i just saw the picture on the Chanel mini cruise 2017 forum that the black mini is edge stitching, anyone has any idea if the white mini will have the same stitching since they're from the same collection?

can u show a side by side pic of edge stitching compared to no edge stitching?? i saw that mini and thought it was gorgeous, not sure i know what you're referring to, thanks!
The first one is edge stitching and the second one is the "inverted" stitching, the third one is a close comparison among two...

i love both!! to be honest i wasn't even paying attention and didn't even notice that!! lol!! my lambskin bags have had the inverted stitching and my caviar ones have had the edge stitch, i love it all and am just so happy to have gotten a caviar rect mini!!
Hello. I found this article from Elle Germany where I think they say the viva cuba T - shirt is going to cost around €690, but I don't speak German so maybe someone who does can confirm it

Because of the high demand some shops will only sell them with a jacket or other clothing from the collection!
I think this is outrageous! Let the people buy what they want! One of the things I don't like about Chanel. Once I wanted to but a sh caviar m/l cf and a SA admitted she could only show it to me if I bought some clothing. I wrote a heated letter to customer services.
For the prices Chanel charges they have the audacity to demand something else to be bought just to purchase one particular item...Shame on them
In my letter I said their approach cheapens their brand. If that's what they think it takes to get a customer to buy their clothes, then they don't have a good opinion of their clothes offering. I was incensed. The following day I was invited to come to buy the bag. Off putting.
That's ridiculous! I'm sorry that you have to been thru this. This is the first time i heard about such experience, even i've faced situations where my local store hold sought-after pieces (minis) in the back for they Super VVIPs (regular customers) and lied to me they didn't receive that item.
I think the sales tactics Chanel use is slowly following the footsteps of Hermes - playing hard to get, which IMO is ridiculous. Like im paying so much money and i have to 'beg' them to sell the bag to me
i have only 2-3 items on my Chanel wishlist, and once I successfully collected them all, i think i'm done with Chanel, due to the outrageous price increases and customer services.So true, and crazy. I don't know what makes someone a VIP but I had this experience after having bought 10 bags. I'm not sure what it takes, but particularly here in HK I guess there are probably people who dress head to toe in Chanel. I don't like their tactics!That's ridiculous!

maybe those VIPs buy a bag each month/week OR they buy a lot of Chanel clothes as well!? lol personally i can't afford to spend so much on clothings, i mean i wud spend mad money on handbags (not at the Hermes level yet), sometimes on shoes but not designer clothings. Zara and ASOS clothings are good enough for me
Haha. Seriously? That's ridiculous. I have some many questions right now. Is that something they usually do? Is it a world wide policy? Clearly they've priced it too low for their own liking then if they feel they have to make it more expensive; p
I don't think it is a worldwide policy, maybe just particular stores or SAs do that. At least stores i have visited in AU, HK and Bangkok didn't do that to me!
FWIW: I have NEVER experienced ANY luxury brand boutique in the United States "pull" this tactic on me.
Well here in HK the SA said it to me outright! The manager who I complained to denied its veracity but he was just trying to placate me!
