I love the Violet...but if only it has a regular HW not the Giant one

 

[oceanharlot]

I love it! it is the perfect grape purple!

 

[Beautiful Stranger]

i think that is the most beautiful colour on a Bal i've ever seen. Wonder if they'll do a messenger in it..

Ooooh I want the violet!!! This will be my B bag for this year!

 

[kimair]

love the violet...i'm waiting for the new lune bag in violet/black...

i saw the escapade yesterday at neiman's in sf...
it's the same width as the weekender, but about 4-5" taller...
only comes in giant hardware and is $2195...

the second pic gives you an idea of size...i'm 5' 4.5" and wearing flats...

 

[RealDealCollection]

^ Thanks for the pics, that's a big bag.

 

[PursePrincess]

Kimair...I need that bag for school!!!!

 

[kare2711]

Yah it's big! It looks big on you, but in a good way. Think it will look too too big (not in a good way) on my 5'2" frame.

 

[Beautiful Stranger]

i love that is it bigger/smaller than the weekender?

 

[leyla m.]

thanks for the pics kim!
that is a massive bag... i am still waiting to get my hands on my violet and marigold!!!

Does BalNYC have the Violet City in RH yet? I asked Daphane to put me in the book but haven't heard a word from them. Anyone know?

 

[exoticarbcqen]

^ nope. I called and they said that the only violet colored bags they got was ONE violet part time in giant silver hardware....everything else should be in shortly...Im on the list for the day with giant silver hardware...but I also put myself on the list at aloha rag too just in case..

 

[Miz*Bags*Behavin]

Thanks Ms. Exoticarbcgen. Appreciate your input.

 

[exoticarbcqen]

^ your welcome.

you may want to call them because they called me earlier today to tell me that my "marigold" day with giant hardware is in and she said its GORGEOUS. I am sure it will be....Yellow and purple are very in this season, I am forgoing a chanel GST w/ silver hardware at the old price of $1750 for this bag..so it better be nice hehe

 

[kimair]

i love that is it bigger/smaller than the weekender?

it's bigger than the weekender (taller, not wider...they're the same width)...
it only comes in giant hardware...

 

[exoticarbcqen]

woohoooo my juane/marigold day with giant hardware is in today!! too bad I am not going to be there when it arrives at my house

 

[PrincessImp.]

I got a call from Bal NY today that my Grape work with GGH is in!
It's being shipped to me now and I can't wait for it to arrive

 

[nat_attak]

^ yay PrincessImp.! can't wait to see pics!

 

[pamiegirl]

The violet's gorgeous with the GSH, am looking forward to seeing it with the GGH now!

I was really close to calling around looking for a RH grape work today but decided against it. The color is very pretty but It's really the bright colors that call my name the most. Cant wait for the electric blue!!
