Identify this Balenciaga

[LostInBal]

There was a black and blue version of this courier looking bag that no one was sure when it was released. If the tags on this brown one is of any indication, it's from 2013

Can anyone help be determine the color of the day on the right? The left is what I am guessing to be a slightly faded 08 electric blue. The day on the right has thinner, dryer leather (prob agneau?) and a brighter zipper tape. I thought initially maybe outremer but there is no purple to it at all to my eye. Thoughts?

Can you post the back of the inside tags and any pocket on the mirror?

The color looks like 07 French Blue, which had gorgeous color, but the leather wasn't the greatest, though it was chevre. But it should have the old style tag without a color code, and the mirror would have a pocket.

for comparison, here's my French Blue day (sold long ago).

I think pale rose.

Look at the tag though. I doubt someone recoloured it and missed both the black and the pinkish thread. For that matter people don’t usually recolour the tag at all.

I don't understand. It's because the thread is pink and the edges are pink that I think this is a pale rose as opposed to lilac. What color do you think it is?

I honestly don't know but it just doesn't looked dyed to me. The tag matches the bag without the thread being touched. That would be impossible to do.

I don't think it's dyed either.

The leather doesn't show any signs of it. Maybe a horrible fade gone wrong?

Looks oxidized. Pale rose was never all that color-rich to begin with. But this one does looked a bit yellowed. Maybe it's the pale version of the swamp thing transformation.

It looks a lot yellowed to me. I think that's the best answer though.

If it makes you feel any better, if it WAS Lilac, the Lilac was probably all gone.
