i bought a gorgeous red balenciaga city bag on ebay recently, won it quite cheap as it no longer had its shoulder strap.

its lovely but i just prefer the look of them with their strap. and it is bugging me that there isn't one. so was wondering if any of you stylish ladies might know where i could find a replacement?

You'll probably find that a decent upholsterer will be able to source a pretty good match for the leather and make you a strap. I don't know what it would cost, but probably less than buying a hard-to-find spare part for a designer bag.

any use?

MoodyDidIt · 16/06/2013 11:37

oooh they are good cereal queen but they are not as wide as a balenciaga strap, people might think my bags fake Blush

and thats a good idea aswell nom, i have a bal city in another colour as well (which does have a strap) perhaps i could ask them to copy it but in red.....hmmm

Ask them to make you a wider strap, they must have all the equipment?
Or a shoe maker might help out, where do you live?
