goooooorgeous! thanks as always for the pics
not wanting to sound greedy, but you should make a family pic with all your pretty bags 
that's great, I still haven't seen one IRL. And hopefully it's easy to fold back up?
The bags are super easy to fold up - I think easier than the nylon. Although mine doesn't ever get folded up since I'm always using it. It is my FAVORITE bag! Even better IRL after a few uses. It just keeps getting softer and more supple.
Thanks for the awesome review RERE!
I purchased a Burgundy tote back in December and it's Gorgeous! The color, the super soft leather, it's much nicer than my small (S/S '12) Navy.
I can't wait to see the new colors IRL!

Wouldnt it be nice to have all three hues of leather? Orange is the shade that would be perfect for a jaunt to the Caribbean or during the summer. Natural works for more conservative outings and taupe is an all around staple. Pick one (or all three) that works for your lifestyle.
personnally, i don't like this collection at all, the point of le pliage is light, cheap and careless.
the leather one can't be folded nicely, it's more heavy the the original one, and it's quite expensive: with this price i would rather go to lots of other designer bags. and the leathe is quite delicate that if you use it everyday you will ruin it in not more than one year.
anyway, it came out since almost one year, and i have never seen anyone carry it....by the way i am in paris, and parisienne women are the biggest fans of le pliage

I live in the South of France and I have never seen anyone carry it either.
I think it's because it's an expensive bag. The small one is 300 euros and for us it's enormous.

Would love some comments responding to this. Personally I disagree for the most part but can't back it up with experience about the durability. I think the Cuir is pretty much almost as light as the nylon, which was a huge selling point for me (the weight is amazing), it folds up nicely, and it is made of gorgeous leather. and I don't think the nylon Le Pliage is my idea of "cheap" for nylon, either. I'd rather pay more for leather. I would like some comments from people who have carried this line about how it has lasted. I own a gently-used Cyclamen but it has been in my closet waiting for spring. It is in great condition, though. Would you agree that it would be "ruined" in a year?

I love mine. I find it very light weight but sturdy. I often carry it folded. Basically I use it a lot like I would a nylon Le Pliage.
I don't much care if other women carry it or not. I've never had my opinions on a bag swayed by the popular vote.
I bought a new Le Cuir (the small one) in Paprika over the weekend. Upon comparing it to my old Le Cuir (also small one) in Fir, the strap on the Paprika new one is 3 inches shorter, which makes it extremely hard to wear across the shoulders. I thought I got a defective bag but I called Longchamp today. The SA compared all of the straps on the Le Cuir (Small bags) and told me that the new spring collection bags all have straps that are 3 inches shorter than the ones from previous seasons, unless you get the medium sized, which comes with the same length of straps as before. The new (smaller sized) ones can no longer be worn crossbody. I'm bummed out because I like paprika but i cannot tolerate this shorter strap.
As far as durability wise, I think it would really depend on the colors. I don't think they're all made the same, unfortunately. My old bag, as stated, is in Fir (green). It's dark so it's more durable and tolerable of stains, wears I guess. But I can imagine it being a problem if it was in a lighter color.
