I didn't really get the SOLD OUT thing either, unless they only got 1? Which I guess is possible. They had a Givenchy Pandora in the crinkled lamb about 10% under US retail, and I thought about that for 1/2 a day and it was gone.

I'll let you know what it's like and take some detail shots when it comes. Did you see the brown one with contrast stitching in the women's section? That one is quite a bit larger than the men's version at 40 x 45 and 20 deep (I'm getting good at the cm/inch conversion!) I was so tempted but I really need a good black bag. My workhorse Henry Beguelin is just toast -- corners worn through to the red lining. So sad :(

I did like the one you posted at the Corner -- the outside zip pocket looked handy -- is that what you meant?

All kudos to dcblam for her eagle eye and PM when she spied the top in my size. The shop guy in South Carolina emailed me and asked how I found them. I told him I was part of a cult! :graucho:

Thanks that would be great. I did see that one but like you I really need just a basic black bag. What I meant was I almost bought this one a month ago but thought I'd wait to see if it went on sale (which it didn't), and I'm glad I waited because the new season's version is nicer and has an inside pocket as well as the outside one.

absolutely :smile1: thank you! i think a lot of people were watching it go to 70% because no sizes were sold out and then they all went in a day :laugh:

This looks great! What a steal!
 
Top arrived -- wonderful! And the fabric is so much nicer than the beige one I sent back last summer, which had a crumpled feeling about it that didn't seem like it would hang out.

And, having gotten measurements on the bag I had my eye on from L'inde de Palais -- I ordered this tonight. They have a woman's version in a great looking brown that is a bit larger, but I really needed a basic black bag. Turns out they only had one!

OH goodie goodie! So glad that you're delighted with the top and that the fabric is much nicer than the the previous top - what a bonus. Glad to be of assistance, my dear :p

Cannot wait to see your new bag. Let's keep our fingers crossed that it's a commensurate replacement for your Beguelin.
 
WOW - PERFECT! It looks awesome on you - so glad that it worked for you.
Great pic, thanks for posting.

thank you :flowers:

in case anyone might be wondering about sizing, i'd say it runs TTS, mine is a 42 and i might have been interested in trying a 40 for the top but it would probably have been on the small side in the hips (i'm outrageously pear shaped :laugh: ).
 
oooo nice. and for python I was expecting it to be more expensive than that.

also interesting to see all the new things that have just been added to the site. haven't seen those pieces anywhere else.

Exactly! It isn't completely priced considering the size of the bag.

I am so glad that Antonioli got a hold of about four pieces that I've been waiting to hit the market this season. Bergdorf has a few pieces from the S/S collection but not so much of great selection. I'm sure they'll get another shipment from the s/s collection because dear god did I love that collection!

This looks great! What a steal!
I definitely like the handles better on the new bag too!
