If your Store Manager has arranged an appointment with the Store manager in George V, I am sure you will have a good chance to get what you want. I would try and see what they offer in that appointment and if not what you expect then give a try at FSH.
I don't think they get many customers asking for size 40 and that's something good.

It is worth trying in Milan since you have specific colors you want, but George V has a good selection of bags, and I echo the fact that B40 is easier to get than 25, 30, 35. If George V doesn't have the bag you want the SM may let you SO it.

Hi, everyone! This is my FSH story and I am not a good writer lol.
Went couple of times to FSH myself but was told that they have no Kelly's in stock, but I can check Sevres store if I want.
Yesterday I decided to line up with my husband and get two appointments. Since I was a bit over the idea of standing in lines in winter, I almost didn't go to FSH yesterday, but then decided to give it another try and lined up around 10.10am. Our appointments were for 12pm. So not so many people in line this time of the year.
I was told no Kelly's again. But my husband, on the other hand, managed to get me a Kelly )) He told SA that my first color choice was etoupe, then any other neutral, then "fun" colors, any hardware (but preference for gold) and Togo leather (although I was ok with other leathers as well, but my husband called me asking about leather choices and he couldn't understand word "epsom", so he just said Togo [emoji23]).
His SA was very lovely lady, she helped to get the accessories for the bag and I think she chose nice stuff, cause my husband doesn't understand women's fashion and could have been sold on anything less nice and useful. But she did great. She picked twilly, rodeo, insert ( and passport cover for my husband).
I am not sure about the insert since I can see its edges pushing leather when bag is closed, but I already shipped boxes home, so can't exchange it.

((Overall most of the staff is very nice at FSH, day and night comparing to my home store. The other day I tried to see if I can pull the care tag off my new beanie hat (not a Hermes hat), but it didn't work. So to my surprise few second later I saw SA with scissors coming my way lol And I was not makiView attachment 3570589View attachment 3570589ng a scene out of it, so don't know how he noticed that. Also I was not trying anything on or buying. That was very nice of him.))

The bag is Kelly 28 Retourne in Bleu Nuit Togo with GHW. I am tall and at first sight retourne style seemed smaller than I expected, but it still looks good on my frame. Next time I can expand my choices to size 32 retourne which will probably look like 28 sellier. Cause I think 32 is easier to find.
Thank you all for your helpful advises and stories! View attachment 3570575View attachment 3570576View attachment 3570577View attachment 3570578View attachment 3570579
I put the twilly on the bag myself, so it doesn't look perfect. Have to practice.
