Hi all :) I’ve been on ban island for some time and had to stop myself coming on TPF much to ensure I did not break my ban.

Well the ban was broken today so I am delighted to share with you all my first Delvaux… a Tempete MM in pine green for autumn. I am so happy and delighted I waited for the perfect colour before getting my first Delvaux

Thanks for letting me share.

Thank you so much @TraceySH @bagnut1 @Christofle @Searno29 for your really kind words!

This beauty was definitely enough for me to book an emergency ticket off ban island! I have been looking for the perfect Tempete for some time now, but the stock in my local boutiques have never been perfect in terms of size/leather/colour/hardware combo.

I obviously loved this one in the boutique but when I brought her back home I was spellbound by the depth of the colour. I’m so excited to wear her tomorrow i have planned my outfit to go with her regardless of the weather !

There was also the most amazing alligator Tempete on display but I think DH is booking me another one way ticket back to ban island….! :(

Hello everyone! I've loved delvaux for ages and have decided it might finally be time to make my first purchase. My only hesitation is the size. I think I want the MM, but I don't have a boutique near me so no way to try anything on. I'm 5'7 and will happily wear my vintage Chanel jumbos, but I know the delvaux is a wider bag. I've gone through this thread trying to find mod shots, but mostly the pictures are just showcasing these beautiful bags :) I'd appreciate any input! Mod shots especially if you're willing :flowers:

For reference, this is how a Chanel jumbo looks on my frame:

Are you considering the brilliant? The large is huge IMHO. I have one and love it, but it could be overwhelming.

One thing you might want to consider is weight. The larger Delvaux’s can be quite heavy so it’s something to keep in mind.

Oh yes, sorry! I'm looking at the brilliant mm. It's been a dream bag of mine. I would mostly carry it by the top handle, though I do like the shoulder strap option in a pinch.
