My apology the brief Valextra snippet I showed doesn’t have the all important interior picture of the bag. I’ll include a detailed interior snippet next time I talk about the brand.
@ So Anesu! Hello dear , can you please talk / cover the customs issue regarding with travelling with your luxury bags at the airport? I mean when to declare your purchase both dupes and authentic ones.
I love your presentation style Anesu, your videos are very engaging and informative. Thank you for the hard work you put in to producing these for us 😊
I've owned a Valextra Iside bag for about two weeks now. I love the clean lines because I live in a tropical part of Florida and wear summer clothes year round. Bags with a heavier look wouldn't go with the light weight fabrics in my wardrobe. Since I have to order everything on-line, I relied on your videos and those of other influencers to make my decision. I'd never seen the bag in person. (I did mark up a cardboard box with the dimensions of different sizes to decide on size.) So, thank you for your detailed reviews.
I want to thank you for the great content you regularly put out. I tried multiple bags from the mainstream luxury brands but really wasn’t loving anything. I also never cared for the traditionally hyped “Holy Trinity” bags. But because of you, I learned about the Valextra Brera and the Loro Piana Sesia bags. I knew the moment I saw them that they were perfect for me, and I love using them everyday! Please do not stop educating us and filling a unique and needed space here on RUclips!
I like that the minute you saw them you knew they were perfect for you. Two styles I’m also fantastical about. The Sesia gives me purpose to work smart and one day own it! Thank you for watching my content.
Hello Anesu, I agree with your placement of Joseph Duclos. I have the Diane messenger bag in noir with phw. It really is beautiful and perfectly made. I really enjoy your videos. Well done and well articulated. Thanks
Hi, do you need to get waitlisted to buy the Diane? I’m planning to travel to Europe on holiday in a few months and was planning to buy the Diane when there. But I was concerned that when I get to a store they’ll say I need to be in a waitlist. Thanks!
No waiting list to buy the Diane bag but you may want to go on their website to take a look at the new leathers and colour options as you will typically need to preorder although they do have some bags instore. www.josephduclos.com Enjoy Paris!
Another helpful and engaging video, thank you! The JD Diane looks so rich... love it. Interesting to hear that the Delvaux Brillant has that issue with stitching. I've never heard that before and while it is still one of my holy grail bags, at that price, you're correct, shouldn't be a problem.
Interesting video, and your content is a notch or two above the competition in terms of “quality” as well if I may, very informative. Though I disagree with you on one point: I find Delvaux superior to Moynat when it comes to quality (we own a brillant and a flori). I’m also wondering what you make of Dior: prices for their iconic pieces have skyrocketed, but unlike Chanel, quality doesn’t seem to be an issue so far - still worth it?
Thank you that is kind of you to say. On this on I have to agree with you as it’s a Nicholas Knightly creation which doesn’t compare with Ramesh’s higher quality. Unfortunately I don’t follow Dior closely it goes against high quality under the radar. The little I’ve seen hasn’t been bad.
I have yet to experience Joseph Duclos in person, but the value proposition at that price seems like an absolute STEAL! Since I've discovered your channel Moreau and Joseph Duclos are at the top of my want list, brands that I would not have known about if it were not for your expertise. Excellent work as always.
Agree completely, and yes thank you so much Anesu! Your content is always my favorite.......i either learn something new, or my likes/dislikes of priducts are confirmed 🥰 I always wait eagerly for your newest video 💕
Hi Anesu. How would you rate Aspinal of London's products? How comparable is the Mayfair bag to some of the similar shaped bags you have mentioned? Would love to hear your opinion. Thank you.
Hello Aspinal is an entry level of luxury specifically affordable. Good brand for its level. Leathers, craftsmanship don’t compare at all to the top end brands in this video.
Hi Anesu! I absolutely LOVE your channel!! I'm a young doctor and looking to invest in bags. Many years ago, a friend told me that her dad, who is also a professional (a lawyer to be exact), would use luxury items in front of his clients as it is a sign of success. Now, as a professional, I wonder if the same goes with my patients. What do you think? I'd love to be educated as well between the different types of leather (pebbled leather, crossgrain, etc). Again, thank you so much for your content!!! :)
Ha interesting one! No medicine is different understated all the way. I’ve spoken about the different leathers in some of my videos let me try and find them and I’ll include the links below.
@@SoAnesu Thanks for replying to my comment! Interesting POV as well! I hope you can elaborate though as I want to hear more of your thoughts about it. :) I actually don't mind these luxury items as well when I, myself or have a loved one, checked, as talent in medicine usually comes in a form of referrals from colleagues. However, when we have our medical conventions, that's when people start showing off their bags and jewelry - especially when you're in dermatology or ob-gyne LOL (PS. I'm in pediatrics. As much as I like everything cute, I'm planning to retire my baby pink canvas tote bag for a more professional looking bag!! Ha ha ha!!)
You forgot to add plastic / cosmetic surgeons to the list. I can imagine what the conventions must look like. Although I’m a little over branding now. Yes I’ll elaborate in a video or two.
I might have a chance to travel to Paris later in the year and I am really excited to check out some of these brands you have recommended, especially Joseph Duclos and Moreau - would really love to see their handbags in person! Thank you for your informative videos as always. ☺
I always look forward to your videos! ❤️ On the Diane bag, what size is your suggested on? Do you prefer a L20, or is it too small and one gets more value from a L26?
