Constance 18, in noir Epsom phw, should I take it guys? Or wait for box and ghw? Help!

[lukems]

Hi guys, need help choosing a Constance combo. Which leather should I put on my wish list? I would love a box calf but do u guys recommend Epsom or evercolor if I were to get it? Also can’t decide between noir and graphite or another gray neutral! Help! Also rghw, ghw, or phw with noir? Is phw with noir too stark? Thank you!!

If you want the ultimate classic I would suggest a Black Box C18 with either GHW (iconic/ timeless/ l'original) or PHW (modern/ chic/ edgy).
I believe Box is still push offer, so I'm not sure how your store works regarding this request.

Epsom is hardy, Evercalf is a great, smooth alternative.
Only you would know if grey makes your heart sing more, and which hardware suits you best.

why struggling so much while there's no offer yet? They won't give you options to choose, just take what they offer or keep waiting...

They offered a black Epsom phw, should I take that or wait for box?

I would take black epsom phw. Silver hardware against black is very modern looking and chic. Meanwhile black against ghw is more classic and feminine. And epsom to me is like caviar leather in Chanel, so sturdy and a workhorse.

But if you really, really prefer box, then wait. Have you seen the bag in person? Did it make your heart sing?

Only in photos! But I have an Epsom in etoupe and palladium and I’m thinking of getting a mini DC gold with gold…

As an aside, do u think a gold with gold mini Constance or a gold with gold della cav? 😊😊
Thank you!

I’d love a box calf black Constance or Kelly 28 tho! 😍😍😍

Wait until you get an offer and see the bag. If you love it immediately, then take it if not, you know to wait. I am a die hard box leather fan, and I own plenty of it, but my epsom ones are pretty carefree. I’m not a fan of the Constance, and I prefer the original mini Della cav to the new one (new is kind of like a DC elan with straps attached to the sides, not back)

I think of PHW as more modern and casual; gold as more classic. But gold is certainly having its moment, especially with those who didn’t grown up with moms wearing a lot of YG

Wait a minute…. THIS is why I’m a PHW girlie?

I love box, but as a Constance owner, I would choose Epsom for this bag. My Constance is in tadelakt, also a soft leather, and I always have to be so careful when I open or close it to not scratch the bag. My next Constance will only be in a durable leather.

Hmmm ok thanks guys!! Wondering if I should just buy on the second hand market…. What styling tips do u guys have for Constance 18 black with silver tho? Or do u guys think rose gold hardware is more beautiful? It is a rather sporty bag tho.. so maybe phw is cool… decisions decisions!!
