I'm trying to decide between the Rocco and the Rockie. I like that the Rockie can go crossbody due to the longer strap, but am loving the size of the Rocco more. Haven't tried them on in person yet, but just wondering if anyone wears their Rocco as a crossbody? Is it possible? Does it look awkward? (I'm 5'4)
Alexander Wang Do you wear Rocco crossbody?

I own both, and I don't like the look of wearing the rocco crossbody. It also feels unpractical. But the rockie is fine
I do not yet own either bag (but will own the rockie soon!). But I have tried on both bags several times because I have been eyeing both for quite sometime and so anytime I'm in a department store that sells them, I always try them on!
So to answer your question, rocco sits very high as a crossbody (above my hip) and looks awkward because its a bigger bag. I think smaller bags look okay if they are higher up on the body but larger ones just look out of place. Of course this is just my personal opinion!
The rockie sits lower and since it is a smaller bag, looks better crossbody than the rocco. I was actually sold on the rocco until I saw them in person....I didn't even consider the rockie because I thought it would be too small but the rocco is a lot bigger than I thought and because of the weight and the cuteness of the rockie, I decided to go with the rockie.
Good luck!

I have the Rocco and can't wear it cross body at all.
I know the Rockie can but I don't know if the strap is longer than the one you get with the Rocco.

The Rocco isn't comfortable as a crossbody with it's strap sits to high. That being said my Rocco has the longer strap used on the Rockie so I actually carry it comfortably as a crossbody bag.
I have the Rocco in soft lambs skin leather and iridescent hardware and I love it I have had it for about 4 months and used it every day and it's amazing I am wondering though is there any where I could get a longer strap for the rocco bag so it can be worn as a cross body bag? X
Nope. I was in NYC and went to the flagship store asking that exact question. And asked if I could purchase a strap that they use on the Rockie since the Rockie can be used crossbody and the SA said it is the same length strap as the Rocco. It is just easier to wear crossbody because the Rockie is smaller. :'(
Actually the strap of the rockie is longer than the rocco. I have both, and I don't think it's about the size of the bags actually. The strap of the rocco is way too short. Hope this helps ^^.

I'm also 5'4" and bought a Rocco a few years ago. I found it was too big for what I needed and ended up returning it for a Gucci Boston instead. No long after the Rockie's came out. I ended up getting one and I find it's perfect for me. I wear it crossbody, on the shoulder or just holding the top handles. I find it fits lots and it doesn't look overwhelming with my petite frame.
Good luck and let us know what you decide!
