Hi sbuxaddict,

This is what mine looks like from the side, but this bag is 20 years old (and slouchy) so hopefully someone with a newer bag can add a photo. Maybe @Gin&H or @Prada Prince wouldn't mind if they have time please?

I have emailed you, but as I said, the pillows are all handmade (and hand stuffed) so it is possible they vary slightly. Not so much in dimensions but it could have a little too much stuffing in it.
I'm more than happy to send you another (complimentary) pillow to try as this isn't something anyone has mentioned before so could well be a one off. I'm so sorry if it's not right. :sad:

Hi! Thanks for being so responsive, I really appreciate it! I have emailed you back ◡̈
Hi @sbuxaddict! I’ve noticed the sangles on mine used to be quite taut even without any insert or pillow. It has since loosened a bit after a few months. But that may not be the case with your sangles. Just thought I’d mention that since I was surprised how much effort it seemed to take to get my B all closed up.

I did a bit of an experiment and I was able to reproduce the horizontal ripple you’re referring to by pushing down on my B inferiorly (basically making it more slouchy and a wider base)but I was able to manipulated the excess material by smoothing it into the vertical folds and pressing in on both the front and back panel of the B. It could either be the pillow is a bit overstuffed or just how the natural excess material is laying. See if you’re easily able to manipulate the excess to lay vertically and if it stays that way. Perhaps a replacement one might be an option if you continue to notice that horizontal ripple.

Using both hands I was able to manipulate the excess material into the vertical folds and also by pressing the front and back panels. This did not take much manipulation or force. It was a quick maneuver.

Hope this helps!!:heart:
Hi thanks for sharing your perspective! I wonder if my bag is just too new currently and hasn't been worn in yet? I tried some of the movements but couldn't get the weird wrinkle out. Will just stick with the plastic stuffing for now and try to keep it laying flat!

Yeah agree, if you’re unable to get that horizontal fold out then it’s a safe bet to go with the plastic/air cells until you find something that works for you! Keep us posted!

Hello beauties, I want share my recent find with you: www.dearbagorganizer.com . I ordered a Birkin 25 organizer in Craie, the material is suede like Alcantara, very high quality and soft touch. The product is quite similar to 7RP, waterproof, fits perfectly in my Birkin and no indents.. prices are pretty fair and fast shipping. I'm thinking about giving the Kelly pochette organizer a try

Thanks!

I ended up ordering something different that was a better fit for my Victoria and it worked out great. It’s a good reminder for me to post some pics - I spent ages trying to source something the right size!
Hi!
I'm so glad you found the perfect insert for your Victoria! If you get a chance, would love to see! Here are my inserts that I promised to post. These come with a covered, strong foam and I use it as a "shaper" in the insert so I didn't have to buy a pillow.
E29 III Clemence in "Tosca" and E29 I Barenia
Take care!
