Chloe 'Silverado' Bag

[koeeeeee]

The python Doctor's high pricetag could be attributed to the bigger size and hence, bigger quantity of python skin used?!?!?! Thought the python silverados were sufficiently pricey but it seems that Chloe is on a pursuit to outprice her own successful and popular predecessor bags... Example is the Paddington which started off with a friendly pricetag then with its success, *BAM* there is the lizard Paddy this season which costs more than double of the leather ones...

I may consider the leather Doctor next season ...Are you currently considering a medium Python silverado?

The fact more python is used on the doctor certainly has something to do with it, but still, it's overpriced I think.

I am considering a medium Python silverado, but not having much luck finding one at the moment (the fact that I dont live in the US/UK, can only purcahse online or mail order doesnt help). I had the change to buy the indigo and the silver brown one before but didnt and now am totally regretting it!

No they normally take couple days you can call them now I think is 7 hours behind us if you are in OZ now.

Thanks klow-chloe', I might give them a call then.

I received an email from Chloe Bahrain a couple of days ago. At that time they had leather, but not python, silverados.

Thanks SoCal!

style101 is spot on!! The (new/current) Gold which LVR had is similar to the one on the Bergdorf site. It was still available when I perused the website a while ago.

The Spring Summer '05 Gold is more bling bling and very, very gold indeed with the leather part in yellowy beige or buttercream colour. The Gold python part is in one solid gold tone. The new Gold appears less bling, less goldy and the leather part is in tan or camel colour. The python part is in several shades of complimentary gold/ivory colours, almost iridescent too, rather than in one solid gold tone as per the Spring Summer '05 Gold.

drel 39, please post pics of your fabulous new silverado when it arrives. You must be getting it soon yes?

baghag, hopefully i'll be getting it soon... they have to wait 2 weeks for the paperwork to ship the python bag to the States... thanks for the info about the f/w 05 gold - saw it on BG website and getting excited.. hopefully it'll be neutral enough to wear with tons of stuff... will post pics when i get the bag!!!

Someone tried to sell me this chloe bag online. Anyone help to see which colour is it in? I can't seem to make out the colour to be black or dark brown.

I have my leather silverado here, and the "Chloe" stamp on that bag is in quite a bit different font than mine (mine was purchased at NM). I'm a bit worried that the bag you have in the picture is a fake.

 

[LilyGirl]

yeah, that stamp looks wrong. and I'll bet the tag isn't even for that bag.

I've quite liked the Doctor, despite many discouraging comments from those who have seen it IRL . Saw a Chloe ad in some magazine of the leather Doctor bag with the bag on the shoulder of the model who, with the typically skinny arms could put the short handles over her shoulders . The huge leather bag was juxtaposed against a typically flowy feminine outfit on the model. The "hard & tough bag against softer, more feminine clothes" is so typically characteristic of Chloe.

Count me in as one of the "few fans" of the doctor style. I like that it kind of looks like a slightly more formal or dressy version of the regular silverado.
And I've also seen the regular red leather silverado and agree that it's much nicer in real life. Looks much more striking than the neutral shades IMO.

Looks like there's already another silverado to start craving for the next season (because I absolutely cannot buy another bag this season) ...and we are not even halfway through the current FW 05-06 season . Hope there'll be an even more fabulous shade of brown for the leather Doctor next season...

I thought it looked interesting in dark grey!

I received the "natural" python in the mail today on the advice of a Saks SA. It is light-medium brownish in color. It is going back to the store immediately...don't like this color!

Did you get the natural colored one that linsdey has, or is there another color?

 

[SoCal]

It is a peach-ish brown python with cognac leather trim.

Saw post 1065 of Linday with python. It is not the same color. Tag reads "naturel" on the one that I received from Saks.

 

[Guessgirl96]

that good that it's not the same color, the light natural color I was thinking of is gorgeous, youd be crazy to give that up! Do you plan to get a different silverado instead?

 

[SoCal]

Not sure...bought the Lanvin Kansas bag today... Should wait until at least October, huh...
