Chanel Classic Flap - Small vs Medium vs Large sizes

[Bentley1]

I JUST got through this dilemma, and I'm actually STILL undecided after purchasing the black m/l lambskin in SH this past weekend. I tried on both m/l and jumbo at the store, and honestly they both worked perfectly. For reference, I am 5'5 and 115 pounds.

It all came down to how I wanted to use the bag. I already have several black chanels for daytime, so I chose m/l. Its on its way (being shipped to me) and I am very tempted to swap it out for the jumbo with ghw because I think I will use the jumbo more. So its definitely an ongoing issue with a lot of ladies!!!

I think you should definitely try both on, maybe even take a few pictures holding the bags to get a different perspective of how each size looks on your frame.

Me too went through the dilemma earlier. You won't know wat exactly make your heartbeat race b4 u try them on.

i have both the medium and jumbo. The jumbo is my everyday bag while the medium is used as an evening bag. It also depends on how much stuff u carry with you as well to decide which bag to buy.

It is best to try out the 2 sizes in the store to see which one works better on you. HTH!!

The medium is very small inside for me. Definitely go to the store and try.

what do u think?

Jumbo gets my vote. I have CC in both sizes but jumbo offers more versatility/utility.
IMO. Good Luck.

In this colour, Medium. but id suggest trying it on and going with the one that you like most

i vote for jumbo! i have cc in both sizes too. ML is more for night and special occasion. Jumbo can go from day to night.

Lovely color! If you are getting that patent bag you posted, then medium. Pantent in jumbo might be a bit much for a bigger bag.

I totally agree !

jumbo all the way!

Jumbo is my favourite size of flap, but for anything in light patent and bright colours, I'd have to say medium. I'd be terrified of colour transfer. Hence, the smaller the surface area of the bag (prone to transfer), the better!

I prefer jumbo size- but if you already have jumbo/maxi in your collection, M/L may be the way to go with this color patent. Good luck in your decision

I will go with jumbo because it is more practical for everyday uses. If you are looking for occasional bag, medium is a good choice.
