I have two serial/model numbers and i need help finding out the year and model please. First is 168026.2123, I know this is the mid afternoon tote, but I don't know the year and how would I be able to find out the exact color if I bought second hand. The second bag is 235216.10001.D.535269, the only thing i know about this bag is Velo. I purchased this at Bloomingdales on sale because the paperwork was all missing. I would like to know the year and if there is more to the model name. I have tried to look up the numbers on the reference library but nothing makes sense to me I am bad with all of this information I am sorry for being so daft.

If you post pics of the bag and both sides of the interior tags someone may be able to help. Style numbers alone aren't enough.:smile:
 
Hello,

Can anyone help me with the year and name is this bag?

It's my very first luxury bag. I had always known that I wanted a Balenciaga "motorcycle" bag as my first purchase. But after no luck on the preloved auctions, I had fallen out of love with the bags.

Until one faithful evening in 2012, waaaay past my bedtime. I came across a Modnique auction for this bag, ending in 3 hrs with no bids. I figured it couldn't hurt to bid. I clicked, and went to bed. And the next morning this baby was mine. I was so happy because the quilting was so unique.

I get compliments on her everywhere I go. I want to finally do my baby justice, by being able to introduce her better, by rattling off all her specs... Is that crazy of me?

Thanks so much!
