Not a dumb question at all! I had to look into it too!
Sellier is more structured, Retourne has like rounded corners.
So the black one usually has rounded corners but if you dismantle the bag and literally turn the sack inside out, it is “Sellier”. They make the bags the same but just turn the bag inside out for the Retourne style :smile:
First one is Retourne, second pic is Sellier!

This is my black with GHW. As you can see, I turned the sack inside out to make it Sellier rather than Retourne! (FYI, I was so excited by a black Herbag that I bought it and only realised it was Retourne when I got home and compared it to my orange one lollllll).

I agree with @mularice What you really want is a sellier and not the retourne style, so I think you should return the bag and wait for the sellier version with ghw :loveeyes:

I'm after a Herbag but I really dont know what kind of color, so I'm waiting until I will feel that this is the right bag. What I do know is that I want a sellier:graucho:

Guess what :biggrin:
My Hermes SA rang me this morning for some other items I was getting and lets me know he has the Herbag in GHW :nuts:

I couldn't have said yes fast enough and I even got it already, and it makes my heart sing. I love GHW and I'm so glad I got it because it looks soooo much better on me than the PHW.

Lucky I didn't remove the plastic from the PHW and will be returning it now.

Considering how it can be turned out to make it Sellier, I'm ok with it being Retourne although I do like the retourne style too. But at least I have those choices, like almost two bags in one! But the GHW is simply what I needed.

@mularice you were absolutely right when you said I needed GHW and that to wait for it. :biggrin: Can't believe it happened so quick!

I'll post back with some pictures soon!

@Magdissz I haven't seen a Sellier Herbag in GHW but that would be awesome too!

Omg this is great news! Congrats! We are bag twins!

Btw I haven’t treated my Herbags with anything and they seem ok. I got caught in the rain with the black one yesterday and I just “brushed” the water off and it didn’t soak in or leave any marks.
Im slightly more concerned about the orange one because I think it will leave water stains if I get it wet. So far no marks!

I notice that you're wearing santorini sandals. Are they comfortable and true to size?

Have these too and very comfortable.
I’d say they maybe are a teeny tiny big bigger than TTS. I would say I have wider than average feet and was worried these might be too narrow but they weren’t at all.
I’m usually 36.5 TTS but these are 36.

It does go on the back of the bag, but it can also be used to secure the bag . SA told me this is how to lock it , picture however belong to an online search as I don’t normally lock mine .
Hope this helps! ;)

Thanks so much. That makes so much sense now. Hahaha. I was scratching my head thinking how the hole on the strap would work in locking the bag from behind.

Love all you TPFers helping me with these silly things. Thanks so much!
