Hmmm, I missed this...it was announced on July 31st that Alexander Wang will not be renewing his contract as creative designer with Balenciaga, reportedly to devote himself full-time to his namesake brand. Word is that he's also on the brink of acquiring his first outside investor...it'll be interesting to see what happens next!

It will be interesting. I am a huge Bal fan and AW fan but I feel like he didn't make the Bal brand any better and maybe possibly even worse. I also felt that his own namesake brand wasn't exciting me much anymore either, I hope this will mean good things to come in the future.

HI Ladies;
I'm a newbie here in the forum. but thanks all for so much great info.
Anyone owe a Rockie in blush ? I kinna hesitated on this color or latte... seems latte is a more popular color ? but always wanted a pink in my collection. ( no beige as latte as well, so that's worth consider as well)
I just lucky enough to got a Mansur Gavriel bucket in Rosa pink, so really in delimma now if I need to keep this rosa, or sell it and get a AW blush or latte.
Any suggestions , girls ?

I think you should get the rockie in latte! The blush colour is nice but the wear on it is not as nice as on the latte. Also i think the latte is a more versatile it goes with both dark and light colours! :smile1:

Hello everyone!

new to AW but have been looking around for my second AW bag after my prisma marion cross body in black with rose gold HW, am looking at possibly the small Lia in grey with gold HW as it's understated but not sure how the hardware will hold up? Please let me know if you own one and how you're finding it...I'm not too certain about wanting to own a rockie or rocco as I've read it can be a heavy bag to carry

thanks for any advice/tips !!

I thought this was silver hardware so I asked the seller she said no it was white gold??? maybe she meant pale gold? and if it is pale gold did they even make the cupcake studs with pale or like she said white gold?

Didn't you own a black Rocco with silver hw at some point? The leather on those older bags were great...so soft.

I briefly owned a black Rocco with pale gold hw...I still have a pic of the studs (see below). I can definitely see where the two (pale gold & silver) could be confused in pictures.

Yes I did and I regretted selling it it was amazing leather... Thank you for the picture.. Would you say it could be mistaken for silver? It can in the picture :)

I am a silver fan...so irl I preferred the silver and not the pale gold. But if you search the threads the pale gold was very popular and quickly became hard to find. Many commented that it appeared silver.

There is currently a listing for a Rocco with the light/pale gold studs. It hasn't been authenticated but it has great pics of the studs...much better than my pic. :)
