All About the Giant Sphere Bag - what do you think?

the sphere is interesting, but somehow it looks a little strange when hand-carried. On the shoulder, it definitely looks much better. I wonder what happens if say you put in a magazine, will the corners of the mag jut/cut into the sphere 3/4 down the bag, KWIM? hmmm.....
 
Thanks for the pics, the best spy pics i've come across!

If it came in RH i'd buy one. Out of interest how much does the Sphere retail for?

Hi! I asked my SA the last time I spoke with them and it's $1595...which will be my most expensive bag ever! If I don't love the hell out of my Violet Sphere I'll be returning it for a Flat Messenger with the curved top. I'll shoot pics when I get it and we'll see...
 
kimberf, thanks for the visual! Now I know what the Sphere reminds me of...those old hatboxes and traincases that my grandmother used to lug around whenever she traveled. Mind you, back in the 60s she'd lug those things around with her on a week's trip to HK from the Philippines -- a MASSIVE 2-hour flight. Goodness!

I think that the Sphere is a cool bag, and takes some getting used to. I certainly didn't expect it to be THAT big, but there you go. I don't see myself getting one, though, 'cuz I rather like my bags having angled bottoms.

kimair, as usual, your spy photos are VERY MUCH APPRECIATED! :yes: Seeing you wearing that coat just makes me miss Bay Area weather all that much more!


Haha, I think that's why I like it so much! Thanks for the pics!
 
Thank you so much for posting the pics!!!!:tup:

It really isn't my cup of tea, either. I didn't really like it when I first saw the pics, but now seeing its actual size, I like it even less.
But I love seeing the pics...more the merrier!!
 
Really? With RH? I didn't think they were making it. Do you recall the retail price?

ETA: I just called them and they said they only had it in Black w/Giant Gold Hardware, and the price is $1,595. I asked a mod to go ahead and update the Dimensions and Prices for All Balenciaga Styles with this info, since I think we've got sufficient confirmation of the price now.

Maybe I am crazy but I swear I saw one with RH. :wtf: Maybe is was sold - I saw it Saturday afternoon. Sorry, I did not check the price.
 
Just want to ask what colors available for Sphere style? I am not so familiar with this style? Is it only one size for sphere?? And also I would like to know how much is it now?? Thanks!! I would appreciate if you could post pics of the size. Thanks again!!! :confused1:
