This bag is so fabulous. I’ve used mine for two days now and I’m falling more and more in love with it. Congratulations. She’s beautiful

Thanks you so much. This bag is definitely a 'she' too, you're right
. I am so pleased to hear your experience. Simplicity, beauty, the glow of the goat leather and that Gucci 'thing', I am not surprised.
I can transfer my Loewe pouch + phone from H Evie to Med Aphrodite and I'm ready to go.
I tried the purple (just in case
) not as violet as the stock pics, somewhere between H Anemone and Parme, and was also so GGorgeous. This shade of red was too perfect (and a gap in my wardrobe) I am very happy 
.
I transferred all of my things from my Evelyne also. This bag truly is phenomenal. I don’t gush much but I keep looking at it thinking, this is so pretty. Lol.Thanks you so much. This bag is definitely a 'she' too, you're right

Taller women, even average men, I don't think you'll have any problems. The longer strap is pretty generous.
Shorter women, you may have to put an extra hole in the strap to make shorter where needed.
Edited to say: Everything H Evie 29 to Med Aphrodite fits perfectly.

Black Large are now also sold out online UK.
If you want the Large size, based on past experience, I think they will just made available for one season (Cosmogonie AW22) and there aren't that many around (relatively speaking).

The black and cream are so chic as well. I’m absolutely in love with this bag. It’s almost worth repeating in a neutral tone.
I’m so tempted after seeing the green Aphrodite in store. I don’t have any Gucci bags yet, so this would be my first. I have a few of the 2000’s Balenciaga and love the chevre leather. I don’t have any green or red bags this far, what do you think is the most unique yet still versatile?
Somehow this gorgeous bag escaped my attention until now. I'm guessing that it's because my recent online shopping has been in search of a bag that is hobo-ish/slouchy and can be worn both crossbody and hand/shoulder. Which is incredibly annoying because that's exactly what the Aphrodite is!

I noticed @papertiger 's post on the 2022 resolution thread and ended up here. I am obsessed! I always love a good red and this one is particularly special.
I don't currently have any Gucci bags in my collection (though I have previously had a couple) but am rejoining the club with a holiday gift for myself.
Thanks all for the info and sharing!!

I already have 2 (Hermes) bright green bags, another 2 jade green bags (Gucci shoulder and another) I even have a Gucci Bouvier (like a Jackie but flatter like the Aphrodite) also in green. I have dark red bags but I didn't have a bright red bag. The red is so lush.
There are more red Med available than there are green (or purple) so if you want the green (or purple) you may have to hurry if that's the colour of your choice.

I was also told the leather with soften a little with wear (fine by me). All I can say is I am very happy, 1) coz it's so beautiful - and the perfect colour 2) I know I'll wear it.
Thanks!! The green is completely sold out in the EU. They told me to check back again in February… but I think it’s definitely what I’ll go with.
I don’t have any green bags—I didn’t anyway. I went with the green and I am in love. I wear a lot of neutrals but love pops of color with handbags. I’ve worn this out to dinner with an all black dress, with jeans and a brown graphic tee, with a navy sweater—the possibilities are endless. Green is not my favorite color but has been growing on me the past year or so and when I saw this bag, I couldn’t pass it up. I’ve received many compliments even from SA’s from other luxury designers. I was between the green and white. So happy with this purchase. Hope this helps.
Yeah looking at how the store availability has quickly changed rather significantly (red is "Limited Availability" or nothing, only "Available" at Saks Boca) it looks like this is an "act now" item especially if it's desired before holidays.
