I have finally settled on the disco bag but can not pick a colour! I saw a lady in Toronto - looking so casual with black. I like the idea of red as a pop but wonder if it's too much. I like nude for summer but wonder if the colour is too light? There is a bright purple online that looks fun but I feel it would pass quickly. I have a lot of black and brown in my collection already. Rose would be pretty but not sure if any will come along new again. Can you help me out? What is the best or most desired colour in your opinion?

I think that Gucci makes such a gorgeous RED bag! Red is great for year round too. However, maybe check your wardrobe and see how outfits you can envision wearing the red with. Black and beige bags are readily available and I really do feel the Gucci red is beautiful [emoji3]

I had the same dilemma before Christmas! I really loved the grape colour, the rose beige and the red but ideally would have loved a navy or dark brown in order to match with my wardrobe. I can't seem to find out how often new colours are introduced and in the end went for the black. It is lovely and I know I will use it often. I do not have a big handbag collection and this is my first "proper" designer bag but I can see myself buying one in another colour sometime soon!

Very difficult decision. I have it in champagne, red and rose beige because it is such a great little bag. The red is my favorite and it is beautiful and not too much, if you know what I mean. :smile1:

I was between red, black, and beige when I got my Disco this summer. I ended up picking the rose beige which is a gorgeous year round nude that goes with everything. I decided to pass on the black because while it is absolutely gorgeous, there are so many small black bag options and the red and beige seemed like the two colors that were unique. I ultimately ended up choosing the rose beige color because I wasn't sure if I would wear a red bag although I think red looks gorgeous on other people.

I'd say since you have black and brown bags already, you should go for either red or possibly metallic. Both colors would be nice year round and add a fun pop of color to an outfit. I have a metallic pewter one and it has held up so well, and the color goes with everything. Good luck with your decision.

If you can try them on in-store, if you can't, draw the 2D dimensions on a piece of paper and colour it, hold it up in front and to the side of you. New colours come out every season (so far) but don't lose out on the bright red if you think it'll be a contender by waiting, it is very popular.

If you are thinking safe v pop (a position I was in recently with another bag) think if you have another blk/brwn same size/function. If not buy safe, if yes, be brave - just take your time.

Good for you, deciding to get a Disco, it's such a lovely bag. So practical and easy to use.
I first bought the Disco in red, it's just irresistible in red and it's the most gorgeous shade of red.
I loved it BUT I didn't use it as much as I thought I would and I realised it was because, for me, it was too much with the logo and the pop of red.
So I bought one in black and I am so glad I did, I use it all the time.

Papertiger's comment is great advice though: "If you are thinking safe v pop (a position I was in recently with another bag) think if you have another blk/brwn same size/function. If not buy safe, if yes, be brave - just take your time."
