Hi de
Hi! I've been a member for just over a month now and this is my first post. I started my Moynat collection just over a year ago when I came across the Gabrielle. I have both the Gabrielle(my first bag from Moynat) and the clutch.

Since I only got the clutch about 2 months ago, I haven't used it much but I'm liking it a lot so far. While I did try the clutch at the store quite a long time ago, I only just decided to purchase it recently because I didn't think it would be as practical as other bags at that time. However I can say that I'm so happy to have the clutch in my collection now and you don't have to worry about there being any issues with it:smile:

Hi dear~ how are you like your gabrielle clutch so far? Do you know if it comes in gold hw? im thinking to buy one for Xmas.
 
Hello ladies! I have been admiring Moynat for a long time but now im really considering buying my first piece. I am thinking Gabrielle clutch, but i would like it in black and gold hardware. I have only seen it in silver hw, do you know it it comes in gold? my second option would be either a gabrielle mini or gaby mini. Thanks for your comments and suggestions.
 
Hi all, I wanted to start my first Moynat journey with the Rejane, the shape and structure is just perfect! I am currently looking at two options, maybe I can get some suggestions and thoughts?

- Option 1: Rejane bb (20cm) in emerald green with GHW
- Option 2: pre-order Rejane 23cm emerald green with GHW, 6 months wait but it is okay for me

Anyone know how much you can fit in a Rejane bb (20cm)? 2 phones + card holder + key + lipstick, is that it?
Anyone owns a Rejane 23 that can share their thoughts on the bag too?

I have asked the SA to send me some photos of the Rejane bb vs Gaby bb, thought I will share with you all here! ◡̈

I’m sad.:crybaby:
I placed a payment on a pewter/silver Oh! Tote pm w/ black straps five months ago, and they decided not to make it. They made that multi-logo tote and the pewter/silver Oh! Tote w/ red straps instead. I waited so patiently. I asked if I could SO, but they said Paris requests are taking months now, and the showroom (atelier) will be close at the end of this week into January, for the holidays. I really like Moynat, but realllllllllly! Not a good look post sale. Hopefully 2021 will bring good vibes from Moynat.:flowers:

I am so so sorry to read this @Sourisbrune, and I am so disappointed with how they handled this. They should have fulfilled all SOs and not just decide suddenly not to make them, even if it takes a little longer. So sad. I hope 2021 is better, too. Are you still considering the Gaby BB?


Thank you as always for sharing, I love these photos. My SA also showed me their nanos that came in and unfortunately I just feel they're too small. Cute, but I don't buy bags that don't fit my cellphones! As The Bag Hag, it really is more of an SLG to me than a bag. I am also not to keen on the proportions of the clasp/lock against the nano size. These photos just confirm to me I made the right decision not ordering the Rejane nano and just how beautiful the emerald Rejane BB is. Sigh! :love:

I think it comes in gold hardware but in box or satin calf leather... If you do a quick "Gabrielle clutch" search in this thread, you will see some photos. I am especially thinking of photos that Sourisbrune has posted in the past. However, I am not sure in terms of availability and it would be best to ask a boutique about that. The Gabrielle BB and Gaby BB are great alternatives, I love them both.

Welcome! I'm pretty sure I've seen a few posts in this thread of the emerald Rejane BB as I've searched it in the past. I don't own either yet so can't comment further, but that thread search might help :smile:

I would think hard about the pre-order likelihood of fulfillment - per @Sourisbrune 's recent experience, given the creative flux they are in they seem to not think much of just deciding not to fill customer orders.

Also it's weird that SAs seem not to have seen anything of any new designs. During Ramesh era there were prototypes, SAs got images of those and pre-release models to show clients. It's been six months since Ramesh's departure was announced, and surely something was being designed before that. Where is everything? (And no, I don't count those logo totes as new designs.)

The latest IG photos of nano Rejanes reminded me of Big Eyes paintings. (I was going to share a collage but decided to spare us all - you can't unsee.)

The Gaby bb is on my revised wishlist. A friend is selling some of her pristine Hermès bags she’s rarely used. I have my eyes on a couple of her bags at discounted prices, and she’s willing to sell them to me at my speed. Somehow I’m going to fit the Gaby bb into the mix.

The Nano beside the Réjane bb demonstrates it’s itty-bittiness. The photo also shows how Moynat used the same size hardware on the two different sizes. The Réjane bb is a beautiful color.
 
The fact that Moynat used the BB size hardware on the Nano makes me love it even more! Patiently waiting for the Ocean blue to arrive:angel:
I can see the cuteness appeal with such a tiny bag. However, it reads to me like the designer was lazy, in contrast to how attentive Ramesh was to the proportions of every element when introducing new bag sizes. Perhaps they didn't want to bother to do the work or have yet another sized set of hardware produced.

I am so sorry to hear this, @Sourisbrune!
It's such a shame as I am also really looking forward to seeing it. :crybaby:
Honestly I feel the way they handled regarding this order is rather uncool and extremely unprofessional - simply can't take someone's order/monies 5 months ago and then turn around decide to cancel it, any "respectable" company should have honour it!

I doubt that is the case since there’s already a smaller Rejane model with even smaller hardware.. like Hermes mini Kelly small. And that felt cheap. I’m actually a little surprised they didn’t shrink the hardware to cut costs, given the new direction they’re heading in.

Hi, this is what I can fit in my Rejane BB if I invoke all of my 3D puzzle skills:

- BV card case
- Calvi (with keys)
- 2 phones (only one shown here as I'm using the other to take the photo)
- Full pack of tissues
- Face mask in plastic baggie (my cloth one will take too much room when I need to maximize bag real estate)
- 50 ml hand sanitizer spray
- lipstick / lip balm

Hope this helps!

ETA: My phone is about 16 cm long, and I have to wedge it in at the longest section of the bag. Wanted to note this because it can take some maneuvering!
