Opinions on velvet bags? Are they a trend or a classic?

Jimmy Choo - Bon Bon. This bag is an inch and a half short of being the perfect evening bag. Exquisite design? Check. Luxe velvet? Check. Gorgeous light gold hardware? Check. Exactly the right amount of detailing? Check. Can be hand carried or worn crossbody? Check. Inch and a half too small to easily fit my phone? Check. It's 5.5 in. long, and needs to be 7 in to easily fit my phone. Sigh. Still going to keep and love this bag!

I think they are cool. Timeless because they are so chic every winter.

I agree with you. I got them during the recent winter sale at 30% off so they're both at very good price, €1015 for the small Kate and €875 for the WOC! They both look stunning that's why I'm in this dilemma as I can only keep one of them and have to return the other. I have 2 weeks left to decide!


Yes velvet has a so special look, I don't see myself carry velvet bag in summer either as it's hotter and hotter each year with the climate change
Please showcase your bag once you receive it and let us know how you like it!

Could you post a photo of tan red actual bag?

Here they are, I got it in store after already debating between the 2 of them. I'm still waiting for the delivery of the WOC that I ordered online.
The true color doesn't come out on photos, it's a burgundy, like velvet's classic color.

Thank you! Your velvet purse is beautiful! So classy!
