Thanks! I like the look of the Josephine as well, but not so much the colour combinations available. The problem is too many eye candies, and it's hard to decide when you haven't tried it on yourself. Perhaps I'll just have to make a trip down to the NYC store and see for myself :smile:

Please do make a trip - it’ll be worth it! The Josephine is lovely and lightweight- even in the MM size. My reservation was the color combination as well. Word has it that a more neutral combination is in the pipeline: black and natural (a sand or toutorelle?).

The Danse is a nice alternative. It comes in PM and MM. The bag in calf leather or nubuck is very soft and lightweight, offers the option of being a handheld, shoulder or crossbody. There are both interior and exterior pockets in addition to the now signature turnlock for security. The downside: it’s unstructured, so it can become extremely floppy.

Thanks sf_newyorker! Actually the other style I was interested in was Danse, but I couldn't gauge the size properly, and I was hoping for more colour options. Hope to be able to share my first Moynat with you all soon!

Wow, you have my full attention ❤️. Do you think that using a fairly structured insert would help with the floppiness? I’m ok with a fair amount of softness but a full on puddle might be problematic. I also wonder about the length of the strap for crossbody purposes. Is it truly a crossbody bag or just wearable that way if a tad short? I’ve ruled out the Hermes jypsiere for this reason (I’m not willing to pursue a custom length strap).

I hope for your reveal soon. Right now the color options are pretty neutral (e.g. black, grey, blue, mushroom/beige). The Danse, I understand, is limited (as with many Moynat pieces) and was designed specifically for the opening of the NYC boutique and with U.S. consumer in mind - we do have a preference for soft and smooshy leather! It has since been made available in limited quantities globally.

Sizewise - I’m about 5 feet and some loose change and 120lbs. The PM is proportionate to me. In capacity, the PM is comparable to a Lindy 26 or Speedy 25. The MM is much larger and would look like a mailbag on me!

I think an insert would help and don’t believe the Danse will go full puddle on you. The exterior back pocket helps with retaining its shape. The front of the bag (not the flap part) may collapse a bit since the turnlock weighs it down. Yes, it can be a true crossbody as the removable strap is adjustable. Please excuse my pics below- the lighting is a little off and I’d just come home from work and Whole Foods, and threw on my roll-back Walmart crazy cat mama long t-shirt!

Thanks so much for the info and the added pics! This is officially on my list now for further analysis, hopefully in person. I don’t have a boutique near me but will be traveling soon, and on a mission. Enjoy your lovely bag in good health!

Bagaholic222, I completely understand what you’re saying. I can only see/feel/try on the bags in person when I travel out of my hometown. I like to know what I’m getting, before I spend thousands of dollars. I like to see what it looks like on me- I’m known for loving bags until I see what they look like on me. Case in point- Chanel Boy bag looks awful on me. I can’t do the rounded top, structured bags, no matter how much I love the look. :crybaby:
I wish you the best- finding that bag that makes you smile! :hugs:

I had a bag insert for my Chanel Deauville (the queen of puddle bags) and it helped a lot.
There might be room for more holes to lengthen it, if it’s too short.

I haven’t taken the plunge yet with Moynat. This is my best friend’s Danse. She’d asked that I hold it for her while she prepared for a major move, and she wanted my opinion on the bag and mod shots (LOL, I kind of egged her on to purchase it at the boutique, so my opinion was already quite positive). I’m pretty sure it’s available outside the U.S. The price is $4700 USD.

Excited to score a great deal on this on the resale market. I’ve been wanting a Quattro, but didn’t find the colors I love. Head over heels for this and can’t wait to get it!

Beautiful color combination! Congrats!!!!!!
Please keep us updated on how you like it and how it wears. I have a canvas tote, but have my eyes on a Quattro.
I’ve always wondered if it’s like a Hermes Double Sens on the bottom, or if it’s a little more structured.
Congratulations, again!

Thank you for sharing! The bags are beautiful. Enjoy your Oh! Tote. I use mine daily and it looks great- I even got caught in the rain yesterday. No worries, thank goodness.
Please get better soon!

Thank you so much! You are right! Really loving my Oh Tote — it’s so lightweight and carefree! The open top worried me in the beginning (reason I have a Goyard Artois, but that’s another story...now I realize their canvas is plasticky compared to Moynat. And don’t get me started on the strap rubber glue (?) that melts in humidity!) but I just put a scarf on top to have a bit more privacy and security :heart: I am really enjoying the Oh Tote and can’t wait for my third Moynat...will have to think it through :love::blush:

I am feeling a bit better after a couple of days of rest, thank you so much :blush::flowers:
