As far as I know the Crimson & Cobalt Patent Willis bags will be out for the holidays--November I think I recall hearing a while back. I have style numbers, but DD pics are not posted yet, though I am imagining them to look the same in terms of color as the Madison MSB & Sophia bags from a couple years back, if you recall those.

Style numbers are:

21244 Regular Patent Willis
21246 Mini Patent Willis
22061 City Patent Willis

Yeah, I also heard Isabelle was coming out in that same crimson patent. That is what I am waiting to check out.
 
I will have to take a look at the Juliette in person before deciding. For you ladies who have been on here a while, remember we were all upset about Sabrina being deleted but most of us grew to love Audrey. Sophia, admittedly, was one of those bags that resonated with the majority of members right away. And I think it is a fantastic shape and like it better than Audrey and Sabrina. But personally I am a little Sophia'd out...I currently have 10 of them so I am ready for a change. Hopefully Juliette is not that bad and will grow on us.

With regards to Juliette's long shoulder strap, I am going to risk being chastised and say that the bag is meant to be a satchel and carried on the arm or hand and not over the shoulder. Same with Sabrina, Audrey, and Sophia. Remember how horrible Sabrina looked when carried by the long strap? Completely changed the shape into that bat wing look! I think Coach adds the long strap as an option if you periodically need to be hands free but it is not meant to be shoulder bag per se.

Bags like Isabelle and Maggie are true shoulder bags. Though they can be carried on the arm they look better carried on the shoulder. The reverse is true for the satchels.

You have good points. I personally never liked Sabrina or Audrey, but loved Sophia. I don't think I will ever like Juliette by the looks of the pictures because the top of it reminds me of Sabrina and/or Audrey. :(

All good things must come to an end and they have done Sophia in so many combinations that there isn't anything else left to do! lol. The same can be said about a couple other Madison styles ;)
 
I saw the Juliette today at FP. This is the redo of Sophias. A bit larger, which I like, but I didn't care for the style of it. The Juliette doesn't have the classy, sleek appeal as Sophia, but it's roomier.
It comes in black/brass, magenta, mahogany, and Jade ( may have more colors ). I'm assuming the jade will pretty much resemble the emerald in the duffels as the magenta is a tad bit deeper than the fushia in the duffel. Jade and mahogany aren't available yet but the black and magenta are at my FP store, in their back room, as they're not part of the current floorset.

Thanks Bob Bonz! I've been wanting to see this bag better. That blue is lovely! Is it just me though, or does this bag look a little strange when carried as a shoulder bag?? Like the little bat wings come up??!
