Fellow BVettes, maybe @V0N1B2 or @grietje in particular- do y'all have contact info for @indiaink beyond TPF, like an email address or phone number? If yes, could you either share it with me or pass along a message? A while back she posted that she was looking for a particular Veneta, and I think I found the one she wants for sale on Vestiaire. I messaged her via TPF but haven't heard anything. Thanks! :flowers:
 
Hello everyone :smile: I have an advice to ask you! I want to add the Bottega Veneta Chain Cassette bag to my collection, and I’m leaning towards two colors, “Caramel” and “Maple” (which I know was a limited edition color but sometimes can be found through resellers). Which one do you think is best? I think Caramel is a beautiful color that doesn’t get old in the long run, also goes with many colors/outfits and it’s a classic, but at the same time Maple is such a gorgeous color. Which one would you recommend? Thank you :smile:

This question is almost a year old so I am sure you've made your decision by now. But I love the first one. Caramel? I have always been intrigued by BV as my cousins seem to love them. But none of their styles ever hit the mark for me all these years. Until FW 2023. The Cassette line is definitely fun!

I’ve spent a lot of time scrolling very old BV threads, plus a daily peek at TRR’s BV offerings……(lots of older styles b/c other resellers usually only purchase old styles that are still very in demand, but TRR takes them all!)…..so even though i was not into BV way back, i am pretty familiar with many of the older styles. And with the exception of some obviously new and unique bags, looking at the new Fall 2024 bags i can see how MB went through those old archives and copied many of those designs, with a bit of alteration. but definitely older TM designs. Loving it! Boy that croc Lauren :heart: swoon!

What do y’all think?!

I love that he released a teen Lauren. I wish the handle/strap execution on certain models was better. Yes that croc Lauren was TDF

So cool the Lauren is back, yes! Love that large envelope clutch too — gorg in croc. The fish clutch is very fun too (we are boaters, and DH is huge fisherman, so…hopefully one day i can find a good one resale lolol.…)
Straps seem very thin on some of the bags? Is that what u meant?

Yes particularly the camera bag, Andiamo & certain cassette bags.
