So BEE-Ooooo-Ta-Full!
And that’s great you have price protection from Ssense! My experience is that popular YSL items don’t go on sale but you never know! At least you got the old price! Enjoy your Loulou!It’s the Taupe colour! It’s lovely in person. I like that it’s a neutral that’s darker than the beige colours they have, so hopefully I don’t have to baby it as much.
I received my small taupe Lou Lou from FWRD (purchased in their 20% off sale) and there’s major wrinkles
the Ssense one I bought previously at a higher price is on the right, wrapped up. They don’t have any stock left at Fwrd so I can’t even exchange for another one.I’m ok with the creases but particularly worried about the 2 bumps that pucker out (circled in red). Is this normal? Will it relax over time?

don't think it is normal and no guarantee it will resolve itself over time. even if the bumps relax, unlikely the flap will look smooth and pristine. it doesn't look that bad in the photo but presumably it is more obvious in real life hence your concern. if it bothers you and/or may hamper your use of the bag (e.g. prevent you from using it in more formal/dressy settings) then you may want to return it and keep the pricier bag which is in good condition.View attachment 5408596

My experience is that these wobbles will actually get worse over time. Return if you can! It’s hard to find one with pristine leather and your Ssense one looks perfect, so keep that one!
Hi, I'm hoping someone can help. I bought a baby niki and decided to take it back for medium size. I just got home and was so excited to unbox and start using it. But I opened it to find it has no protective sticker on the magnetic closure, which makes me think it isn't new. For almost $4000 I'd rather not have a used purse. And what I'm hoping someone can help with, is if their medium Niki has a twisted chain like mine. I live about 3 hours from Saint Laurent stores so with the price of gas, it's frustrating to have to go back again.

Agreed. I’d definitely return it. Even with the discount, you still paid a good amount of money, and as wzy21 pointed out, there’s absolutely no guarantee that the bumps will ever be less visible.
Thanks everyone for your input! I’ve decided to return the damaged bag. The more I look at it the more it bothers me - the poor thing looks like scar face
We should be getting nothing short of perfection when we’re spending thousands of our hard earned dollars!

I'm glad you made a decision. Decisions like that cause me so much stress. Are you keeping the bag from ssense or waiting on a restock from fwrd?
I’m going to keep the Ssense one! Since it seems like it’s quite rare to receive one in such good condition.
Are you able to flip the chains to get the twists out? Not having the sticker wouldn’t bother me if the rest of the bag is perfect. It would suck to have to drive back 3 hours but if it truly bothers you, exchange it…
Excellent!!! That’s what I would’ve done as well. I’m sorry the one from fwrd didn’t work out…
