I recall you mentioning Valextra before and I was so impressed with the line. That continues to stand, as I am absolutely wowed by the brand and the choices that it offers.
I own the Moreau Mune. It’s an outstanding bag and well made. It’s a clean look. Last year it was about $2,200 in the States. We have only one store in the US so it will be rare to see anyone with this brand.
You probably need to shop Valextra in Milano. 1. There is an outlet with decent pieces and slightly (not majorly) lower price. If you do not mind pop of color- it is better to shop there 2. In Milano service is nice in both boutiques
Anesu, Great Review as always. Thank you for pointing those lux brands out for people who are not familiar with them. Clean, rich, neat without the logos. The leather, craftsmanship and silhouette does the talking.😊😊😊
Hello Anesu Thanks for the great review. I’m passionate about the Iside.❤ To me they’re like crisps - can’t stop at just 1. 🤣 I’d add that the attachments for the strap on the sides of the bag are unique to the brand: slim, discrete, architectural - no clunky d-rings in sight. They add to the presence and sophistication of the bag. Valextra does made-to-order work in exotic leathers, and produce frequent limited edition collaborations with artists and architects. One of their designs is in the permanent collection of the Victoria & Albert museum. Personally, the small suits me fine, and can easily be dressed up or down. You’re right, the shape of the bag allows for surprising capacity. The large is a hand-carry only IMO - when full, the narrow Valextra strap creates sag on this model.
Thank you for watching! I like the crisp analogy! I didn’t know about made to order as I see exotics in store. Good point and it makes sense. I’m going to show the discreet attachment when I talk about Valextra overall. The limited editions are superb that’s where I would like to invest my money one day.
Hi Anesu, thank you so much for this great video! The Iside is near the top of my list for my next purchase and you showed it off so well. If you ever felt inclined, it would be great to see you do a video where you go in store and cover several of the Valextra handbags. You already did a great job on the Brera, but I'm also interested in the Nolo and the Serie S (plus any others you find key). So many great color choices! Unfortunately, there is no store in my city (Chicago) that carries Valextra at the current time. Really wish I could check these bags out in person 😍 Thank you!
Thank you! That would be a dream video! I’ll try my luck and see if the brand will agree. If not I’ll still talk about the brand soon. Fingers crossed x
Thank you so much for the review, Anesu! I've only discovered Valextra recently as I started to get interested in handbags (in general) 😄. I adore Valextra's bags very much and I'm considering to get one. Btw, do you know if Valextra bags are fully hand-stitched? Thanks!
Fab brand you won’t be disappointed. No they are not fully hand stitched. “The bags are hand crafted and assembled by hand in our artisan workshop in Milan the bags are stitched with a machine for durability and precision.” Valextra Mount Street Please note a lot of brands say hand stitched it’s likely it’s parts of the bag and other parts machine - even Hermès!
Could you do a vlog style video where you take us in with you as you ask the staff about the product? That way we can see what good service looks like, what it means when someone really knows and loves their brand, etc etc
Although I prefer white metal hardware, I could do the gold on an Iside in Valextra Green without regret. I'm eccentric, I wear these bags for every day. 😊 LOVE your content!
Hello Anesu! New subscriber here. I just bought the Valextra Mini Iside online and I've noticed that the leather of the front panel is a bit wavy. It seems like there is a bubble in between the materials of the outside and the inside leather. Is this normal? I've never seen this bag in person and I am just wondering if you noticed this when you were at the Valextra boutique. I love the bag and wanted to keep it but this might be a quality issue? Thanks for your reply in advance and more power to your channel ♥️
Hello! Without seeing the bag it’s difficult for me to comment. Have you reached out to the brand? There is a chat function on their website and I’m sure you will be able to send / email pictures. Welcome to the channel.
Thank you Anesu for promoting this brand, I have never heard of these brand before, they are certainly worth looking at, thanks once again for parting your knowledge about these under the radar brands, fed up of hearing all about mainstream brands that charge over the odds for less than their worth. 😊
Hello! I love your content! I am taking a trip to Rome in a couple of weeks and was wondering if you had any recommendations of brands I might check out in the price point of Coach? I would love to bring home a bag from an “under the radar” Italian brand as a souvenir! Thanks for your recommendations in advance!
Hi! loved the video and comparison! :) Inspired by another video I just saw, (where they deconstruct bags), how about Polene? Does luxury need to come at higher price ranges? Or are some other brands as Polene equally good. (I haven’t personally seen a Polene bag in person)
Thank you. Great comment! I’m talking about Polene soon your comment will tie in nicely with the video and help bring all the brands mentioned together.
Not that I’m aware of. Duret Paris are focused, as I’m sure you are aware, on custom bags and therefore create their own style or a style you would like.

Where is the store in the states found? Thank you!

Yes agreed. I’ve been to the outlet and I really liked it. The flagship boutique is like going to a fancy gallery I always enjoy myself.
Hello Anesu, thank you for yet another great review! This is so timely for me as I love the Valextra and have been considering it for a while:).
Hello Natalie!
You are welcome. You can’t go wrong with Valextra!

Haven’t seen you in a while, I hope you are well! Quality and craftsmanship all the way!

@@SoAnesu Thank you!
Thank you, Anesu :) Please can you tell me your thoughts on the Valextra Serie S medium for an understated work bag? Thank you.
I like it! Including it when I pad out this video ua-cam.com/users/shorts9b5w_9CoE4w?feature=share
Another great video! Thank you for the details on what they will hold. That is always the deciding factor for me.
It sure is. The old I’m getting the lighter i would like my bag to be.
I guess I need one of Each one for every day and one for elevated every day❤
I guess so!
Could you do a vlog style video where you take us in with you as you ask the staff about the product? That way we can see what good service looks like, what it means when someone really knows and loves their brand, etc etc
Great idea but it’s finding brands that will agree. I’ll try.

Alright let me know how you get on…

Hello, thank you for this video. Do you have luxury brand recommendation that is similar to Duret Paris?
Not that I’m aware of. Duret Paris are focused, as I’m sure you are aware, on custom bags and therefore create their own style or a style you would like.
Maybe you can take a look at Peter Nitz (Zürich) or Boarini Milanesi (Bologna).
@@ia8144 thanks will check them out
@@spacebluesmith9517😊 There is also G. Lancelot (Paris).

Was wondering if u can do a video on Bottega Venetta? Thank you❤❤

Hello!! I appreciate your videos and contents. I would like to request your review on a hand bag brand called Kwanpen - based in Singapore - exotic leather. Thank you!
Thank you. Their bags are beautiful but they left London during the pandemic and I no longer have access. I’ll take a look when I go to Singapore.
@@SoAnesu thank you for answering…really would love to here your opinion. I am really considering buying the 1819. Have a great weekend!!
