I saw that tri-color bag at aloha rag yesterday- really cool to see all the different colored leathers together. there was one with a little bit of turquoise popping out from inside of a fold, so unexpected and beautiful. balenciaga makes the most beautiful colored and softest leathers... I wish the bag had been bigger, it was just too small for my uses but really a cool idea!

yeah i wish the tricolors came in a bigger size.
because i already have two other bags similar to this one in shape/size.
if they had a tricolor bag in a larger size, i'd buy it in a heartbeat.

will they be making gunmetal a regular after the 6 months? I dont like that there are like 30 different styles now with 4 different types of hardware. It makes it harder to find what you want and seems to kind of water down the style. They should go back to the basics.
^I agree. They are just banking too much on the same theme now. Its fine to have many style, but really the moto is loosing some of its classic appeal with the constant addition of more variations. I wish they would just do the small, medium, office/work, voyage, and one messenger.

^^ I have to disagree with both of you.
I like the variation. I am not a fan of the plain motorcycle style bags, I am very excited that they came out with the bigger hardware. The RH is just too boring and plain jane for me. I think the bigger hardware adds extra *umpf*.
although, on the other hand I am not sure why and who wears the work style with the big hardware..it looks like luggage. I like the first--which is fine in RH and I adore the day, in big hardware only. The city is ok, I just wish they would make the handle drop bigger so that it could fit comfotrably over the shoulder on girls who arent 100 lbs. I am approx 133 lbs now and 5"7 and the straps of the city fit snug on my shoulder....its uncomfotrable. I stick to the day bag in giant hardware.

exoticabcqen...the dark green/almost black bag was not anthracite...
neiman's didn't buy that color for s/s...
it was probably vert fonce (which looks very dark under their lights)...
the vert fonce had giant hardware, and the steel was RH...
they might be gone now though...
the day i was there, someone bought a steel rh city, another girl bought a mastic rh city, and someone was looking at the black GSH day...
guessgirl...i'm actually hoping they do add the gunmetal giant hardware because i'm not a fan of the gold or the silver...
they seem to only work on certain colors...
i bet the gunmetal will look great on a black bag...
mjcouture...i have to agree with you...some of the new styles for fall, like the round bag are just wrong...
and i really miss some of the styles they have phased out, like the purse and the shopping...
