Well I'm home but it's already dark. As promised the first crappy cell phone pic... more to come when there's daylight! :smile:

Congrats again on your gorgeous jacket! It looks like it's the right fit from the pic you posted. What do you think re:size? Does it feel right?




And thank you so much everyone for your kind comments!:flowers: I truly am blessed to have found many of my HG when it comes to Bal jackets! I think I still want the gray one ... :graucho: and the quilted one ... :shocked: Basically, I am doomed!:lol:



And OMG!!! Geraldine'd jacket = :cloud9:
 
I was waiting for my quilted jacket to arrive to take a group photo of my jackets but, long story short, I don't think it's happening so here is a pic of a Bal jacket family reunion :lol:
H_addict ~ amazing collection :faint:!! May I ask...

Do you find harder to keep the light color ones from staining??

Also do you need to size down on your quilted jacket?

TIA :cutesy:
 
Yea, I'm pretty disappointed and now concerned about the quality.
I didn't size up, because the jacket actually fits, I just can't zip it. In fact, the arms are a little loose, it's underneath my arms that feels the slightest bit snug, but I think it's because it's new and not broken in. It's not so tight that I can't comfortably move and lift my arms. It feels great across the shoulders and back which is where I was afraid it might be too small.

I'll take a couple pics of the color in a minute - have to boot up my laptop

I am so sorry that this happened to you. I have never seen that happen before. I think it really must have been a fluke. I have 7 motos and 2 quilted motos and the quality is really good on all of my jackets. Erica will make it right. I have purchased 6 of my motos from her and never had any problems. I can't wait to see your new jacket when it arrives.
 
I can only assume, but I imagine it's because she isn't a Balenciaga boutique with a stock of garment bags for their RTW line. My jackets from BALNY or Costa Mesa have always come with a garment bag. I've never received a garment bag from any department store or independent small boutique for my Balenciaga purchases, either, but I can only speak for myself. For the difference between $2650 and $1995 or $1775 or whatever, you can get a much nicer jacket sized leather storage bag at Container Store or somewhere. I prefer the ones I've bought myself.

Totally agree! I haven't purchased any jackets from the Balenciaga boutique near me but have purchased 3 of my jackets from department stores and none of them came with Balenciaga garment bags. I don't use them anyway but for the price difference the garment bag wouldn't be a big deal.

Thank you megt10! You are always so helpful! I am eyeing the beige color on hgbag, but worry about getting it dirty.:shame:
 
H-AddicT:Such a beautiful collection, i know i also love the different styles and leathers from all the black one.None of them look like the same, so i am not hoping that they will make a black with rosegold zippers, because i am sure i also would want this!!!


South of France:You look amazing in your new jacket!!!The ardoise is such a neutral colour.I would buy it, if i did not have the canard and some of blue jackets, so that will be too much in the same coulour family.

Thank you! It feels right. I guess I'm in between the 40 and 42. I don't know how much difference there is, but I can move in the 42, zip if needed (although it looks a bit tight), and my shoulders have enough space. The downside is, there is a bit of leeway across the middle of the back, it's not totally fitted there, so I'm guessing I could size down to a 40, not zip, and hope my shoulders still fit, at least when I just wear a light top.
Soooo, having two jackets would really be perfect :lol::nuts::sweatdrop::faint:

Okay see for yourselves... (hides)
