Hi everyone,

I was wondering if someone could tell me the correct color of the balenciaga bag that I'm looking for: a slightly dark blue bag with purple undertone. I'm thinking of these 3:

1. Bluette
2. Outremer
3. Bleu Lavande - although they say that this one is more purple than blue?

I don't know anyone personally who owns these colors, but based on the pictures from the internet some of these are what I'm searching for. I would prefer if it's from early years (2010 or earlier) but any year would do. Sorry, I'm a newbie on Balenciaga so I would want my first one to be perfect :smile1:

Thanks!

Hi there,

All of those colors are a match, but what shade of blue are you looking for? There is also ink and officer which are darker blues. Outremer is bright cobalt and blue lavande is more purple than blue. I have never seen bluette, but it seems more of a medium, semi-bright blue.

Hi,

I like the medium blue but just a tad bit darker on the side (but not as dark as ink). I've attached samples of my preferences. The 1st is the one that I like most and owner said it is Bluette. The 2nd one is Outremer, which I don't think captures the actual color since it's suppose to be bright cobalt. The last one is supposed to be blue lavande which I think is inaccurate since it's suppose to be more purple.

Would you say that the color I'm looking for is Bluette?

The 1st one may be bluette, but the color seems too purple. It is not BL though. The second one is also not Outremer or BL, so it may be bluette, but again very purple. The last one is BL. This is what Bluette looks like. It may be the light that people are taking these photos in. I know I had trouble with the last ones you posted as well.

Oooh, so that's what bluette looks like. Pretty! But it seems to have no purple hint on it so it will be my 2nd choice instead. I think you're right, light greatly affects the pictures so it really confuses viewers. -Sigh- Looks like I will have to keep an eye out for BL as it's the one that fits most of my preferences.

Thanks so much Saira! :laugh:

Hi Saira - It was suggested that I (re)post my bbag here for your opinion and help, if possible. This Black GSH 21 Part Time with a single zipper pocket inside came to me without any tags or other identifying information. The ladies in the "Authentic this Balenciaga" thread thought that maybe you could help me identify the year of the bag. It's been narrowed down to F/W 2008 to F/W 2011. This is my first bbag, so any help and info you can provide regarding the year or anything about this bag would be greatly appreciated. Let know if you need additional info or pics. Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, the ladies at the AT thread are correct that it is between 08 and 11. Unfortunately, I can't narrow it down any more. My guess would be 08, but it is simply a guess. Sorry I couldn't
Be of more help.

Hi Saira,

I came across a RH "W" black City (F/W 2006).
But when i check the color chart, i can only see black in pony hair.
So was black chevre City produced in F/W 2006? Or it must be recolored?

Hi Peace. I'm not sure I understand your question. Black RH cities have been produced every year since 03. In 2006, the bags were still Chevre. The change happened in 2008. I hope I understood your question correctly.
