Yes, the Diane Besace, worn as a clutch! Ground-breaking for Mme Macron who is dressed exclusively by Louis Vuitton. And Duclos isn’t even an LVMH brand!

Nice. JD is just across the street from her house, so a quick nip out to pick up a new bag...
That's the new Diane clutch (no surrounding hardware).
Yes, its the clutch not the besace, more sleek & rectangular. Plus no surrounding hardware as you pointed out, even with the strap detached you’d still see the frame & ring attachment point for the strap. The clutch has a chain that can be detached & it just disappears
Oh nice just looking at the interior photos of the clutch - looks like the chain strap can easily come off of those tabs.... or could be swapped for different length/style
I so very much want to be a clutch gal.

ERMAGHERD, love this color! I keep eye balling this on the JD site, but to see the color like this, I want it even more!
What do you think about the L20 size? Do you use a continental wallet or compact?
I’m usually not a pink gal, but this Diane clutch bag in Rose Ciel is beautiful.
I am also not a pink person, but this is the prettiest pink out there. I would carry this bag in the spring and summer and love every minute of it.I’m usually not a pink gal, but this Diane clutch bag in Rose Ciel is beautiful.

Right now, The Age of Enlightenment is having a moment. The loosely based historical ‘Hollywood-like’ movies, Chevalier, is coming to theaters, and Jeanne (Bécu) du Barry, debuted this weekend at the Cannes Film festival. The trailers made me think about (the man) Joseph Duclos’ ties to Louis XV. Interesting times — I like history.

And yes, to TPF’ers rolling your eyes, I recognize that the bag company has a tenuous relationship to the original Louis XV era company.

Trunkdevil,
I’m a few months away from purchasing a black Diane26. How is your black Diane holding up? Any flap creases? Any curvature of the leather on bottom corners? In seeing your beautiful blue Diane photos, I know you’d buy it all over again. I’d appreciate any words of wisdom.
Thank you!

I get to work from home tomorrow, which means I can finally unbox my just arrived Diane L26 and Pat strap and post the pics!! 
Good question. I wonder about the shipping price since only some of the UK is still EU. Did you ever try a purchase dry run to find out the final cost?
I finally took the plastic off the pat strap ends and placed it with my new Diane L26.
I’m tall and the strap is not my typical crossbody length. I do however like the thicker strap for day use.
Tbe L26 is an interesting size, small enough for evening but not too small for day use.
My ideal H is the B30 or K28, so this being smaller means being more discerning with the contents.
I wonder if I could use a L20, or if it’s too small? L20 owners is this your evening choice?
Well here are some pictures!
