I was thinking the same thing. That's why I don't buy Rebecca Minkoff is I don't like that clip. It looks out of place on so many of her leather quilted handbags.
I’m so sad about the change 😭😭😭 I LOVED that detail about the Jackie and it used to be on my wishlist just later on. But now with the change I need to get the Jackie pre loved instead. Lovely chatty video.
So true I love the piston hardware and only want jackie with that one. I didn't even like the square clip they had before, but this dog leash clip one, I dislike the most
@@lillerella Yes. But it is commonly referred to it as a dog leash clip given that most of the consumers of this and aren’t horse riders but familiar with dog leashes.
I love the looks of the new bags, except like you said that dog leash attachment. I have the older style Jackie bag with the original closure and that is probably the favorite part of the bag for me. It’s super fun to open and close and it looks cool and unique.
I loved the Jackie bags in Rosso I saw in the Gucci menswear FW24 show and I prefer the piston hardware, too. Another entertaining and educational video - love it! 😊
Well the dog leash closure is a miss at that price point. So fun to see the new things ! Though the prices are nuts. Who buys these and where do they wear them? I want to see the crystal bag out in the wild in the sunshine!
I was in Gucci yesterday, and I just saw nothing that excites me. I did look at one bag, a vintage messanger bag that I love, but the damn strap was not detachable and it was a wide red and green strap. Crossbody didn't work and wide straps don't look good over the shoulder. I'm tempted to get it and cut the strap off and use a different Gucci strap.
Ugh! That dog leash clip on the Jackie bag is atrocious! It makes the bag look cheap. That was the next Gucci bag I had on my radar but I’d prefer it with the piston closure. I know the bag is a mainstay at Gucci so I am not in a rush to buy it, but it would be a no for me with the dog leash clip. I think overall minus the mini bucket bag, I think the new designs just look really boring.
I have a Jackie 1961 small in the brown/canvas variant and seeing Sabato’s just doesn’t do it for me. Comparing both in store they’re very different when using. I tried fastening the dog clip one handed and it was funny seeing me try.
Loving all of these bags, not a fan of the dog leash clasp however, it cheapens the look, sorry, “ safe space “. The bling bags 😱💎💙 The GG soft handle bag is to die for! That lush color, the sumptuous leather, I love where they placed the GG’s, this bag sings class and sophistication. I have noticed east west style bags are of the rage right now and I’m loving it!
I absolutely love the Crystal hello 👋 I’m Dee Dee call me Bling 😂 I do love the Bamboo Bag, the name stamped doesn’t bother me it disappears into the bag. So a splash of Gucci but still subtle but even if I could afford it and I love 💕 it I don’t do Patent leather kinda dangerous in Texas Humidity 😢 ok back to video tfs 🛍️👛🚢🙏😂
I hadn't thought of that- but you're right, Texas is not patent friendly. I usually just steer clear of patent leather unless it's the trim or a very small SLG!
I love the Rosso color and went to try it on. I did notice the clasp and was not a fan of it so I mentioned to the SA. She said it was the original clasp from the archives. This is a light champagne gold and supposedly won’t scratch as much as the previous clasp. I have been eyeing the Jackie for a long time and this color is so beautiful, it still looks nice IMO.
The Rosso color is so classic! And you're right- I didn't realize in my research that the dog leash clip was the original hardware. Which now that I know, I kind of respect the decision. The Jackie is fabulous!
I actually liked some of the burgundery stuff like the shorts and skirts, but heck the price is so crazy when knowing that Gucci is not at the top of the luxury pyramide. Also knowing that Gucci is selling in outlets make me feel kind of scammed if i was to buy new. I might just save the pictures of the items i like and call it a day.
I agree- the RTW prices are nuts! And I've been burned by paying full price, only for things to show up at outlets weeks later- it's a bit of a turn off.
Maybe its a budget thing, you know cash grab. Use cheaper hardware but increase the price as you can't convince me the pet leash clip is more expensive to make than the piston hardware.
I agree with you about the clasp change, it totally cheapens the look of the Jackie. My only thought about why they might have done this is because the piston clasp sometimes inadvertently opens when worn under the arm. I have the new Jackie released under Alessandro, in the medium size with grained leather (which I love), and on more than one occasion have had the lock release as I'm wearing it. I basically have to sling it back so my upper arm doesn't press on the clasp. They could have easily fixed it by moving the piston release to both sides, rather than having the button in the front, but I'm sure that would have been expensive, so they went with an easier, and cheaper, option. The claw clasp does remind me of the clasps on my Mom's Gucci bags from the 80's, though.
Gucci ruined the Jackie bag. I just found the piston clasp in black and grabbed it. My heart broke when I saw the new clasp it’s tacky and cheap. The small is $5,000 in Australia.
I actually refused to buy the new jackie because the new closure looks cheap. I have to keep searching presale market for the Jackie in the older closer 😢
Not a fan of his stuff…… yet! And I would say a lot of his bags are giving coach vibes…. Nothing against coach I love coach but for that level of luxury there should be more depth. Especially when you go monochromatic and modern you have to bring in technicalities that are more material based or the way it’s put together. I was a huge frida giannini fan. She always put together amazing textiles, materials and it was such a vibe. I will be watching De Sarno’s growth as he’s so new. But what I’m seeing is a lot of folks praising Gucci is back and they’re happy it’s not the theater/circus clothes…. But no one’s buying it?! While i believe Alessandro’s clothes were not for everyone especially the way they were presented on the runway, they still as individual pieces has a unique look that you can’t find anywhere. I remember people lining up to buy his Gucci clothes and accessories. I highly doubt that would happen now
Omggg the attachment looks like rebecca minkoff bags. What is going on with Gucci, did they produce their bag in the same factory as rebecca minkoff’s bags??? Mammm allegedly 😂
I want Gucci to be classy and sexy, not crazy like it's been during the last couple of years so I'm all for a change. Don't like the dog leash clasp though, very Rebecca Minkoff.
Its actual technical name is a “swivel-eye snap hook” which is used for attaching tethers to animal collars or harnesses. But dog leash clip is so much easier to say. 🐶
