ps: imo sometimes one cant see the silhouette of an unstructured black bag like gaby. i think taupe ghw looks very pretty. (altho the black gaby is also dropdead gorgeous especially when seen in person innit). i am torn between red n black mini gaby but i bought a polar pm gaby that i havnt been able to see/touch/carry yet due to pandemic n travel BS. one of the lovely ladies here helped me decide on a polar gaby n she looks different in different light. forever grateful to this forum with such kind-hearted peeps. if u like the color polar, imo it is the purrrrrtiest for its shape. good luck dear!

oh wooow that is absolutely a gorgeous color and something i would totally go for, but i have many similar color bags and im trying to force myself to try other colors. In my >20 handbag collection, i dont have a lot of black and gold or taupe and gold hw haha I love grey and light blue and cognac and have many bags in those colours, thats my jam. Your bag is absolutely beautiful and thanks for your kind words. This is the fattest ive ever been and im already losing weight, but i do feel mini bags make me look even bigger than i am. I am 5,6 (1,72m).

Hello dears!

I'm planning my first Moynat purchase for my 38th birthday this week. I have been to the store multiple times, service has been awesome but i can never make up my mind. Im in love with Gabrielle and Gaby in the small size (not the mini).
I'm a casual wearer (sneakers, jeans, neutrals kind of girl) and I have a quite large designer handbag collection (Hermes, Chanel, Celine, Loewe, Fendi...).
As I am getting older, I am more into minimalist looking, great craftmanship, no logo, neutral bags.
I want to use this bag, i dont want to put it on a shelf to admire it (that's where my Kelly is) but i also want a classic piece that will last forever and this may be my only Moynat bag since im really trying to downsize my collection instead of adding more into it lol

Attached pics I took wearing the Gabrielle PM. Unfortunately, i dont have any pics wearing a Gaby.
I think the Gabrielle is perfection, but as im a casual wearer i will probably use the Gaby more, but then i think i have so many bags that i can rotate and then i could get the gabrielle in palledium that looks more casual. One day i wake up saying im going to buy the gabrielle and another the gaby and its been already a year that i want a Moynat bag lol

Once i decide on which one to get, gabrielle or gaby, i need your extra help on the colour.

So to summarize, should i get...?

Gabrielle black gold hw
Gabrielle black palladium hw
Gaby black gold hw
Gaby black palladium hw
Gaby taupe gold hw (attached is with palladium since my store didnt have a gold hw one now, but i tend to prefer gold hw in this color combo)

Both bags in PM size because im quite fat so mini looks ridiculous on my frame lol

Appreciate all your opinions~

You look fantastic and Gabrielle looks beautiful on you! Either bag is a great choice but since you said you’re more casual, I vote for gaby pm. I’m very casual as well and I love my peacock with ghw gaby pm, however I still want a Gabrielle pm Taupe with ghw gaby pm is gorgeous and a fantastic neutral and I’m sure you’ll find it very versatile.

You're NOT fat and both the Gaby and Gabrielle look lovely and proportionate on you. Because you mentioned that you are more casual and your Kelly sit on a closet, I think a Gaby would suit you well. I have a taupe Gaby ghw and it is so very versatile. But whether you choose black or taupe, I'm sure that you will find it carefree and practical. Good luck!

Thank you dear for your comment and your kind words. I think the gaby is a great bag and i think i would be torn between black gold hw and taupe gold hw hahaha

Hi @Miss_HK: ❤❤❤ congratulations. yayyyyyy. are you doing gold hardware or palladium? what size? im happy to hear someone else finds the emerald rejane irresistible (is it even permissible?). yes i also wondered what difference wud it be to get a post-ramesh-era one vs wat they already have. after seeing moynat's bag posts on instagram post-ramesh-era, im quite afraid the quality of their bags will just not be the same. and this is why i hurried and got a gaby few months ago last year and getting a rejane this year before march. thats when the SA in paris said the new stocks will come. in any case, high five girl. ❤❤❤

Hi hun~ how do you recognise the new stock from the old stock? I noticed the logo difference only.

Hiiii: im pretty new to Moynat so i wudnt know. I would like to know the answer to your question too.

*When i bought my first two Moynats, I just asked the SAs at the Saks store in NYC if they were old stock or new. It was on the phone so I just believed what Andrew and Curtis told me. On small leather goods though, the SA at the Dubai store showed me the difference in their old logo n new.

Not fat! You look fantastic. And, given how you described your style I was going to say Gaby but with your outfit in those pix the Gabrielle looks awesome. But so would the Gaby.

As for color and hardware only you know the answer. What do you reach for the most in your current collection? (I ask this, rather than where do you have gaps, because you want to downsize.)

Re: the difference between the old logo and new---would anyone here be kind enough to post photos? As I am no where near a boutique, I would like to see the differences! Thank you in advance!

I wasn't interested in Gabrielle before, but you are selling it to me very well.
I'd judge the ease of access between the 2 bags: both looks great, but which one is easier to grab things from (based on the activities you'd wear the bag to). Also if your wardrobe is mainly b/w/g like in the photos, I'd vote for black bag.

Thank you for your time replying me. I really appreciate it. I have finally made up a decision (i think). I will go to Moynat boutique tomorrow afternoon to pick it up as tomorrow is my birthday. I will keep you all posted about my final decision. I think this may not be my last Moynat piece hahaha so i will have to downsize on other brands haha

This is the cutest bag ever! I love the color Polar. Thank you for sharing. I have been wanting another Gabby and that will be my color.

haha yes! i am all neutral kind of person. My palette is black, grey (my fave colour), light blue, navy, tan brown, nude pink or cool tone beige and now i added burgundy which i love. My style is super basic (jeans or leggins, sneakers or biker boots and for tops it depends on my weight, i fluctuate a lot, so i can wear a nice lace Sesane blouse or a sweatshirt lol). I would like to add an emerald green bag but i missed Moynat emerald one.

I will go to boutique tomorrow and will take logo pics for you to see. The bag i decided on has an old logo and im sure i will find the new logo in store tomorrow. I personally prefer the old logo, I dont know why the first thing a new CD enters a House is to change the logo...
