@mlsv Did you decide what H bag would be next? How’s it been going with your beautiful gold Victoria?
So I pulled the trigger and she is finally here. Definitely a roomy bag, much bigger than any of my other Hermes. Can’t wait to bring her on the next trip. Thank you for letting me share 
Yay! Congrats! She looks great on you! Will you only be using as a travel bag? Or do you plan to use as a day bag too?So I pulled the trigger and she is finally here.

Thank you!! I have been using her as my work bag. She packs a bunch and still has so much room left. I need to be careful though however as she can get heavy. Otherwise, been enjoying wearing her daily to work 😊
Great choice for a work bag! I know what you mean about packing so much that it gets way too heavy!
Yay! Great photo! Such a perfect twilly for this Victoria!
I'm really happy for you on finding such a great H bag for your daily use and your travel. And I'm really glad to learn that you're happy with the color and don't feel boxed in by it.

Thank you so much. I’m really pleased with the color. I adore H twillies and one of the first things I did was look through my collection for a good match.

Sorry if this is not the correct place to post this question! Can someone give me a little tutorial on the Victoria? I’m looking for something less obvious than a birkin or Kelly.. while I love them and appreciate what I’ve collected, I like the understated look. I’ve ordered several Margaux bags by the row but returned because the quality does not compare to Hermes. What sizes and leathers does the Victoria come in?
I have 4 Victoria bags so I'm a little crazy about them. I saw that a YouTuber recently posted a video about her newly arrived Victoria. This video may have some helpful info in it for you. The video is by Ali, titled "This bag is INSANE!!! Unboxing and exploring the Hermes Victoria bag ❤️❤️❤️"
In the meantime here are some quick notes on this bag:
- Traditionally comes in 3 sizes: 35, 43, 50. Now there is a "Victoria III" in a mini size, as seen above.
- For leathers, it usually comes in Clemence. I also have one in Evercolor. It also comes in various canvases.
- Some of the older bags come with a luggage tag. I have heard that the bags with the luggage tags are called "Victoria" while the ones without it are "Victoria II" but I'm not sure if this is true.
- It has two zippers which meet on the center top of the bag. The zipper pulls can be locked to the center top of the bag.
- It has 5 feet and a usual stitch pattern on the bottom of the bag. The bottom is padded.
- The inside is lined in canvas, making it a bit lighter than other leather-lined bags of a similar size. Some linings have a zip pocket while others do not. All linings have slip pockets.
- The 35cm can be fit on the shoulder (if it's not too stuffed and you're not wearing a thick coat). The larger sizes have shorter handles.
I carry mine frequently and no one ever stops me to ask if it's an Hermès bag (which I appreciate). Maybe it's just me, but I strongly dislike talking to strangers about my Hermès bags because it makes me feel very uncomfortable. So the Victoria bag is great for me.

I would buy a bag based on this experience myself. And love it forever!
This thread is reminding me that I am still upset that there was a beautiful Victoria II, in a creamy wheat like color (trench maybe?), at LAX a year ago and I could have bought it and did not! What was I thinking? I am still kicking myself.
