Spring 2018

My Heritage Croco crossbody in black-white ombre also has that Longchamp Ribbons lining. I think the plainer lining works well in that case because the bag is kind of busy.



My green Legende Vernis satchel also has that same Balzane lining. Of course these are long-discontinued bags.... probably other discontinued linings too we aren't mentioning.

Fwiw the muslim/denim lining on the Roseau Crocos isn't totally plain. It does have the occasional Longchamp horsey here and there.

Ah, good call, Cosmo!

I guess we should differentiate the Denim lining from the ivory Muslim lining found in the Roseau Heritage line and the discontinued LM Cuir line since the ivory Muslim doesnt have that logo (which is cute). Actually, I shouldnt call it Ivory Muslim; it's thick Cotton Canvas.

My Amazone is ready for her first trip out tomorrow I opted for the Small size because the Medium is not available in my country.

When I went to pick up the bag (I decided to pre-pay a few days earlier to guarantee a bag would be available for me on 17-18 May), some interesting things happened:
- My boutique had just received the 2 colourways of the python-embossed Amazone and a Black Quilted one in a size SMALLER than my Small i.e. XS! All with dark hardware
- The boutique also received a Small Quilted one in Black but the price is 47% higher than my plain one. Wonder why it's so expensive when the difference is just the quilting and dark hardware

Woohoo congrats to you!!!! The Amazone has definitely grown on me and I intend on getting one, but I'm waiting to see all the fall color choices. I like the small or extra small (been admiring the extra smalls for months in these sets of official Longchamp pics). It is disappointing to hear that the quilted ones will be so much more expensive. Enjoy your beautiful new bag!!!

Thanks so much! Can't wait to be bag twins / cousins with you!

I have to admit being blur cos all along, I thought those Fall pics had just the Small and Medium sizes haha! So XS was a revelation to me the other day Well we know blue and burgundy are other colours for FW18

Paris Jackson and Cara Delevingne carried the extra small at Longchamp's Fifth Ave party a few weeks ago. It's a good evening bag size, but I liked your small size too when I tried it on. Very practical and roomy.

Yay! You got it! Carry it in good health, my friend!

As for the quilting being more, generally, most companies do charge more for any style that requires more stitching. It's one of the reasons why a wallet cost more relative to its size; it's not the amount of the leather but the amount of stitching it costs to make it.

I did see these pics and I really thought the Small must be so small - didn't occur to me that it's an XS haha. Guess we can only see things if we are looking for them

Thanks so much! Noted about the stitching adding to costs

For weeks now on instagram I’ve been seeing these floral print Pliage bags but I wasn’t sure what to make of them. Now this was just posted by someone who works for Longchamp in Belgium, so I guess they are legit. Not sure if they’re being released for the spring or fall season but posting them here in this thread anyway.

That is soooo pretty. I might have to get this bag. But I can't wear pink pants. I will wear white pants with a black top or something.

I think this soft-coloured pink bag is a great neutral that can go with any colour so no worries about matching

That's one beautiful LP I'd love to carry. [emoji7]

The new floral print is called Le Pliage Anemone and will be released for fall, so going forward I’ll post pics in the fall thread rather than this one.
