Today an online buddy sent a white city for me to look over and possibly buy. I have never owned a city so you would know my excitement....and she was selling at such a great price too.
So the bag arrives and like a kid on christmas morning i excitedly open the sleeper. and lo and behold....the fugliest balenciaga i have seen in my life. omg cristobal will turn over in his grave ten times over when he sees the sacrilege.
color: instead of white, bag was more like a gris fonce (probably a little lighter).
leather: instead of the smooshy, oh-so-supple leather bbags are known for, the leather on the bag was dry, flaky, peeling in some areas.....like paint was applied and over time has cracked and peeled.
interior: 2 ugly patches at the bottom to cover 2 ugly holes
hardware: white at the tips (they looked like little eyes)
i have just recently been addicted to balenciaga and after seeing this bag, im scared for my babies. is this supposed to happen to a 1 year old bag or was the bag just abused?
