OMG, you guys! Got my Milky Way in the mail today!!!
I am honestly very much in love with this bag. The leather is just incredible. Very hard to describe how it feels. It is soooooooo soft and silky smooth. Bit like a peach, maybe? Kind of "suede-like", but without the fuzz :lol:
Seriously, if you get the chance to touch one, do it. Lol.
Only thing I'm not in love with is the width between the handles. For me it's a very tight fit getting it on my shoulder. I can, but it's not the most comfortable. Definitely won't fit on MY shoulder with a coat on. But I love the bag so much that I'll deal with that little drawback.
Some pics :love:

What a beautiful bag. I love the iridescent leather. It's so shimmery.

Looks stunning! Thank you for the description. I’ve wondered about the “feel,” of this leather every time I see a photo. I’ve imagined it to be somewhat stiff. So pleased and a little surprised that it sounds to be as lovely to touch as it looks.

Thanks, love!
I also thought it would be more structured or something.
But nope, smooshiness and fluffiness galore. The shimmer is killing me, btw...:faint:

Beautiful!! I love the Milky Way leather! It is the perfect neutral with some sparkles. And who can say no to sparkles?

You inspired me to take out this little octopus thingy charm which I am pretty sure is from the same collection (it has been so long that I don’t recall with 100% certainty). It is the only Milky Way item I have but just from these little strings of leather, I can tell the leather is special. :heart:

All of us are probably doing some searching of Milky Way bags on reseller websites right now!

Look at how beautifully it puddles. The sparkles are so magnificent. Yay for taking a chance on it! :drool:

I can't stop staring....I keep coming back to this photo!! There are so many beautiful Bals here but this to me has to be one of the most beautiful Balenciaga bags I have ever laid eyes on! (second to my FB GGH Work which is my holy grail). I hope to find one someday! :pray:
