SO helpful! Thank you. I think I will get it and see what I think of it in person ☺️My SA sent a photo of the charm, she’s general normal ladies build so hopefully that gives you some context!

I just saw that this collection is coming out today! Those single hamster pieces are too cute. More versatile than those pieces with all over print. I for instance love that Amazone 44 with the bunnies print, but despite the huh high price, as @despair said, I think even me as small asian woman cannot pull this off that easily… But it is too cute!With apologies to those who have seen the lookbook already: I haven’t and may be in trouble now, albeit it’s a puzzle edge 😅

I am eyeing that one, too. They had a charm a few years ago which I missed, which looks like that one. So no real new design. But I still love it!i can’t seem to find the whale shaped bag on the site though 😭
Luckily most of the bags don‘t speak to me, and those I like are just too expensive imo, besides I have too many bags anyway.The pricing feels a little inconsistent IMO. 450 GBP for the felt charms is steep, especially considering the first collection offered additional leather work and more intricate detail (think lemur charm). Agree the puzzles don't align price-wise with some having marquetry and some not. Definitely some super cute pieces but I'm not blown away tbh
This is lovely!My SA sent a photo of the charm, she’s general normal ladies build so hopefully that gives you some context!

I love this, too, wish it would golden hardware though. How is the emaille applied? The one of the webpage appears smeared…The octopus charm - they don’t feel to be very big to be honest. The key ring is the usual size of key rings and the crocodile clasp is the usual Loewe size so it’s not big (and hence rather pricey at S$750)

omg i just realized that you’re right! it does look exactly like that paula coin charm just larger 😒😒 i did wonder why they used a different whale from the ones on the bags (pebble, puzzle and tote)… but that explains it. i guess it’ll come down on what they price it for me then.I am eyeing that one, too.

super helpful insight. i too am disappointed by the lack of marquetry on the bags in this collection. did you get a chance to see the grey whale-shaped bag in person? If so, do you have any thoughts on it? It looks like it might be small enough to hang onto something like a charm but is also considered a bag and comes with straps?I am in a similar position - have seen quite a few pieces of the collection and also tried on the RTW, but the pricing is all over the place this time with some really (IMO) extortionate pricing or a higher price but less detailing (eg the octopus felt charm is pricier than the mandrake felt charm I got in the last collection and yet the mandrake charm at least had leather leaves as part of it).
Also in person many of the pieces failed to wow me - it's a fine line between whimsical kiddishness and outright a bit too cutesy and cheesy, and I don't think that many pieces hit the mark this time. Eg the Amazona 44 is positioned as a men's bag, but the rabbit print (not even marquetry!) just feels like it would require a very unique aesthetic for most men to consider.
It's not like we are not getting anything (we in the end confirmed one metal anagram charm, three tees and the whale pebble tote), but we certainly were struggling to find pieces that we felt was more worth the pricy buy-in.
It actually differs very slightly from the version that was released for the Paula’s Ibiza collection back then - slightly different fins and a more rounded belly. It also has a different strap as it was a nylon strap last time vs the leather strap for the SF one. Not a huge difference by any measure though.omg i just realized that you’re right! it does look exactly like that paula coin charm just larger 😒😒 i did wonder why they used a different whale from the ones on the bags (pebble, puzzle and tote)… but that explains it. i guess it’ll come down on what they price it for me then.
so far (due to the fact i love whales) my current list might just be the whale scarf and the whale coin cardholder. i’m still mulling over the whale jacquard strap and dice charm. sigh i guess we’ll see… i was super excited by the promos but the closer i look the more unsure i am about this release
You are right I hadn't thought about that. I need to decide if that's going to bother me although I'm more likely to use it as a catchall for small things I lose attached to the inside of the bag rather than like a bag charm. I guess they were thinking about how it looks when you hold it.I believe the bunny and the moon items have marquetry but the other items with the smaller motifs like the repeating hamsters and bunnies all seem to be just debossing. At least those that we saw in person. To me the bunny cookie pouch looks great in person, BUT the way the chain works on the pouch (for you to hang the pouch to a bag or similar) means the rabbit doesn't "sit" upright (hopefully the image explains it better than me). It's a major downside for me as I was really considering getting it for my partner.

Did you see the flamencos in person? do they feel differen quality wiset to the standard ones like last year's did? I'm leaning towards holding off on the green flamenco at least for now particularly if its just print. I've been more drawn to use the items I have with marquetry than just prints they are more tactile. Also knowing the puzzle softs are coming soon and there might be other items using that green.I am in a similar position - have seen quite a few pieces of the collection and also tried on the RTW, but the pricing is all over the place this time with some really (IMO) extortionate pricing or a higher price but less detailing (eg the octopus felt charm is pricier than the mandrake felt charm I got in the last collection and yet the mandrake charm at least had leather leaves as part of it).

I just got pics from an SA about the whale bag, there’s a charm and a bag coming out. $1600 USD for bag and $690 for charm. Also not technically part of Suna but S/S 2025
Love it! Did she by chance mention when they will be released? 😄I just got pics from an SA about the whale bag, there’s a charm and a bag coming out. $1600 USD for bag and $690 for charm. Also not technically part of Suna but S/S 2025
