Leoleila Leopard Shawl

[toujours*chic]

Cavalier Girl, I have the LV that rocker chic has, and I am wait listed for the purple LV with my local LV boutique AND special ordered for the natural leo leila with my Local H SA. . . The LV one is becoming harder to find as well

Toujours Chic, I think the Miroslava thread may have action pics of the different LVs. As yet, I haven't seen any action pics of the Leo Leila, but the coloration of the natural one is similar to leopard print by Valentino or Alaia. . . the white should make the piece pop. . .

Katel, Tankertoad, Guccigirl, any chance of action pics please ? If you guys see an action pic with any of us, please pm me. . . I have never seen this scarf in real life

Here is a pic of me in the LV sprouse -- as a dress - from mai tai/doloresmia's instructions of GM as dress - opening in the front

imo, brown and black, even on a white ground, do not "pop"....I think you just made my point that there are other labels with similar leopard print pieces.... the orange is the only one that really breaks free from the pack and is an Hermes statement piece, n'est-ce pas?

the LV is a completely different animal- all of the edges are fringed (will they unravel?) and the weave is very loose; also, the look calls for ths shawl to be crinkley- if it is dry cleaned, you need to make sure it is not pressed flat or it could ruin it. The SAs at the LV at SCP talked me out of the leopard in any color saying it was common and a lot of labels were making it- they were suggesting the SS roses as a better selection as it is more unique. Only problem is, the SS roses give me a big headache. The purple and the anthracite SS leopard are very dark and do not pop at all.

There's one at my store and it's out on display! There could even be a couple more in the drawer! I'm not 100%, but I think I caught a glimpse of Orange.

Sigh...the story of my life! Thanks for letting me know, Cavalier Girl, now I won't become obsessed with finding something that is not available!!

I was told that when the other colors were offered at Podium, the pink wasn't among them.

Ooooh, Katel, what a fab collection you have, thanks for sharing those pictures with us! As far as "popping" goes, in my view, different colors will "pop" on different people and different colors will flatter different people. I don't get the pronouncements of "popping" in a vacuum...a color can look wonderful on one person and look rather plain on another. And that's what makes the world go around... (my lesson for today!)

Note the orange is orange and BLACK and brown ( I thought it was purple from the pictures) and the green is green and natural and BROWN, it looked green on green to me from the pictures.
Anyone have an action shot with the green?
