YEah, it's not huge...could be closer to 30cm actually...or even 35cm. I was in a hurry and didn't quite make out the measurements. It's definitely not a big bag...I would say 'just right' for carrying purse, mobile, makeup etc.

This is the size I saw and held. Photo: Style.com And going back to an earlier post from Ilovepositano, it would seem that it is the medium 30cm wide. Btw, it fit on my shoulder.

Anyway, so I confirmed my order for the powder (it is def lambskin, cream is calfskin) and tried to place a deposit but they said no as the shipment is not confirmed yet. Anyway, I am first on the list apparently so hopefully if it does come! I really wanted the larger one that the girls were carrying at the Celine show, but they are only getting the medium (about 25cm wide?).

But NAP will have some for sale, right? So I just have to make sure that I snag one when it goes on the site. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

hi girls! REPORT REPORT:

finally met Ivonne at Bev Hills.. she called the NY buyer who basically said everything that was produced, they will carry. There will be powder, cream, luggage, and blush (like a brown), plus a black color. the cream really is a cream color, not white.. similar to the cream boogies you see hanging around in neimans..

now.. both Ivonne and the buyer think the large and long are the same thing, just that the large slouches so much it ends up looking like the long when its sitting.. (yeah right..)

in the lookbook, the large that we all love was listed as 'non commercialise'.. yet somehow this months Wallpaper* magazine (below) showed that one and listed it at 690 euros.. the large is also in their catalogue..why celine is still promoting the large.. who knows..

also, the lambskin powder color might be more pink than we think it is.. i got to see a sneak peek at the stam dress which is a shade or 2 lighter than the pink in the tfs "warn" bar rather than white.. (btw.. the dress is stunning.. and also has a hidden modesty button and a zip on side)

clandys are arriving at the end of this month, and the dorine is in store already..

Ivonne is a bit flaky but super-helpful.. she is willing to post items to you on consignment for you to choose.. and the waitlist at her location is around 7 ppl or so.. (positano, i think you're 3rd on the waitlist)

i'm torn btw the medium and the long now.. unless NYC wakes up to reality and does a special order..

I am quite awlfully confused by this Celine bag.

Went to Celine's store in Hong Kong today and saw the powder color, I like it very much but I am not sure if it is lambskin or anything. They say they might have a larger coming but I am not sure if it is the runway that we all loved....?

Pinky, thank you so much for the inforamtion! Karma!! However, just to clarify,the price in the wallpaper mag is 1400 euros. The 690 euros price is for the skirt in the pic.

Thanks for the great report Pinky!! Tried to give you karma but got the message about having to spread it around. I'm still a bit confused about the sizes (wonder which one I have coming from NAP????)

The SA from Celine Singapore called me yesterday, to inform me that the bags have arrived.

I asked if they have the exact bag that Jessica Stam was carrying on the runway, and the SA said no. It does not have the side pockets. So, I guess they only have the medium sized one too.

[kare2711]

^^ Yah I got the call too. No time to go down and have a look though

[PrincessImp.]

^Hmm, that may explain the 3 missed calls on my cell! (all from the same number, but I didn't pick up because I was asleep at that time probably!)

So is it for sure that Celine SG doesn't have the large or the long?

[ilovepositano]

found some other pics on (wireimage.com)

the medium is a little bigger than i pictured...

i also am confused now what color the "cream" was on the runway. all style.com and elle.com pics show a pretty optic white. however, in this picture, it does look cream.

i'm drooling on my keyboard looking at the large powder. it will be so tragic if NAP doesn't come through...

if no large poweder, is everyone planning on getting the medium powder over the large (or long) cream?

[ilovepositano]

and sorry to respond to my own post , but excuse me!! is that a croc powder fanny pack??

[cinderbellas]

^^^I'm going to take a pass if I can't get the large powder. Thanks for the pics positano.

Posi - I plan on getting the med. powder if the large doesn't come through but it will be a disappointment in a way. If I had never seen the large, I'd really like the med. - but - I do like the large ALOT more. Wish we knew for sure about this. Thanks for posting the pics - so pretty!

Thanks for the pic positano. If I can't get a hand on a large one then I would get the medium in powder. I hope NAP will have the large.
