I just wanted to see what people thought of the LFW offerings...
Originally I was opposed to the majority of the new Coca designs, now I've warmed to some (ie new Bayswater, Darley, Zipped Bays etc) because I like the more modern take on the classics. I have a two Celine luggage totes which I adore and I like the Mulberry twist, I'd even say I prefer it.
However, I'm not sure how I feel about 80% of what I've seen at LFW/Mulberry Online.. I've always invested heavily in Mulberry because it's a bag that lasts a decade, timelessly practical with designs that don't date. Even the 'It' bags have stood the test of time in my eyes (Alexa, Cara etc.) but looking at Coca's LFW I feel like Mulberry is going to become Seasonal and I don't know if I'd want to spend £1,000+ on a bag that will look dated in 6 months time because it's saturated instagram/pinterest. I'm not necessarily criticising the designs because I'm already lusting after some, but they're not the kind of bags I look to Mulberry for.. to me Mulberry was always the practical girl's answer to Hermes and I feel like it's lost touch with that.
I don't know if I'm being overly cynical but I'd like to know what everybody else thinks?
