The New Kelly

[DallasDiva68]

I HATE IT! I think it looks plain. I guess I just admire the original so much that I wouldn't accept anything else - even from the same label.

Actually...I like this bag I do agree with Leyla though, it shouldn't be priced like an original Kelly bag. They should treat it like a modern, updated, temporarily available 'season' bag and price it likewise.

It CAN NOT replace, or even be judged like, an original Kelly bag.

But still....I like the look of it

How do any of you know the price on this bag so soon? [/b][/quote]
i dont.. but if its a KELLy then its the same price range as the birkin and what i meant was that i hope the opposite will happen when they work out the cost of it

As much as I agree with you Leya, I doubt that is what is going to happy. It is a leather Hermes handbag, it would be a rarity for it to come in under $3000, and if it is a limited seasonal piece, the deman might be high enough to make the price be actually HIGHER than a normal Kelly (a la LV multicolor collection).

Weird.

 

[ultramarine]

It looks like if someone left it on the car dashboard ...to melt!

that's also what I'm thinking....

 

[ignitioned32]

This bag would hardly look good on anyone holding it. The bottom is way stretched.

HATE the color, it's like sweet potatoe color-y-ish....lol

be prepared... this color (and its variations) will be all over the place for winter

 

[Fujyn]

It's really a new look I like Gaultier but i think the pic isn't great and the color of the bag is too flashy, i don't like the new Kelly ...

i know that thats whats gonna very likely happen.. but i wouldnt want it to happen, nor would i understand it

because HERMES compared to LV (for example) is NOT supposed to be a seasonal bag. thats why i would find it not very appropriate if it WAS a seasonal bag that would be priced higher than their original line

after all, the thing that made the birkin/kelly what it is today is its uniqueness...the "no" fashion side of it...

its hard to explain but i think i tried my best

 

[BritBagLady]

Nooooo! I just cant accept the proportions. It just looks wong.

 

[Acid]

how is anyone gonna be able to carry THAT on their shoulder without getting poked in the ribs by that bottom bit

 

[Sugo]

If he were to exagerate the proportions, I would have liked to see him take it ALLLL the way...right now it's neither here or there....
and regarding the colour,
i would like it if it was more saturated.

i'm sorry, but original birkin's and kelly's are plain looking too (not a bad thing), only diffference is this one looks like it was made out of a slouchy leather.

 

[PrinceOfCats]

I like it - the original Kelly looked like something a female KGB agent would carry...

 

[Sugo]

Are you trying to say that female KGB agents....aren't.....adventurous?

Looks like someone sat on it


I like it though B)

it does look like someone sat on it...

I think its terribly ugly though

 

[social*butterfly]

What a no no. Why mess with the classic design of the Kelly?
