Hello all! I hope everyone is doing well during these complicated times! I am totally looking forward to seeing this collection in boutiques next year! :loveeyes:
I am no expert, but I can clarify a few things for some of you that might be confused with how Chanel release their every-so-popular Rectangular Mini and Mini Reissue (2.55); they release in alternate collections! Attached photos that visualize what I will say.
So, just starting from the first collection that released this year.... For the Spring-Summer Act 1 2020, or Pre-collection Spring-Summer (20P), it was Mini Reissue heaven! There were tweed and leather variations to choose from, along with the black, navy, and white cotton print unique for this season. For Spring-Summer Act 2 2020 (20S), we saw lots and LOTS of tweed variations, some lovely, bright-colored lambskin, and a novelty variation with sequins, beads, and glass pearls. Métiers d’Art 2019/2020, or Pre-Fall (20A), there was the sought-after RAINBOW Mini Reissue, the mermaid/unicorn bag! ‍♀ There were also brilliant sequins variations... For the Fall-Winter Act 1 2020, or Pre-collection Fall-Winter (20B), there were a lot of darker shades for the Rectangular Mini, all with silver hardware. This collection was never put up on the website for viewing, so I don’t have any photos from the site, but you can find attached a screenshot from a personal shopper who shared this info on IG..Finally, the Fall-Winter Act 2 2020 (20K), the most recent collection to hit the boutiques, there were more interesting variations of the Mini Reissue, leathers and beautiful tweeds to match the ready-to-wear.
Now, following this obvious pattern, the Cruise/Resort 2021 collection (21C) will have Rectangular Minis, as seen in exclusive photos and mentioned in the thread for that collection (you should all check it out! https://forum.purseblog.com/threads/chanel-cruise-20-21-21c.1031903/). The Spring Summer Act 1 2021 (21P) will have Mini Reissues, similar to 20P, and this collection, 21S, will have Rectangular Minis, similar to 20S. Since Chanel has 6 collections per year, an even number, the same collection, no matter what year, will be on the same mini bag rotation...
*PHEW! :whut:
I really, REALLY hope this makes sense, would love to hear from you if it did!
I do have quite a lot of questions, specifically regarding which colors will release for certain styles of handbags I am interested in purchasing...
Anyways, I hope everyone is keeping safe. Have an amazing day or night!

Thanks for posting this! Any idea when So Black minis will be released again? I think the last time was in 2017 (not sure which collection). I’ve been patiently waiting for this bag

Does anyone know if 21s will have brown minis? Does anyone have pictures of the brown that is coming or know if it is a rich chocolate brown?

I’m really hoping for puffy quilted rich chocolate brown with silver hardware.

Yes my SA does have info on the mini’s. Are you just looking for regular mini’s in lambskin? There will be dark beige, blue, pink, black, white, yellow, orange, gold, metallic pink - ton of them for 21S.

The new mini with handle (classic handle) will be available in iridescent lambskin, metallic caviar, and shiny caviar.

yes this has always been the case every year. seasonal Reissue items and seasonal Classic items alternate and never come out in the same collection. classic minis have always been in the xxS, xxB and xxC collections. so if you couldn't find any u liked that season, everyone would just eagerly wait for the next round and quickly put their names down with their FAs for them. mini squares typically don't make an appearance in Cruise.
the new Reissue mini first made an appearance in 19A.
same goes for the other items like CCH, Trendy, Gabby, Camelia items etc. always been the same every year in the same collections, alternate etc.
however things seem to be changing perhaps, or maybe just that 20B is a "lost" collection. who knows what will happen with 21P.

Thank you very much @SB623 and @theknees As I am trying to understand..

Does this mean that all classics (mini’s, reissue, coco handles etc) will be featured in classic colors and variations every other season ie classic colors appear xxS, xxB, and xxC collections?

Whereas seasonal pieces such as tweed, sequins, etc in mini’s, reissue’s and classic flaps will appear in xxP, xxA, and xxK?

Thank you for this clarification. Understanding this would be very helpful and is certainly very interesting.
