I totally hear you. Bag peace seems elusive at present.

I am usually an intentional shopper and only buy bags after much consideration. However, the recent designer switch in my two favourite bag brands—Moynat and Delveaux—has launched Operation FOMO Moynat. :smile:

Just pulled the trigger on a Madeline in Peacock and Wood Rose. And like you, I am hunting for those remaining elusive Ramesh pieces on the internet.

You are lucky to be in Shanghai as there seems to be more legacy stock in China. From what I understand, Moynat Paris has a policy that stock transfers between the US and Asia cannot be from the mainland. So my SA says I am limited to whatever’s available in HK, Taiwan, Japan, Singapore and Korea.

It’s amazing that you scored a Gabrielle reporter in black... I had been stalking one in blue but it sold :sad:
I got my gabrielle reporter in Vestiaire Collective and i paid half price so super lucky, but the seller is in holiday and she said she will posting in 7 days so i guess i will not have it in China before 3 weeks or a month lol
 
I received a very kind message from Ramesh today. Details to come- I have to go run errands, but I will let those of you who are interested in what he wrote to me know what he said in a few hours. Please message me if you’d like to know.;)
Hello, I would love your update on Ramesh - I found this thread in 2020, purchased 4 Moynat handbags after falling in love with the brand, and I am now perplexed by the new creative direction... Thank you
 
I've been thinking I should probably stop lurking and actually say hi to everyone here! :wave:
I have admired Moynat from afar since they used to be online at Barneys.
There's no store in my country and I haven't had the joy of seeing them up close (except for a chance Rejane spotting in the wild at the supermarket hehe)
So I would like to say I really appreciate the wealth of knowledge and beautiful pictures from all of you since the beginning of this thread.
I get no joy from the latest releases and had always hoped more of Ramesh's designs would be available for a lot longer yet.

That is wonderful news, and how exciting! I am interested in what Ramesh said as well, if you are willing to share.

Thank you!
 
@quadmama You’re right. I shouldn’t wish I’m carrying sth else if it’s really a dream bag of my true enjoyment. Can’t get my mind out of the chameleon peacock. Prussian blue looks really too blue for me. And why haven’t I thought of having another leather in peacock? You see the blind spot @Jesxia! Lemme get back to my SA to check if it’s an available choice. Thanks for the great advice and the photos! It’s very generous of you dears.
 
Happy to help! My Cabotine is also a red. It’s absolutely lovely and a great pop of colour for outfits. (Like you, l prefer neutrals but opted for the Cabotine in red because it looked more fun and feminine.)

My bag is in storage now, but I will try to pull it out and send you mod pictures when I get a chance to go to the locker.

BTW, I was asking my SA about the larger Cabotin and my SA mentioned there is still a Paprika available in the smaller Cabotine. It’s a bit more orange but still quite lovely. (See pic below)

Thanks for this pic dear! i find this style to be craftmanship in a bag. I received a message from Vestiare Collective today saying my purchased Gabrielle Reporter was no longer available and that they would cancel my order! Im gutted. I dont know what happened. The seller told me she was on holidays and would be back after 7 days so i dont know if VC decided to cancel the order instead or if it is really true that its not available. I sent a message to the seller and hope she can explain. If not available, i think i will pull the trigger and get this small cabotin in red instead :)

That is awful! It is too bad that they cancelled it after making you wait. Fingers crossed that this was just a mix up and the seller will be able to rectify matters or provide a plausible explanation.

And if not... there is always the Cabotine. :)

BTW, have you ever tried ordering anything from Repzle? They look to be a Korean reseller site. I can’t read Korean but they have this deep red Cabotine which is to die for...

Oh ive never ordered anything from that site. The deep red colour looks very nice too. I hope the seller replies my comment and can clarify. The first Moynat bag i was ever attracted to was a gabrielle clutch but it was too clutch for me if that makes any sense lol the reporter fits my casual style better and it fits more so if this is not available i will have to be very patient and wait for another opportunity lol

That is super disappointing!!!! :sad: Red carotin will be super cute too tho!
The big beautiful store in NYC is closed down . Now only available thru Saks Fifth Avenue .

Is South Coast Plaza one safe from being closed down?
 
Hi guys! I've been reading this thread for a long time and just wanted to say hi and thank you for sharing news, photos and mod shots - so many useful information. Like many of you I've fallen in love with original Ramesh designs, so waiting for the local shop to open after lockdown to try on Gabys :heart:

BTW if someone's interested in Joséphine they still have a few on 24s.com with a discount and currently there's additional 10% off with ULTIMATESFIRST10 code. For some reason Js don't show up on the brand page, only when you search for them.

Welcome @cut_andpaste! From your post, it seems you really love peacock which I completely understand! Since you’re unsure about Prussian blue, maybe hold off on SO for now? The pictures of Prussian blue gaby pm you shared are beautiful but these colors are so hard to photograph, it would be best to see in person. I didn’t decide on peacock until I saw the swatch in person and in natural light. Since you wear a lot of neutral colors, Prussian blue would be a great complement to your outfits, but I just don’t sense your enthusiasm for it as much as your beloved peacock. Good luck with your decision but I do hope your peacock bag finds you!

Thank you for the kind words :heart: I can feel your spilling joy over your SO even after this long. Envious!! You can see through my mind lol To your knowledge has the leather ever come back later?

Welcome @cut_andpaste ! Im a newbie to this thread too and the ladies/gents in here are very kind and super helpful. I totally agree with @m_ichele comment here. It seems you are in love with the peacock and the prussian blue not as much. The SO order is pretty expensive so get whatever you are 100% sure you love or else i would think about it more and wait a bit.
I have a gaby pm in black and i love the style so much that i added a gaby bb in emerald and gold hw in my wishlist lol love the style because im a casual wearer and i only wear neutrals. The prussian blue would pair perfectly with jeans and the gold hw makes it even more special so id definetely would go for it if you ask me. I think if you are like me, this will not be your last Moynat purchase lol
Haha you have brought every classics of Moynat in your warbrode! Well done! Ya you can tell I’m less passionate about the second choice. I really shd think twice before placing an SO. Looking forward to more eye candies from you!! All the photos you shared made my day.
