Alright folks, saw the iridescent beiges in person today.

On the shelf:

In the hand. There are strong pink tones to the beige under bright boutique lighting

Next to the medium. The differences in construction are very obvious here, and in person. The medium has classic, well formed quilts and edges. The mini has flatter quilts, softer edging, and the grommets sink deeper into the top of the bag noticeably.

This mini’s flap was also not fully straight, which was even more obvious when worn.

My SA also had a firm, lambskin pink mini which I compared it against.

I passed on this mini today. My SA is being kind enough to let me inspect the next one that comes in.

Overall, I regret not being on the list for the medium for this bag.

thank you for this. I guess all that’s left now is for me to see it in person then decide if I’m really really into it. Have you seen the dark beige mini?
 
Does anyone have an SA that has availability for the mini flap with top handle in black? I’ve reached out to several SAs and no luck. Appreciate any insight or help. Thank you so much

They are opening another boutique downtown? That is exciting news!

Yup, I believe it's a bigger boutique inside the Hilton Conrad building on the first floor. Right next to the new Tiffany's boutique!

Any word when it'll open?! I'm hoping soon so I won't have to make the journey to Tysons (no car) :rolleyes:

OMG how disappointing... I really wanted in the mini... does anyone else have more mini beige pictures to compare the quilts. I love the medium OMG, but my wallet doesn’t love it as much
:sad:

Just picked up my gold mini cav w/ handle and I have to say, I’m a bit...shocked at how dark the gold is :/ Especially compared to the pics online. Definitely pulls more of a fall, Metiers gold than a spring/summer gold IMO. Gonna take a few days to think on it, as it does have a lot of pluses—but right now, I’m not sure she’s a keeper :sad: Maybe I’ll do a poll on IG like I did with the silver one, haha. Anyway, thoughts? TIA!
Thanks for sharing! I definitely agree doesn’t seem like a summer color to me wish it was like 21p gold.

I haven’t seen the dark beige but am super curious to see it. I have no idea if my boutique bought into it actually.

Is this the color that was posted in a WOC somewhere upthread? If so it looked really nice.

Heaven help my poor wallet...

DC resident and first-time Chanel buyer here! What's your experience been like there? Do you have an SA there you'd recommend?

I love the Tysons boutique, will PM you my SA.

Same girl, same.

It is always possible that the other minis will be puffier!

someone said it was the color of the beige chanel19 uploaded here a while back. What’s interesting is that none have uploaded a photo of it. Not even the resellers, which I find quite odd. Is that color really part of this collection? Guess we’ll just wait and see for the next few weeks
