THIS IS TOO BEAUTIFUL!!
Oh why oh why was this thread started and pictures of this beautiful collection started.
I was going to tip toe off ban island to buy a new bag to match my new vehicle - but NOW I see this!!!!
An my new vehicle is not a MONO or TURQUOISE, or PINK!!!! Oh my what's a girl to do!!!
Thank you!
Oh how I wish they would have done it in turquoise. The pattern just shows so much better and the color is spectacular. I did the Keepall and Pochette in the Ramages. I ordered all the pieces and have yet to see the zippy wallet. I did not like the layout on the cosmetic pouch. It was much better on the prototype. I liked the Neverfull, but again, the interior does not match and you have even more colors to contend with. I also do not like the interior stripes with the pattern. When they first stated it would be a matching pattern, I was excited. The graffiti inside looks great with the pattern. I also liked the speedy, but it was the bottom I liked best. I just don't think I would wear it often so I decided to go with the Keepall, which I liked best and knew that I would just use it occasionally. My personal feeling is that the V is much more timeless because of its simplicity versus the Ramage. Regarding the Ramage Collection, I am hoping that in a year or two I don't look back wondering what I was thinking. I am really sure I won't feel that way about the V Collection. I also really like the fact that the V Collection is print in. It does make a difference. I am super careful with my bags, and both my graffiti speedies as well as zippy show signs of chipping. I have never used my Kusama white speedy, but saw one on Yoogis that was awful. It was missing the white all over the place. Out of everything that came out, the turquoise neverfull is the clear winner for me. The pochette in both designs is the cutest small piece. I like how the V goes to the very top in the pochette. It does not on the cosmetic pouch, insolite, or zippy, but it did in the prototype. Not a big deal, but I saw the prototypes so I did notice the difference. I will wait a few weeks to see if I change my mind about the Keepall. It looks fantastic, but I will see if it starts annoying me. There will always be something coming out, but not always better. They have not been able to top the graffiti yet for me, but the turquoise V Neverfull is right there!

I was wondering if anyone else noticed the V edges not going all the way to the top. I think that's what held me back on the insolite wallet and I love the insolite! I loved how the V flowed over the top on the Zephyr but it does scream too much LV.
Hi HTOWNE, you mentioned that the interior color of the grenade Neverfull doesn't match the color of the V. Does the interior color of the grenade Insolite match the V? Where I live the V collection isn't available until tomorrow, will be going to the store tomorrow. I reserved a speedy and insolite both in grenade; can hardly wait!
Can someone please post modeling pics of their turquoise V NF? I'm dying to see it!! Thank you!!
I saw the insolite and to my eye the v matches the interior- I thought it was nicely done
ok, cool! thanks so much! Don't think I'm gonna get the insolite AND the speedy, will have to decide tomorrow when I see both IRL👍
Are you keeping the grenade V speedy? Now I am thinking that may be a better choice over the ramages speedy. I am like you that I like the print on and will worry about the ramages not aging well. BTW, I was not that impressed with the turq V zippy wallet- it was sort of blah. I much prefer the insolite.
The inside of the insolite does match beautifully. It is really a pretty color.
I actually don't think so. I personally like the turquoise so much better and the symbols just don't pop in the grenade. LV has done so many versions of pink and having this turquoise just blows it away. I will keep the pochette, cosmetic pouches, and most likely the insolite. I agree with you about the turquoise zippy so I am not sure I will keep it. I do think the Ramage will age well as the entire canvas is not covered like it almost was in the graffiti and kusama. Both of my graffiti neverfulls still look perfect. It was the speedies and zippy that show slight wear in the screen print. I am sure it is because I used them so much more.
I love how the V has the print in, but I also love how the Ramage print is all over, and I don't remember a time when they used so many colors all over a bag. There were multiple colors in the roses, but it was not all over. I purchased all the roses, but I ended up not liking them as well as the graffiti so I eventually sold them. I do think the Ramage colors work beautifully with the brown canvas.
For me, the V speedy is more youthful and in your face than the Ramage speedy. The Ramage speedy is more like a piece of art that works perfect for the spring and summer. I agree with everyone that you have to see it in person.
Please let us know what you end up doing. I am going to keep the Keepall and pochette, but may also get the speedy as I wont be able to use the Keepall much.
