yeah.....it would look too big on you I think.....I am sorry to say. I mean, the tempete really is your best option here. I love the brillant but I do like the tempete more b/c it's more edgy and practical?
Yes you are right. Thank you so much for your time and help.
I would go for mini (or vintage pm) and of course Tempête MM too, lol
 
Also kind of debating this one....what do you guys think of the color? Would greys/ blacks be better than browns/ taupes? Thank you in advance for any opinions. It's a monster purchase :smile:
Well you know how much I love Delvaux, but frankly this range of colours looks muddy rather than rich. The cool tone of the hardware doesn’t help. :sad:It might suit a very pale baby-blonde, or certain colours of sable fur, but otherwise no. Think the grey/black would stand the time test better in this “spotlight” look.
Do let us know what you decide.

I am going with this one instead!!! It has a metallic glaze in the grooves that's sort of a silver? I am dying since I love purple!

I die! Much more classic, but with a twist - what Delvaux does so well. The way they treat exotic skins is without comparison IMO. I saw this bag in navy with gold glaze, and it is stunning.
Congrats!
Oh I would love to see it in the navy/ gold. And I agree, NO ONE does exotics like Delvaux! Not even close! I will get next week and post pics :)

Yes it does fit but NO it's wayyyyyy smaller than a medium Lady Dior. IMO the mini Brillant is not in any way a daily bag. It might fit a phone, slim card case, car keys and sunglasses in a fabric case, but not much else. The difference between the Brillant MM and Mini is like 2-3 sizes down (like they need a PM size or something).
Hi, if you don’t mind would you please show some inside pictures of Brillant mini, like how you fit iphone plus and what can fit inside. I would be very thankful. :)
 
Hello!
Also wondering if any European or UK ladies can share the price of a Tempete mini in Belgium, France, UK? Are the prices cheaper in Belgium rather than France even though both are in euros?
Also would love to know prices of the tempete mini in exotic leathers as well!

I have a micro tempete but i’m itching to also get one a size up. I bought my first from a boutique in my country (Taiwan) but it’s very overpriced here, even more expensive than the US prices.
 
Do you know if it ever came in a larger size or just the mini?
I saw Libellule in the Brillant and Tempête models, both in mini. Think the Tempête showcased the skins better. Was told that the labour-intensive process to dye the skins made it uneconomical to create the bag in larger sizes. That said, have you ever inquired about a special order from Delvaux? I haven’t, but know they exist.
