Moma, in my opinion the plume 32 is a large bag. I am 5'5 average build and I can in a pinch get it over my shoulder. It is not very comfortable for me as the bag is a few inches deep and of course boxy. You should definitely try it on in person to see if it works for you. I prefer the 28 size for my needs as I like my bags light for carrying. Plumes are really cool as totes and more elegant than the Garden Party. I just love the structured design and lines. Let us know your thoughts once you've visited the boutique to try one on!

I agree, you should try it out in person. I can bring mine to our next meetup Momasaurus :graucho:

Well. I found myself one. Am so pleased about it too, a teenager dating back to 2000.

Jadeite, I've been following your discussion of Gulliver with respect to this gorgeous bag and I have to say, had the Swift version my SA offered me looked like this (Paris sent gold Swift instead of the barenia we tried to order:nogood:), I would have whipped out my wallet in a nanosecond. This is divine, the Swift, not so much. Is Gulliver that much different from Swift?

Jadeite, uber gorgeous. Is it barenia?

Hi lanit thanks. It's most likely gulliver though there was a good amount of confusion as I I initially thought it was Barenia too - definitely feels and looks like it.

Hi textile girl this is my third gulliver bag so yes I enjoy the leather more than swift. Gulliver is sturdier and seems to withstand aging well, feels "thicker" compared to swift. I do like swift very much but stay away from big bags because it tends to slouch.
