mine is all wrapped up waiting for me to open for Christmas :) I will chime in that I LOVE the silver one. I found it even more stunning in person. I don’t mind the all black one you have shown here but I think the silver one is prettier. Good luck making a decision!

Thank you! What a beautiful Christmas gift! I'm leaning towards the silver one...

I like 19 bag in general. Initially i was not in love with silver hardware. It looked strange compared to the gold, but when I saw one in person I got one. It definitely looks better in person than in pictures.

I have the same dilemma as you too! In the end I gotten the silver h/w one as the bag stands out more with the silver h/w contrast [not as loud as the aged gold and not as mute as so black] and considering that there could be another price increase when the so black is launch which I couldn't justify for that price :(

You're 100% right! I'm now decided on the silver one but I couldn't reach my SA yet. I hope I will be able to score it ASAP!

Do you know if the reversed hardware is here to stay? Will it also be in 22P?

I have no idea whether it will be here to stay, would suggest not to take chance & get it if you like it.

I don't recall seeing the reversed h/w 19 in the 22P collection info posted, you may want to check out the 22P thread?

I havn’t seen it there either :sad: I'm not going to wait with black one for sure, but I also started to like a beige one with shw for the summer.

If you end up deciding going for the so black 19, make sure to tell your SA you want it now because it will be very competitive once it comes out. Also, Chanel may tell you they no longer do reserves but if you’re able to build a good relationship with your SA through the years, your SA can still keep an eye out for whatever bag you want. At least that’s how it is with my long time SA.
