Some details are now available:

Price: $7,800
Delivery: 24/26 weeks
Material: Goatskin (per your initial request)
Handles: Croc (like Nuvolato / adjustable)
Workmanship: Flat fettuccia (like Cabat)
Color: based on what you like, they will check availability


Veneta - not available unless completely exotic

I will ask
1. Is Lido the Nastri?
2. Will it have an inside pouch
3. Will we get the plate with our initials, like in the Knot
Please count me in if it is goatskin with croc handles in a wonderful shade of purple. Thank you for organizing such a wonderful S/O, jburgh!
 
Only one new bit of information: It will have to have the caiman handles. It must have some exotic component, and the handles qualify.

I am head over heels in love with the new violet Cabat, I'm not sure I can do this one...guess it depends on how many houses we sell.
 
While we wait for the color palette info, does anybody have any intel on what Lido bags BV is already planning for the Spring/Summer 2012 collection?...don't recall seeing any on the runway.

I just paged through our S/S 2012 thread and see not see any. Anyone else?



what about matita- goatskin?

Goatskin - yes, that is approved. Color unknown and undecided.
 
Maybe if I hadn't spent about that same amount on Booker over the past couple of weeks... But unfortunately I think I will have to sit this one out.

OMG, I'm sorry! That's what happened to us this year--several thousand in vet bills would buy a great bag. Hope Booker is doing OK. Our dog is holding his own for now but the monthly medication bills are high.
 
Jburgh - maybe in the future, we can SO a piece of jewelry or accessory that could be more affordable? Like oxidized silver earrings or a shawl, etc? Price point under $1000. At some point, it'd be cool to be involved in a special order here since the BV forum is such an enjoyable place to spend time :)

yes, this would be great someday. i would love to participate, but it's out of my price comfort range. can't wait to see the final result though!
 
Thanks Jburge. This is the most exciting piece of news I have heard for the whole of 2011! I must admit that price is steep but if it is in ferro or a metallic grey, I think I am 95% in. Is the bag double woven like a cabat or is the inside lined with suede?
