If RC in Epsom stays true like before, you’ll still have that option. The other reds I find closest to RC is rouge garance and rouge vif, but I don’t believe is in production. I know some might say rouge de coeur is close but to me it has orange undertone. I wonder if SO in chèvre, how the RC would be.

Have you considered rouge vif? I was able to get one in Togo last year so I think some colors you can snag even if they’re not in season. I went back and forth between RC and vif for years before finally deciding on vif. RC looks best in epsom IMO but I did not want an Epsom birkin.
I got a Kelly Danse a few months ago in Rouge Vif in Jonathan leather. The red has a brownish undertone too ...... I can't really tell the difference between Rouge H (on espom) and Rouge Vif (on Jonathan). They look very similar. Both with a brownish undertone ......
I am thinking about a bag in togo leather (for my next quota bag B25) or swift leather (for a Kelly Pochette because my SA doesn't think they are producing them anymore in response (she hasn't seen one in espom for some time)). I wonder what shade of red will be a true red in these two leather options ......
Hi @Ball, perhaps you want to check out Rouge Piment. I was looking for smaller K in RC, to replace my K32 RC in clemence. My SA knows I love pure deep red, and offered me Rouge Piment in Veau Madame, and I can’t be happier ♥️ Hope you get something that you love super super soon!

Just got offered b35 gold with GHW. Love the color and hardware and but ideally wanted a size 25 or 30. I can live with a 35. Should I wait (don’t know if I’ll be offered again) or buy it?
I agree with periogirl 28, wait. A birkin 25cm/30cm will definitely show up. Have you tried the different sizes of birkins on for comparison? I bought a 35cm same specs, all be it a few years ago, and had to rehome her because she was just too heavy on her own and even heavier when I had all my essentials loaded in.
As I told Ryan (the most amazing SA at San Francisco) —Gurl, I’m shook.
Here’s the bag of my dreams. Birkin 30 touch made with Alligator and Ostrich in Violine/Cassis. Lined with chèvre and topped off with PHW.
The photos barely do it justice. And yes, I was actually shaking I was so excited.
