Hi guys!
Any photos of you with your GMs? I’m 5’1” and leaning towards GM but am on the fence as not sure if it would be too big?
TIA!

Hi! Bag size is such a personal preference, but at 5'2, I thought a GM was overwhelming on me. My dear friend who is a similar height looks great with hers, though. Are you able to try at the boutique? For me, pm was definitely better.

Thanks for your response! I’m not sure about the GM but it’s on the website now and I’m afraid it will sell out. I was hoping I could adjust the strap so it sits properly and hangs across my body but not sure. I’m quite petite and feel like it may swallow me! Lol! Shops are still closed until 15 June. :(

There is a considerable difference in weight between the pm and gm. I wouldn't rush to get it just because a bag is available; wait to get what is right for you depending on how much you need to carry and what size is right for your frame. At your height, with a slight build, it may be too overpowering... but the good news is, if you decide to try it and it doesn't work, you do have the option to return it as long as not worn/used. Good luck deciding!

You’re absolutely right. I just bought it anyway though and will see how it looks. If it’s too big (which it probably is to be fair!), I’ll hold onto it and go to the shops next month or I’ll send it back. Course without using it! Thanks so much. :)
 
It’s the PM. IMHO, I think the GM would be much too big, bulky and heavy on a smaller stature. In certain angles, even the 29 can look big on me.
Thanks @sf_newyorker I ended up ordering both as stores are still not open in London yet and I’m not able to try it in person. I’ll probably end up returning the GM after what I’ve been reading. A very tall friend of mine has the GM and I remember thinking it looked big on her! Thanks for responding!
 
Hi! :wave:I can’t figure out the colour of this bag...is it grey or brown? I just ordered PM etoupe with phw and cannot wait for it to arrive! What colour would you say etoupe leans more towards? thanks!
Well, I generally am not drawn to grey bags. I find etoupe to be more taupe with just a hint of grey, but on the warmer side. I have a pair of Gucci sandals in the exact same color and Gucci calls the color mud. Not a great name, but probably more accurate, imo. I hope that you will love your new bag.:heart:

Amazing, thank you! Love your collection btw, fabulous. I think I’ve started down a slippery slope here. :biggrin:
