I must say I am loving how Coach is elevating their brand. I'm very glad to see actual fashion coming out to go along with the bags in the last few seasons. I'm excited to see where it goes.
I love the new silhouette of the new swagger so far. It's very architectural, and at first glance looks to be quite substantially made. I'm on board with the rest of you regarding the embellishing - would love to see a few of these without any embellishments for sale when this finally launches. I think the actual bag design is quite stunning and speaks for itself.
This is a sweet looking Swagger.
Many of these bags just have a lot going on with them. All these embellishments make them very trendy and something I would personally get tired of carrying. That being said, I like the color blocking on this first picture and I think these shooties are super cute on the second.
Great thread! Agree with much of what everyone else has noted. Especially that the boots are TDF and the C-chain is interesting!
Does anyone else see that the top part of the new Swagger shape is similar to Reed Krakoff's Atlantique? Just the way the handles are stitched to the outside, and the front and back panels are much higher than the sides?
Anyway, I'm still patiently waiting for the kisslock bags from Fall 2017 to hit stores!

So it's called the Swagger 42. That thing must be giant!
Yeah, especially since it's blocky and not tapered like the Edie 42. My Rogue 36 is the largest I dare go with.
On the other hand, I feel like that also makes it a more unisex bag if it's available in some more subdued colourways!
I guess it will really be a catch-all kind of bag, sort of like Mulberry's Bayswater where you can literally throw in a sweater on top of your stuff if need be. So long as this isn't too heavy, I'm definitely still interested in this bag!
Those new designs for the Swagger interest me but the huge ones are way too big for me. I don't like large purses. I am in love with the three Swagger 27s that I own. They are my favorite bags right now, even more than my Rogue 25 which I am currently carrying. I too wish some of the clothes came in bigger sizes. I would so love to own a Coach leather jacket but I'd have to lose a lot of weight to fit in one. Don't they realize that not all Coach fans are thin? I don't expect everything to come in a larger size but a couple pieces would be nice.
Thanks for sharing all these photos with us, you're always so on top of it!
About the collection though, I hate to be Negative Nancy here but...I'm not feeling it at all. I really don't like these new swagger looks, the sides just looking gaping and awkward. The clothing is mostly a miss with a few hits (like those black dresses and a few of the jackets). Seriously, I love Coach, but stop trying to make denim dresses happen. They're not going to happen in 2017. And if I see one more revival of a tacky cowboy boot from coach I'm going to explode. Some of these pieces just look like bedazzle + random embroidery patches glued to already unremarkable clothes. Okay I'm done, sorry. Just disappointed in what I'm seeing so far; I'm sure there there will still be pieces i fawn over in this collection but overall it looks kind of tacky.
Maybe I'm just a naysayer

Coach doesn't do plus size apparel -- I don't think I've even seen a large or x-large t-shirt or sweatshirt, ever!!
Since Leather Handbags and SLG's are their primary product, I don't think they are seeking to expand on the demographics of their clothing line customers. Us larger folks have plenty of clothing designers available for our needs.
EDIT -- My intention above wasn't meant to sound like a lecture, as much as just stating what's obvious, lol.
