Hello! Coming back, as promised, with some comparison pics of the SS14 Le Jardin de Leila vs the SS22 Faubourg Tropical.
They are so similar! Although the Tropical is beautiful, I actually prefer the warmer shades of the Leila on me. Regardless, I'd have a hard time justifying keeping two such similar CSGMs. I took all the comparison pics with it remaining folded to make sure it goes back in pristine condition, but tried to capture all the colors of both. The Leila is nearly a two color shawl with much less variation in color, while the Tropical has a number of colors. And, at least on my computer, the colors as depicted in these pics look true. I hope this is helpful to anyone wondering how these compare.
In all pics the Leila is on the left and the Tropical is on the right.
Le Jardin de Leila - blanc/canelle/roux vs Faubourg Tropical - blanc/rouge/corail

I don't think I've seen this CW modelled previously, absolutely gorgeous!
Certainly would feel somewhat duplicative to have both. While the colors are a bit different, the overall feel is so very similar. And, yes regarding my quest for a Faubourg Tropical, it continues! Now holding out for the gris chine CW, let's see if it actually materializes!
