Hi.

If this bag is an outlet bag which I suspect it may be, the colours used aren't always ones used for the bags for that season. Plus our colour charts for the last few years are nowhere near complete. Wish I could be more helpful.

She said it was bought in the UK so maybe it was from an outlet like Bicester? A couple more pictures attached. Sorry these are the best she could do. She said she couldnt take a pic of the B under the zip head. It also doesnt come with a mirror.

If it’s an outlet bag, does it make it less valuable or something? ;)

Thank you so much xx

Unfortunately those pics don’t help. Plus still no rivet photo. The tag back looks OK but given the lack of pics I’m afraid I can’t personally authenticate.
Outlet bags aren’t necessarily worth less IMO. We’re assuming tags with the additional “O” on the tag back are outlet, as their hardware, style, and/or colours usually don’t match the season their tags indicate. I have an “O” bag myself and it’s authentic IMO.

Thank you for this! Really helps a lot.
I will have a think and if I get the bag, I will just post my own pictures of it to further confirm. xx
 
Please post pics of the back of the zipper head and the rivets. Reference this post number when you repost please.

hello, thank you for your answer, please find other pictures ... thank you very much for your help,

best regards,
