Hi all,

I'm after one of these. I wanted it in red but it's discontinued. It's only available in black and rose beige. I don't really wear black - I like warm, deep colours and jewel colours. I don't have a black bag so maybe that's reason enough to go for black.

Beige would be more my thing as a neutral, but I'm just not sure. (I want the red!).

They only seem to do two colours. Maybe they do a seasonal one at times?

Any words of wisdom?

TIA

It’s a nice bag but the beige is very brown.

I be not seen the red available for years.

sansucre · 06/07/2021 20:44

They used to offer quite a few colours so the fact there are just two colours makes me think they're phasing this style out.

If you want a red bag, find another red bag, I don't think you'll be happy with this particular bag in black or rose beige.

It might be worth looking on Vestiaire Collective to see if there are any red Disco bags. If not, so many designer brands make bags almost identical to this style that you'll find something similar. (The fact so many other brands have copied this style is probably why Gucci have discontinued it.)

Thanks. Yes, and it's only available online now so I do think they're phasing it out.

I'll have a look on Vestaire Collective. Thanks.

I had a red one, but sold it, great bag, perfect size but I have just too many bags. My friend has this bag and its pretty much identical to the Disco, lovely leather and well finished.

Have you tried vestiaire?

Miseryisabutterfly · 06/07/2021 22:17

Sorry, I see pp has already suggested that!

Miseryisabutterfly · 06/07/2021 22:19

Maje had a similar bag a while back in red if that is of any interest.

Miseryisabutterfly · 06/07/2021 22:21

Brand alley had it at one time! Fecker to have missed that!

Thanks everyone.

I've never used Vestaire before but have found a good red one, and a camel one and now I can't decide between the two!

I saw the one on Farfetch but I'm not sure I trust them. Not heard of them before but have done some rooting around and there are reports of fakes?

This is the Camel

I really like the camel! Would be gorgeous in autumn/winter.

NinnyNewName · 06/07/2021 22:46

Yes, and I like the slighly metallic tones of it. I'm an "autumn' colour wise, so it would go with lots of my clothes, and it would go with more than the red, I feel. I bit less in your face too.

It's also £150 cheaper than the red one I've found.

Farfetch are fine, completely trustworthy. It's a network of independent boutiques across Europe, including Browns in London. It's based in London and Natalie Massenet (who founded Net-a-Porter) is at the helm.

You wanted red, buy the red!

NinnyNewName · 06/07/2021 23:19

Oh wow, I didn't know that. Their reviews online aren't great so I was worried.

I do really like the camel but omg the taxes (the bag is in the US) add up to £170!!

I have ordered several things over the past few years and have had no issues. Refunds have always been dealt with promptly too.

If you're considering buying from the US, check out TheRealReal too and also ReBag. I have bought from the former although it tends to be clothing.

NinnyNewName · 06/07/2021 23:50

Thank you @sansucre. I have the red one in my basket but Farfetch have sent me a 10% off voucher for signing up to their email list, but when I go to add it at checkout it says my purchase doesn't qualify. I can't find anything to say why. I will need to call them in the morning.

(Although I still like the camel - not seen one that colour before).

I have the red one & adore it. It really lifts plain outfits. Because it’s small it’s not in your face. I use it for evenings out mainly or special days out. You can get a camel bag anywhere, but really gorgeous red bags are hard to find! It’s a lovely true red too, not too orange, not too blue.
Can’t believe how much they’ve gone up in price though since I bought mine!

IveNameChangedAgain2020 · 07/07/2021 00:34

Farfetch are great and I order from them loads but discounts always exclude Gucci (anywhere!)

thebestever · 07/07/2021 07:51

I also have the red and I adore it, it goes with everything. I also have the camel - I bought both second hand but they're immaculate after a lot of use.
The camel is a little dull but the red is my favourite bag ever!

sansucre · 07/07/2021 07:56

@NinnyNewName Don't waste your time calling, it will be due to brand exclusions that various brands (usually Gucci, Prada and Celine to name a few) have in place and are never part of these 'goodwill/new client' discount offers. It's the same on Net-a-Porter, Matchesfashion, 24S and other websites of their ilk.

NinnyNewName · 07/07/2021 08:40

As I woke up this morning in my bedding, and read your messages I thought "of course it has to be the red, duh".

Ordered. Grin

It's in Portugal and I paid a little extra for expedited shipping. I also did a lot of reading about Farfetch last night.

@Journeynotdestination it's a lot of money for me to spend on a bag, but I've been after one for a while. I can tell you that they do hold their prices very well, even 'good', not 'excellent' condition ones.

Thanks everyone.

I think red is the right choice. Hope you enjoy it when it comes!

Journeynotdestination · 07/07/2021 10:55

Yay! You won’t regret it OP. BTW, I use a handbag organiser in mine to avoid the interior getting marked. It’s by Tintamar, but plenty on Amazon too. Definitely takes the stress out of using the bag when I have makeup etc in it. It fits inside perfectly.

Need pics when yours arrives! ❤️
