I’m from the West Coast and I prefer it that there isn’t a boutique in California yet - there’s one to open at South Coast Plaza soon. I like that I’m saving money on sales tax [emoji6].

I currently buy by phone from NYC. When the one at South Coast opens, I’ll be shopping in person. Their tax is less than where I live so it’ll be cheaper still, but not by much.

Interesting - that looks like a nice shopping destination. Perhaps there is hope as @bellebellebelle19 suggested for them to "up the marketing game".

Am I alone in thinking this print ad is really different (and not in a good way) than the images the company posts on social media? There was another one a few months ago featuring a shiny red croc Rejane which was overlit and also extremely text-y. (DH, who doesn't usually notice these things unless I point them out, saw this and commented that it looked "cheesy".)

Here also are two other bag ads from adjacent pages. It really doesn't "go with" the Moynat brand IMO. Seems like a 1990s Lederer ad.

I think in general they need to up the marketing game! I'm not a fan of even the images and graphic on their IG, although I do think their videos are really nice and interesting.

Yeah - it's confusing IMO, at least in the U.S. The only boutique is in NYC, and they were doing online and had in-store stock at Barney's, but that seems to have ended. (Any West Coast fans? - How are you buying, via phone from NYC?) And don't even get me started about the website!

I see how many boutiques they have opened in Asia and it makes me wonder if the US isn't an afterthought.

Curtis, my SA in NYC was responsible for the Barney’s relationship. It ended the end of spring. Barney’s basically advertised what the NYC boutique had.
I’ve notified him about the lack of available merchandise advertising and the cheesy and flat photos. He wrote back- good to know since they spend a lot on out of house advertising. He’ll pass on what I’ve told him. I also made a remark about the website.
Asia is a huge market for them. The US isn’t really an afterthought. They are looking at demographics to create their best plan of action. I think they’ll do well in Orange County- lots of money. I picure a second boutique in the golden triangle. They want to stay exclusive, but make profit gains. LV boutiques are like McDonalds. Even Chanel and Hermès have multiple boutiques in cities.

Hi all! Oh my, I've just discovered Moynat and have fallen in love. What gorgeous leathers and colors!

Would anyone be able to tell me the US prices of the largest size of both the Gabrielle and the Gaby? Thank you!

The largest Gabrielle is $5100. NY has a new one in tourterelle/powder.
The largest Gaby is an mm- $4900 USD for gold hardware, $4600 USD for silver hardware.
I hope this helps.

I love it! The clean lines and simplicity makes it timeless. The leather looks soft, yet the bag itself looks structured enough, so it won’t sag when filled.
Excellent choice! Enjoy and thank you so much for sharing your eye candy!
