DISCUSSION Am I getting older or is burgundy suddenly the prettiest bag color? 🍷

I’ve always thought this style looked a little too mature, but this color is making me reconsider.

The deep burgundy with gold hardware is such a pretty combination. And that pebbled texture looks really good up close.

For transparency, I’m connected with Fiona, the seller of this 187 Factory bag. Sharing it here because I’m genuinely curious what everyone thinks about this color and style.

Is this giving quiet elegance or grandma vibes? 😂
Would you choose this over classic black?

A burgundy leather bag is so elegant and classy looking. The color is so rich.

It’s giving classy, not in your face with massive branding logos! 😍

The only reason I don’t like the burgundy is because the interior is the same color. I already have the taupe and the black 38 is my next purchase.

The reason I like it is because it's understated - no huge logos, just classy and luxurious, and the leather feels really premium

I really like the weight of the 32 and how it feels under my arm when I carry it. I honestly didn’t think I would like it as much as I do.

Same. I got black one from 187 and it is an amazing bag. Aside from me loving black bags in general I just love the contrast with burgundy interior. I do really like burgundy bag but I agree that interior and exterior are same. I’m also cautious because it is difficult to rep particular shades so black was a safer choice

I really like black too. Black just feels classy and goes with everything. I think it better meets everyone's need for safe, easy-to-match outfits

Here is mine. I actually own a few authentic CC but they are evening bags that I’m careful with and I really wanted this one for travel. I also can’t justify 10k for something like this so this was my very first rep and I really love it. I also treated it with sapphire mink oil and tumble dry and it is perfectly slouchy, supple and is now very close to authentic. It is no longer boxy and sits perfectly against the body.

Smart thinking! Sometimes I question if the taupe color is giving off fake vibes. 😩

I think nobody will question your colour to be honest. Even if there is a tiny shade variation. I think we get more paranoid

Can you give me an idea of what you paid for a 38? I love this bag and I’m thinking of buying one. But I’ve been quoted different prices from $350-$550
