I was tempted to get one and tried on a few times a few years ago but in the end the way zipper closure works turned me off. Not sure if the zipper has been modified though.
The zipper is the same, no modifications. It looks so chic. I’m thinking, by hand it could be carried unzipped, but it would have to be zipped when using the shoulder strap or it would tork. The shoulder straps are positioned on opposing sides, which would cause it to twist, if left open. HSH Princess Charlene of Monaco carries one every once and a while.
This just might be one of those bags a adore from afar. I think the Gaby is for me.

I told Curtis it reminds me of a Neverfull+Goyard combo. The leather color comes off as brown, but it’s black. The ‘M’s’ are a bronze tone. When they are at the NYC boutique, I’ll get photos and post them. I’ll also find out the dimensions and the price. I’m going to text Curtis today and find out it’s estimated time of arrival- it’s my understanding- any day now.
I ordered the OH! tote early last month from the NY store - the 'Bronze/Orange' combo, because it gave me Goyard-but undercover vibes (I love their print but not entirely sure I can walk around carrying it 'cause everybody knows it screams 'MONEY!' :-) )My bags get used a ton, and while I'm not careless, all the stories about Goyard cracking got me paranoid. That's hella $$$ to spend and have the bag looking garbage in a short while. I'm cool with worn-ness on my Mansur Gavriel bags, or Madewell Transport totes because I got them on sale, but a $1700 bag? Nah. Taking my coins to Moynat, let's see how it goes :-)
 
Sunday fun day [emoji4] Stuck inside with rain and a cold, so time for some mod shots. Mini Gaby Fog. For reference I’m 5’6”.

Need honest opinion. How does this size look on me? I’m thinking of getting another Gabrielle and trying to decide between mini and PM. [emoji848]I want to be able to have a bag that can come to work and go to dinner. My current MM Gabrielle feels big for day to night but is a good workhorse.

The mini Gaby looks fabulous on you! Maybe add a PM size Gabrielle to your collection coz you already have a mini box gabrielle. But mini bags are so cute and hard to resist buying!:P

The quality is on par with H and the styles are impeccable. There is some similarity between the Gaby and the more recent H 24/24, but personally I much prefer the Gaby.

I so agree!! Every time one arrives I’m am astonished with the quality. What styles do you have in your Moynat collection? My SA keeps trying to convince me to try other styles, but I am so in love with the Gabrielle and Gaby. I don’t see the issue, I have 4 Bs in different colors and sizes and I’m not crazy, right ? I think I’m going to get the PM Gabrielle so I have one in each size! [emoji173]️

My current faves are Gaby and Rejane. Quattro is a must for more casual alternative or second bag for carrying extra items.

And no you're not crazy! I had a similar SA experience at H - buying (another) K35 she said for my next bag I should get a K32 or a Birkin, and I'm like "why?" It's good to know what you love and works for your own personal needs.
