If you've the time I would suggest to drop by your nearest store to give this a try! Then decide later?Yes black is almost mission impossible now. Crazy how they get snapped and how few actually come out.
I'm a bit worried about the metallic leather, if it's 'fragile' and shows wear and tear easier than caviar or distressed calf? Otherwise I'll definitely grab it!!

I'm not sure about metallic leather as I don't own any metallicbut according to @Chanbal her reissue metallic is holding up very well!
Gabrielle of Cruise2018!!! Yes plzzz !!Just a heads-up that the store manager told me she had ordered new Gabrielle colours for Cruise. She will send me pics the next days so will keep you posted! She didn't specifically mention black, though, but seems there will be another shipment in between.
I have to tell my story. I was just at dinner and was handed the bill with a pen and my receipt to sign. The pen had the cap off and sure enough I accidentally got a 2-3 inch ink mark on my new Gabrielle in iridescent light purple. My heart just jumped into my stomach when I looked down to see it. I quickly grabbed my clean napkin and dabbed it in my water and lightly buffed the bag. It came out instantly! I was shocked and thrilled! The bag looks just as it did before the mark with no visible difference or texture. This bag is proving to be more and more durable. Even the few scratches that I got on the bag are not visible in 98% of lighting and angles.
I can’t wait for the cruise collection of this bag. [emoji1303][emoji7]
So far, no insert needed...I do stuff it after I use it....I only carry once or twice a week.For everyone who owns the medium size gabrielle, does everyone recommend an insert to keep the shape or do you just use the bag is?

Thank you for your response! Which insert do you use or would you recommend?Honestly, it doesn’t really need one the same way an H Evelyn does, but it is useful to keep everything perfectly organized tetris style. I like having mine in there personally, even though I initially thought I might not need it.
