Hi everyone!

i thought i saw a mansur gavriel sub-forum but i cant find it..

anyway

i've been loving the cloud shape of both the mini clutch crossbody and the larger cloud clutch. the color i'm debating is the light pink color in both.. the thing i cant decide is which to get? the crossbody would just be a go-to bag bc its so easy to wear. however, the larger cloud clutch, i love how large it is and i think the shape is great. i guess the clutch is harder to hold since you have to put it under your arm or carry it by the frame.

i'm also wondering if i should get the crossbody in the pink now to use in the summer and get the larger size in a more all year round, neutral color..

does anyone own either ? if anyone can let me know what you like / dislike about either one, would help me in my decision. thoughts welcome!

thanks!

I love the Clutch - it's actually easy to hold and carry, and it holds as little or as much as you need. I do not have the mini, so can't answer to that.

Just found out from Vlad: Yes, the MG sub, along with some others, were folded into handbags due to inactivity. Their threads can be found by filtering by the brand prefix.

I much prefer my Mansur Gavriel Cloud Clutch in to the BV Pouch. The 'dip' in the top that helps create the cloud shape fits my hand perfectly to hold the purse. I was surprised how much I like it as a bag to take to work sometimes.

But, for the Mini size I much prefer the BV Mini Pouch to the MG Mini Cloud. The Cloud just doesn't seem as good to me in the mini size. And the dip is too small for my hand to fit, like it does with the full size Cloud, so not easy to carry. So I immediately returned the Mini Cloud for a refund.

hi JenJBS - thanks for your reply! i'm now leaning more towards the clutch too instead of the crossbody because of the shape and how large it is. what color do you have?

So funny! I was also looking for a Mansur Gavriel thread yesterday and wondering why really nothing pops up in search! I have similar problem, love the cloud shape and unsure of the best size to get. There are a few youtube review about the clouds and one gal was also very surprised how well she loved the big one!

OH, a totally worthless color - Spiga. I love this color, always wanted yellow and there it was. Because I have a thing for yellow, I'm always looking. It's a hard color to get right, and Mansur Gavriel does.

My cloud clutch arrived and it is just sooo gorgeous.
I actually was not sure which exact color will be delivered, as I bought it on a special sale at Yoox. The color was just described as light brown. I though it might be biscotto, my favourite color, but also some lighter shade. However price was too good and I thought I just take the plunge. And here it comes, it is the mist beautiful biscotto - such a great taupe color.
Unfortunately it is pretty difficult to get right on a photo… The first one probably is the most matching one (in real life it is a tad lighter), but still not true to color…
The bag itself, wow. Great lucious leather, soft, but not too floppy. Leather lined. And so cool, the size is perfect (I was afraid it was too large, but not at all!)!
Can‘t wait to use it! Guess I will look fabulous! :-)
