I will leave this reminder as a sticky because tthis is often a thread that new members (or new Hermès lovers) post on - hopefully temporarily.
 
As expected Stock was low (fashion week) and no fun colors for Kelly today (didn’t ask for b)
Appointment was at opening today asked for Kelly 25 or 28 in pink and was offered :
- picotin touch in framboise (declined)
- Black kelly 28 swift leather GHW and framboise interior
I was really hesitant as I said I would never buy a black Hermes bag.
my SA told me that she only had neutrals no green no blue.
but the bag is such a classic bag and the interior made me fell in :heart: I couldn’t say no + it’s a special order bag !

It’s lovely…out of curiosity why no to a black H bag?

So pretty !
I assume the person who made this SO did not buy it so you were able to get it?

I live and work in a tropical island and a black bag is more like a winter bag to me.
i do travel a lot and That’s also why I said yes to this bag
Ahh that makes perfect sense.
i read your previous message as no black bags from Hermes (like a prior bad experience or something along those lines).
I guess it’s what folks say about H…never say never :biggrin: E
Enjoy your new bag :heart:

Congratulation! It’s amazing How many times did you applied for the appointment before you get it? And you selected only FSH? Thank you

I believe Hotel Plaza Athenee have such service.
Mandarin Oriental had this service as well - their concierge was not so helpful recently, however. Not sure if they actually tried though, as when they couldn't help secure an appointment they first blamed the guest for not making the request a few weeks prior to arrival, even though we did exactly that =/
 
Lol no I couldn’t do that to her. Coach and Kate spade is as luxe as she goes
I think she should apply and if she gets an appointment just explain the SA that the bag is for you. The only thing is that if offered a bag it has to be purchased by the person who got that appointment. (So she has to be prepared to spend 8/9000 eur for the bag)
I mean if my husband had an appointment I’d definitely be the one doing all the talking :biggrin:
