Hello I'm not sure if this is the right thread as I'm not really looking to find out the style name, but to find out if it's a made for outlet piece of this style. The tag of this Montaigne has Outlet stamped on it... I was just wondering if it was a made for outlet piece? What makes it different from the regular one?

Thanks so much, and if this needs to be on a different thread (or a completely new thread all on its own) just let me know and I'll fix it.
The colour of this Montaigne is Camel.
It was not made for the outlet. When seasonal bags went to the outlet, BV stamped the interior tag so that they couldn't be returned at the boutiques for a refund/exchange.
Or at least that's what I've been led to believe. I don't think they do this anymore though.
 
Hello ladies,
I'm new to BV, and just bought a vintage knot clutch in stingray / shagreen from a consignment store. And would be grateful if you could tell me what season or collection this clutch originated from! Thank you!

Not much information from the seller, as she said the clutch was languishing in her drawers for a few year. And since the hardware colour and dust bag is quite different from those of the BV bag (my first and only) I bought in the airport in August, I guess this model is really old?!

Any information appreciated! Here are the photos. Thanks again!

Where did you buy this? Private seller? Online consignment store? eBay?
Who provided the authentication?
 
Hi V0N1B2,
I bought this from a private UK seller through Vestiaire Collective, and the latter will do the authentication check once they've received the clutch from the seller.

I will then receive the clutch from VC after the check is done.

Ah, got it - thanks. So it's not technically in your possession yet.
I'd like to hear what VC thinks of this clutch. Keep me posted please :flowers:
 
Will do! Just bought the clutch on Saturday, estimating I'll receive it within a couple of weeks, if the seller has sent the clutch to VC early this coming week.

I'm excited about it, as it combined two things I like, the knot clasp and stingray. :flowers:
 
Please help me ID this bag. It is leather. It was purchased at I Magnin at least 21 years ago, as that is when the store closed down. I Magnin was an exclusive department store in San Francisco that would make Nordstrom's look like Macy's. It still has the tags on it, it even still has the paper stuffing in the back zipper pocket. Thank you!

It's a men's computer bag. In ebano. I think the treatment to the leather was San Marco from 2009 not sure about the year.
San Marco they padded the fettuce. Leather woven strip.
It made the leather even more lush
 
Hi ladies,

May I know what is the name for this model?
Is it a recently launched model?
The Identify this BV thread is here:

This bag is affectionately known here as "The Bella" and has been around since around 2007/2008
I think BV used to call it the Seamless Tote, but now it has the generic name of Nappa Bag, like everything else.
They introduced a smaller size this season as well.
 
Thanks V0N1B2 for the reply!
I wanted to check out the price on the 'prices of BV around the world' thread but can't find it.

I did not pay attention to this bag until recently, and now I am somewhat obsessed with it. Making it a personal goal to own it!:p

As this is not of the IT bags of BV, any chance I can find it it BV outlets?
