Hi ladies!

How does the RM team feel about offering the choice of "upgrading" to finished tassels on bags that normally come with plain tassels?

Also, how open are you to providing replacement tassels? I would be interested in purchasing some finished tassels to replace some existing ones I have.

I realize both questions I've asked are hard to answer given the matching of leathers, etc. I just think it'd be cool that for anyone ordering a bag on RM.com may have the option of short/long, plain/finished tassels. :smile1:

Hi Missmoz,

Offering an upgrade to finished tassels sounds like a really cool idea. This is something that our design team can look more into and we will pass the suggestion along.

Replacement tassels are also a great idea. Due to all of the different leathers (as you stated) we cannot always say if we will be able to find replacement tassels but we are willing to try our best to find replacements if you should need them!

Hi Team!
I am excited about Rebecca's venture into other areas. Are there any plans for leather dog accessories, especially collars - not only for little dogs but also for big guys like mine?
Thanks!

Hi Jojon21,

What a cool idea! We will definitely pass this suggestion on to our team.

Keep these ideas comin girls!

Hi Team,

I was wondering if you will be producing any more mini mac bags in black with silver hardware? Seems so hard to find nowadays and I have literally searched EVERYWHERE!
Thanks!

Hi Soulfly,

We have not produced any Mini MAC's in black with silver hardware, but it sounds like it would be beautiful! Stay tuned.... ;)

If I could personally talk to Rebecca herself, I would say please make more of your classic bags ALL the time. I was lucky enough to score a gorgeous black smooshy leather MAB 'old school' with the FDL lining and blue zipper, and brass hardware on Ebay. It's this bag that got my attention with RM in the first place and really makes me long for those bags. If these older style bags were to ever be reproduced EXACTLY as they were back in the day, I would only buy these bags because they're so functional and beautiful at the same time. I'm not sure but I think the black and white floral canvas lining was the most popular and I would love to see RM use something like that as her 'signature' lining. A lot of designers have one specific lining that belongs to that brand. Is that something that Rebecca would ever consider doing? Best wishes to Rebecca!! I just saw the fashion video on her website and when she came out at the end rubbing her belly, she looked so adorable!! :)

Hi Antonia,

Thank you so much for the feedback. We would love to be able to offer some of the details that you have described in your post.

Since we have used many different leathers in the past, it would be extremely helpful if you girls were able to post some photos of bags that you really love, and some close up shots of the leather. This would help us determine which leathers were used and if we are able to use them again.

I like the fact there are different sizes in the core bags, Mini Morning after, morning after, Mini Nikki, Nikki. The thing that is frustrating is the difficulty finding the smaller sizes, especially the nikki. Are the two sizing options still going forward in the upcoming seasons?

Hi Jeaniep,

We love being able to offer some of our classics in two sizes. We haven't made the Mini Nikki in a few seasons, but we will continue to bring it back for future seasons. Keep an eye out!

Hi. I just saw an Amethyst Mac, and I love the color, the leather looks wonderful, but I'm a big girl, I carry a lot of stuff, and I can't make it work with a MAC. Will that color be made in other styles? I could definitely use another purple Nikki, Purple Mattie, or MAB. 95% of all my bags are purple, and I'm unfortunately not finding many new purples in my fave designer.

Recently a SO purple Nikki never made it because there was difficulty in finding a purple. Are purples coming back? Please say yes. And I really love the new Amethyst, although my fave RM purple is the newer Violet, from about 2 years ago(just guessing) with the Birdie Lining. that purple is so thick, so chewy. It is nearly indestructible. Per your request here is a closeup of it.

Do look into putting up a store in Manila. Most of the other designers are already here. Two malls you can consider are "The Rockwell" and "Glorietta". If you don't want a full blown store yet, you can ask "Rustan's" to carry RM pieces. There is also a Retail Group here called "The Stores Specialist" that carry signature/designer lables. (Btw, I'm not in any way related to these malls/establishments). It will be amazing to have you here!

Thanks so much for the warm welcome!! luckycharms and travelerscloset - we are definitely working on expanding our store locations both domestically and internationally! There are a few shops in Japan that carry our brand now, and I am happy to send you a list if you shoot me an email at [email protected].
 
Hi RM Team,

I have a question about the new Tire Quilt Affair? Several sites have the price listed as $525 but it's on your site for $395. Is this a mistake?
 
Hi,
I bought a MAC Clutch from Shopbop two months ago and carry it sometimes. Now it wrinkles! Is it normal??

OMG! :faint: That is so beautiful cch33! I love leather like that.. I think you are lucky to own such a gorgeous MAC.. I aim for my bags to look like that. It takes me months, even years to get my bags to look 'wrinkly'..

Hi Knasarae!

Thank you for the information about the tire quilt affair. We are so sorry for the confusion and have corrected the price on our site. The correct price is actually $525.
