They must have done because a pre-loved Chamonix found it's way to me a while ago as well, LOL! Based on the gorgeous pics on this thread, it would seem that a Plume elan needs to get on my radar, :graucho:. I wonder though, are the elan straps more easily worn over the shoulder than the regular Plume straps or is the elan really a hand-carried bag as well?

Thanks everyone who contribute on this thread. I thought I am set to have Bolide as my next purchase, after going through this threads, I want a Plume!

I like both bags but I have to say the Plume is right for every occasion and is such a chameleon, the whole character and vibe changes depending on the colour/leather

For you,knowledgeable members, any info or links about Plume would be very much appreciated!
So far I was able to find that Plume translates into feather and based on the bag used to carry blankets.
And info for one of my bags.

Raisin box Plume Élan 28 in H motherland. Alas the bag is no longer with me as I realised I needed the regular size. A good home it has gone to though.

Ms. Piggy awesome pic and loving the new to me élan! Perfect for nights out - that said I do love my regular plume for daily use! I love that it's so under the radar too

Ms. P, you look elegant in the plume elan! I had one too and it was too dainty on me, but looks gorgeous on you.

News flash to the plume lovers - A 28 is winging its way to me and I can't wait to have some fun with it! I'll post photos as soon as I reecieve it and all checks out!
