Red flap at Saks; came on floor today

[cjj]

This is NOT a caviar flap; NOT a caviar flap. This is a calfskin flap, w/silver hardware, red is a blue red. Silver C's on front of flap (which has a magnetic closure), shoulder strap is all leather. Size is same as Jumbo but a tad thick. Price is $2600 (just had the price increase) and tage reads "Classic flap handbag". They are ONLY receiving this one, according to the manager there.

Info: Saks at Chevy Chase. # is 301-657-9000. Ask for Designer Handbags and then ask for Marilyn. Bag arrived yesterday, she placed it on the floor this morning.

ALso: white w/silver, black w/silver and black w/gold Cert totes, for those looking.

i wonder what ligne this is from... sounds interesting.. shoulder straps are entirely in leather... not in the traditional chains?

 

[fashionispoison]

i wonder what it looks like...hmm interesting. bet it's gone by now though

 

[cjj]

^Correct, all leather, no chains. Brand new and only one came in (and it's the only one that will come in). HTH

 

[addisonshopper]

sounds like the hidden chain flap

Cjj, is it this one? I think it is called the modern chain flap?

My Saks (BH) had new ones in Red and Blue. It is quite small, but very cute and looked durable w/ sturdy leather.

^^^that is not the modern chain flap. It might be a lady braid flap?

 

[cjj]

Nope, not like the one in the pic. This has NO hardware ANYWHERE except the silver double C's on the flap. Gorgeous blue-red. ANd let me tell ya, business is/was DEAD there today. I spoke w/her at 7:30 this evening; bag is still there. She had 5 people in all day (and one of them was me).

 

[spiralsnowman]

Oops, you're absolutely right, lulilu! :shame:

Hmm. I am intrigued about this hardware-less flap. They didn't have anything like that at my local store, would love to see a pic.

Probably the hidden chain bag.

Jus wonder, what is that? if only there is a pic to show here, it will be great!

Could it be the soft handle bag? I know NM's has/had black and white.

 

[ladydeluxe]

yeah it's probably the hidden chain flap, i saw it in the boutique in a hot chilli red, everything is in leather except the big CC logo.

There is a the new bag from Cruise that looks a little like the hidden chain line, that comes in "red," but it is really pretty coral red. Hmm.

^ yes i think with the piping right? but the straps are in chain not leather...
