Mj Dianne!

[beauxgoris]

I'm still in love with my Caroline (and still looking for another in Ivory or Burgundy) but I think this MJ bag is so cool:

Marc Jacobs -  Dianne Shoulder Bag -  Neiman Marcus

Is this a fall06/winter07 bag? What can you tell me about it? Does anyone have the Dianne yet? I'd love to see photo's.

I like Dianne, it has 3 suede lined compartments. It's made for Resort 2006 and Spring/Summer 2007. The one in the picture is Cocoa from Resort 2006.

I love the style of Dianne, but the leather (of the ones I saw from Resort 06 batch) is stiff. Plus, The mini pushlock is hard to open.

The mini pushpocks are for decorative purposes only now for some of the S/S 07 bags (Christy, Deborah) - design improvement. There's actually a magnetic snap beneath it, we no longer need to open the mini pushlock. I assume that S/S 07's Dianne would have this change as well.

The mini pushlock is very cute, I definitely like it more than the leather pull tab.

I don't know any members who own this bag, but here's a review that Jill had when she saw it last fall:

I was in love with this bag..TILL i saw it IRL...it had the worst looking leather..I was shocked cuz it looked cheap IRL

 

[marclover]

I agree with Jill. IRL it is much stiffer than most of MJ's other soft calf. It definitely looks cheap. However, I only saw it in black, so maybe the cocoa is better!

I guess this means that beauxgoris and I need another Saks/Neiman's day to check it out IRL.

Isn't MJ known for good quality leather? This surprises me--I wish I lived closer to stores that carry good brands so I can see them IRL. You can't tell everything from photos. Nice style and color--too bad the leather isn't as nice.

^^^ Maybe.... - i'd love to have this one - but only if it's "on sale" which i'm sure wouldn't happen for quite a while. I'm still pretty in love with my MJ caroline for now+ I think Bottega Veneta is next on my list.....

I do love this bag.
