Official MOYNAT Thread

[DoggieBags]

Is the NYC standalone store coming back soon? I went to Saks today and there weren't any Moynat SAs on the floor; other Saks SAs came by to check on me and told me that they were all at another store and would be back in a bit.

I had dropped by to take a look at the new bags (I learned that the Baluchon is a fun sized bag - totally not the impression I got from the promo materials) but mostly ended up chatting with the SA that came back. I asked her very nicely to hint to HQ to keep the Rejane 23 around Also saw this new Gabrielle design on the floor:

I was at Saks week before last and as I passed the moynat section, I noticed there were zero moynat SAs around. I wasn’t there for bags so didn’t particularly care but I thought it was odd to leave their booth completely unattended.

My SA at Saks left so she introduced me to assistant store manager who also told me he quitted few days ago. I dont really know what going on with this brand. I think it got stuck in a mess. Very sad

Not a good sign. As a whole.

I wish they made Rejane or Gaby in Mésange

Fellow Moynat lovers,
Got some news from my SA in London:
Looks like they're discontinuing MM size for Gaby and Gabrielle (including SO, unfortunately ).
Voyage in Prussian blue with GHW will be available this autumn.

Just recently got a preloved Danse MM in Aubergine - and it's such a great everyday bag, especially for days you need to carry a laptop or an ipad with you. All this changes in bag line up make me want to collect more Ramesh-era designs . Hope to get black Gaby GHW MM later this year before it's too late

This seems to tally with my recent special order enquiry - I got quotations of prices for Gaby bb and pm but not mm. I thought they didn’t have enough leather of that colour to make a mm…

I was also debating getting an MM Gaby, either in Taupe or Black. I thought I'd have more time since the last I heard from my SA said there were no plans to discontinue those. I was planning on making that a 2022 purchase or so.

What is going on with Moynat's communication and messaging though? Also, discontinuing one of their most popular bags because.....?? The MM may not be their most popular size, but I don't see anything that is similar enough to replace it in Moynat's current line.

I think the decision to discontinue gaby mm was made last year, but I can’t remember if it was during Ramesh’s tenure or after his departure. There’s still a Gaby MM at the South Coast plaza boutique if anyone’s interested. I can’t remember the color because my attention was divided at the time but I think it might be black? Glad I have my Gabrielle MM, it’s a good size for a day bag.

I'm with you on that one - was planning to get it later, cause my bag budget has suffered a lot of damage this year already. And I don't like buying under FOMO pressure...
MM is a great daily working bag, fits a lot without looking too bulky or big. But what I don't get the most is stopping SOs for it There are no losses for company in that case and no risk of overstock...
The current line is too focused on structured bags imo, it's good to have options.

I’m with you on that. I think the Gaby MM is perhaps the only bag (aside from the canvas tote) that is large enough to fit documents if used as a work bag.

Hi all, I’ve just bought my first Moynat today, a Gaby bb in taupe and gold hardware. The bag is so beautiful, the quality is amazing. They only have the large box available so I opted for no box, the SA told me she will keep one aside for me when the small boxes become available.

I’ve also got an envelope card holder with the old logo, to be picked up in a few days as they have to transfer stock.

Hi again, may I ask for the gaby bb, the interior is light colored calf skin, my new bag has a scratched interior, and an indent I am guessing is from the shoulder strap being placed inside the bag without the dust bag. It is much obvious in person, can’t really capture on photo. Is this acceptable? Or should I exchange it?

I knew this upon buying, I thought it would not bother me, and would like to know will it get scratched up anyway. TIA

With this type of lining, minor interior scratches and marks will be inevitable. Personally I am not bothered by it, but if it really bothers you, you might be able to get a custom liner for it or get a small one. However, since the Gaby BB is small to begin with, I wouldn't really recommend it.

I feel better about it then, I was thinking to use a small pouch as a catch all instead. thanks for your reply!
