Will it fit my phone and keys without me having to pack them in tightly? Any Mulberry camera bag owners please advise! Thanks!

I have an Alexa camera bag that’s ten years old or more and it fits my purse, keys and more. If you Google it, it might give you an idea of the size of mine compared to the one you are looking at.

Thanks! I've got the measurements, I just can't quite get my head around whether they will fit "in real life". Already made one expensive mistake and don't want to make another!

Found it - yours is double the depth for a start - may need to think again. Thanks!

I change my purse quite regularly and I think the last time I used it I used quite a small compact purse.

Missuspotatohead · 15/03/2023 19:13

Yes but nothing else really.

PenguinLove1 · 15/03/2023 19:17

What is the name of the bag you are looking at? I have a couple of smallish mulberry bags so may have some idea depending on the actual bag you are looking at

Teamladybirdladybird · 15/03/2023 19:20

Honestly - id take care before purchasing - im a big mulberry fan and frequent purchaser and ive never seen that style on their main website, and on ebay at the moment there are over 30 brand new with tags models of this for sale, but not a single used one?

It looks as though this is a made for outlets cheaper style that people have been buying in their sale shops and trying to sell on for a profit.

If its the mulberry brand you are looking for I wouldn't buy a style that wasnt one of their classic ones tbh - the classic styles hold decent resale value, this style wont

Aspinal do a nice size of camera bag in a variety of colours - i can fit a small purse, keys, large iphone and lipstick in mine no problem

Take your point - it was on the main website just after Christmas however it quickly disappeared and I have seen the style in outlets too which did make me wonder if it had been on the main website at that time purely as they were trying to sell them off. I have a couple of other Mulberry's but had not spotted this camera bag style until then. Interesting! I had already looked at that Aspinal bag as another option and it's good to hear it fits what I would need it to - thank you!

I saw these at cheshire oaks the other week and they were quite thin. I reckon you could get a small bunch of keys, a phone & a very small purse in but not much else. I thought they would be boxier to be honest.

Totalwasteofpaper · 15/03/2023 21:57

I have the aspinal one and really rate/ recommend it.

Rina66 · 16/03/2023 06:38

That Mulberry bag advert says it's made in China, I thought all Mulberrys were made in the UK?

Isabelle70 · 16/03/2023 06:58

@Teamladybirdladybird my daughter missed out on getting one from the Mulberry sale but got one from the Bicester outlet. It's smaller than expected and I can ask her for a photo later of what she can fit it in.
I would say it's quite slim compared to other camera bags.

Isabelle70 · 16/03/2023 07:00

@Rina66 the smaller items seem to be made in China or Vietnam.

MyBloodyBrother · 16/03/2023 07:02

@Rina66 Most Mulberry products are now made in China. A few are still made here.

OP - I have this bag and it fits my iPhone and my car keys. It’s pretty tiny and would fit a card wallet but not an actual purse.

mynewusername2023 · 16/03/2023 07:03

I've got a couple of coach camera bags and they can fit masses in. Purse, medication pouch, tissues, mini hairbrush, at least 3 lipsticks, face powder and brush, two sets of keys, glasses and then it has a slot on the back for a phone (I've got a big phone). Plus they are much better priced than Mulberry.

Teamladybirdladybird · 16/03/2023 09:21

Thank you all! Now leaning towards the Aspinal A bag.....

Teamladybirdladybird · 18/03/2023 09:22

Have now settled on a completely different option, a Whistles quilted Bibi. Arrives this week, will see how it is...
