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!

the detail on that Passementerie strap is incredible :love:
and to think it costs as much as a strap from H in plain leather

The detail is exquisite. I didn't know how I would feel about the blue underside, but the inside flap of the Diane 26 is the same blue leather so the details become cohesive.
I do look forward to the release of other straps, I hope this is an area they intend to expand upon.

Gorgeous - the detailing looks almost military, like a dress uniform !
Amazing how well that strap goes with a classic black bag…. I’d have been nervous about mixing the 2, but you certainly made an excellent choice

The jealousy I am experiencing right now, lol! Congrats @Loganz. That is absolutely stunning. The detail is just… well, it’s art.
 
It's beautiful. I would personally prefer with phw.

I also think that the colours, e.g. BdC or Acajou are far more than just a normal leather options in Cuir Harmonie
I hadn’t thought about the hardware until you mentioned it. The ghw (brass) shows-off the beauty of the croc, and the unique hardware. Phw would complement the croc’s color palette (in a minimalist monochromatic way), showing off the beautiful skin. Both hardware colors would work with this bag, yet each would achieve a different effect.
I’m a phw fan, so I’m biased.:smile:
