I'm 5'2" and the large bucket was too large for my frame. The mini was just perfect! It is also very roomy, I could fit my wallet, small books, TI-84 calculator, and an umbrella!

Here's a good thread for you to read through!

Thank you, this is super helpful. Looks like I made the right choice!

I have actually found with our dollar that the bags they had have always been cheaper rather than converted.
But they have now had a huge decrease making them cheaper than what they are in USD converted.
I bought the mini mini again because it was such a good price at AUD$435 (USD$311).
You can ask them to put you on the wait list for a bag. I just returned the camello rosa which they should get back today. If you go on the wait list they will tell you when one is back in stock and hold it for you for 24 hours so you can buy.

I think I didn't order with them I had no idea when they'd get stock, I also didn't know how much they sold the bags for.

Oh thanks! I didn't know they did this! Was there something wrong with your camello rosa? Or you just had a change of heart?

I have a camello azzurro and when I put them side by side the absolute only difference was internal colour. I felt it was a bit over the top to have two identical. I have quite a few buckets now in different sizes and colours but these were identical.

Ugh. So after 2.5 months of waiting and being told they expected stock of the black/flamma on October 22nd I contacted Bergdorf Goodman to cancel and.... They can't. They said my order is about to be shipped out and they best they could do is put in a request to the store to cancel it. I know I will love the bag but I don't love paying $166 AUD more than NAP for it :(.

ETA: You have got to be kidding me. I asked NAP to put me on the waitlist and I just got a email saying the bag is in stock and they'll hold the bag for me for 24 hours. Please, please, please be able to cancel my order within 24 hours!!

They probably do but the shipping is so expensive here it's probably no point.

I contacted them again and I think Neiman Marcus Online fulfilled the order because I had to be transferred over to them for someone to tell me the bag had been shipped :cry:. Oh well, would have been nice to save the $166, nothing I can do now.

I got my regular camello rosa bucket. It is gorgeous and perfect. It fits my body perfectly as a crossbody.

How much will it soften over time?

For the ones who have had and used their bag for a year or more, does it get noticeably softer with time?

Thanks!

I have had a black flamma for almost a year and camello for a few months. Neither have softned much. The ties have a bit from being tied up. A work colleague has had a black with black interior since mid last year and she's used it every day and hers doesn't appear to have softened either from how it sits on her.

I am glad mine haven't softened though, the stiff structure of the bag is what I like about it.

They do not really soften up much.

I'm interested in getting mini bucket in Rosa/Rosa
but couldn't decide which leather i should go with.
I fall in love with smooth calf leather
but also heard that Saffiano leather is more protecting and more structured.

Could anyone tell me on how their calf leather in Rosa/Rosa wear and
does it stay structured over time?

Thank you!
