Hi Ladies, I need some help please! I am new to this forum and this is my first post. I just purchased a white Box B-bag but was told by the SA that it was a Twiggy. I am a little disappointed because I thought I had purchased based on the Twiggy I saw on display. I was excited because the SA brought out one from the back stock. They do look similar but I thought I was taking home a Twiggy. They do not have any white Twiggy's left and the Manager says they won't be getting any more white B-bags in.

My question is the Box does not seem to be very popular on this forum. Is there a reason why? Can you tell me why you purchased other styles vs the Box? Or why you chose to buy the Box?

I am thinking of returning this for a black Twiggy... Thanks so mcuh for your help & advice! I appreciate the help so I can make a decision!

I have two Twiggys and no Box. The only reason is that I like the size of the Twiggy. It holds quite a bit more. The box is nice too.

I have a box and I think it is great! It is a bit smaller than the twiggy and a bit more squared, but does look very similar overall. If you are not 100% happy though, exchange it for what you really want!

I had a city and sold it - too large and flat for me - I had a twiggy and returned it - too long and reminded me of a loaf of bread! I do have a first and I DID have 2 boxes which I also sold - only for a monetary reason! However, I loved the box a lot - I liked that it was wider than the first so it held a lot more - plenty of room - I just did not like the twiggy size at all! JMO...

I have a twiggy and a box and size-wise, I totally prefer the box. But I am hanging on to my twiggy because I adore the color so much and the size is less of an issue now that I am used to it.

By the way, I posted a similar question a while ago, wondering why the box wasn't popular around here. Not one person said they didn't like it. It is just more unique and rare on these boards. I love my box!

On that Everything Balenciaga thread there are some lovely Box pics. I had never seen a photo of one before, but it certainly caught my eye!

Great choice! I really like the style of the box, although I admit I wasn't crazy about it until I saw it in person. Things seem to stay very well organized in the box. I love my city but I often feel like I am endlessly searching for stuff lost at the bottom of the bag!

i have the twiggy and box but i LOVE the twiggy so much more. somehow the box just looks weird on me cos the sides stick out in an unnatural way whereas the twiggy just slouches nicely.
