Hi, this might sound mad. I’m thinking of buying one as always wanted a lily but don’t need one so was looking for a bargain. So, found one and as expected some small wear on the back. Now bearing in mind once wearing it no one can really see it, could you not disguise that patch with boot polish? This is what I do with all my Mulberry corners etc.. to good effect. Clearly up close it will be obvious, but for the odd evening out, would that not be enough to not make it so obvious and possibly allow you to get away with it? I’ve never owned calf hair for this very reason hence my asking. What do you think? Just remember I’m only suggesting to camaflouge not repair, but I also don’t want it too look obviously camouflaged lol. Thank you