Hi Anesu! Thank you for all your informative videos! I was looking for small leather goods earlier this year and I found your channel. I enjoyed your contents a lot and I ended up of buying several pieces of slg from Valextra and Delvaux. In general, I agree with you in your notes about the two brands. However, after half a year of wear and tear, I have to say the quality of Delvaux is much higher than Valextra, in terms of their slgs. They are priced more or less the same level, but I am having problems with the edge coating of Valextra's card case and key case. Now you might think it is the way of me using it, however, I own the key case and presented the card case to my partner as a gift. Almost at the same time, we found the same edge coating problem. I took my key case to the boutique and they have been very helpful and promise to repair it for me. I never find problem with Delvaux goods and this made me end up buying a tempete instead of an iside even though this means I saved longer for the bag. I am not making complaints here, but I wish to let you know about my experience. I guess with iside the quality might be better than their slgs. However, considering the quality you get with a similar amount of money (I am talking about slgs), I will definitely go for Delvaux from now on.
Hello Ning! Thank you for watching my content and I appreciate more your feedback. I’m going to create a video looking just at Valextra bags and I’ll ask for more detailed feedback as I haven’t as yet heard any negative feedback about the bags but it’s good to always know good and bad. I’ll also reach out to my senior contact and let them know as this helps the brand continually improve. Glad you got the Tempête please let me know how you are getting on in a couple of years time. Maybe then I can tempt you to add a Diane bag …
I thought I would see Colombo as one of the top 5! Joseph Duclos, my only wish is that the clasp is changed to something else because It reminds me a lot of the religious "cross" in my eyes. (I know why they had that design)Thats the only one thing that put me off that particular bag. Otherwise its lovely. 😃
I did for a second consider them but they have just 1 style (Dione soft) in leather the rest are all exotic skin. Exotic skins are priced out of the reach of the vast majority of consumers €15,000+ on average. All the brands I’ve suggested are within reach of a lot more consumers. The clasp is a tricky one, and I understand, especially if you are not a practising Christian or religious at all, which I am. Thank you for watching my content.
I agree with you Liz, with the exception that as a Christian, the fact that the clasp is inspired by a "goddess" is my hangup......it bothers me and I just can't get past that. Hopefully JD will come out with other designs using the same heritage leather and beautifully made but more subtle hardware in the future.......i am anxiously waiting because JD bags are the most beautiful I have seen yet
Thank you. The Sesia is same as Valextra it’s on premium core but it deserves to be in super premium! Wonderful bag. ruclips.net/video/3I2lKUtwhJc/видео.html
Thank you! Asprey is ultra high end same category as Chanel, Hermès and Joseph Duclos. Their bags are perfection. I hope you will be in love with it forever it certainly will last forever!
Hi Anesu, this is a great video and I think your list is spot-on! One question.......do you know what Joseph Duclos uses for the edging of their bags, do they use beeswax as well?
I think these videos may help answer your question. ruclips.net/video/anoAWUnAC7I/видео.html ruclips.net/video/B_AheW6ZKNY/видео.html ruclips.net/video/7BTqDeNUreY/видео.html ruclips.net/video/VF4hEPRg1ds/видео.html ruclips.net/video/IOJnqKUJ-wY/видео.html ruclips.net/video/G6lBK6GIR3o/видео.html
Also if you have time in hands would you mind deep dive on english brands such as starthberry, aspinal of london, and demilier. And or some french indie brand such as polene, fleuron and atelier auguste. Or some asian indie brand such us osoi (south korea), songmon (china) and cafune (hongkong) 😊
I’m not too sure i understand your question. Blue is not a colour I would personally consider for a handbag and I don’t necessarily look for specific colours, definitely not black though, just what stands out.
I find it interesting that the ‘top’ bag from each brand is a top handle, 9 times out of 10. Why is that? Is it the most classy? Or the most involved to produce?
I know right?! Drives me bonkers but I think it’s purely a case of what the market/consumers want! If there wasn’t the demand they wouldn’t make the bags.
Seems lately they are quite heavily marketing themselves and with their newly store in Harrods whatnot, perhaps thats the reason for the increse in price.
Hi Anesu, Can you able to check out the fashion brand Khaite by any chance? Khaite is an American brand that do quite luxury The Row like vibes, the most well known product is the cardigan I believe, the brand have range for products like the leather goods and handbags, I have been keen with their bag but wondering if they are great quality for the price.
My apology the brief Valextra snippet I showed doesn’t have the all important interior picture of the bag. I’ll include a detailed interior snippet next time I talk about the brand.
@ So Anesu! Hello dear , can you please talk / cover the customs issue regarding with travelling with your luxury bags at the airport? I mean when to declare your purchase both dupes and authentic ones.
first of all , you look gorgeous and that hair colour compliments your complexion, second thank you for yet again an insightful video

Love your content!! Thank you for doing this video, some people have quiet luxury mixed up
Thank you. I’m here to help!
Hi, nice content. I really like all of the bags, but the last one really looks like my Celine 16 bag. It's very similar look. It's beautiful
Thank you! It does! A more spectacular take especially when you throw in the gold detailing and the calf leather. It sure is a beauty.
Ms Anesu as usual another excellent video. I agree with you about your ranking. I wonder where does Goyard fit in with the quiet luxury? ……….🤗🇨🇦
Umming and arghing their totes are not quiet luxury their signature print is distinct and becoming more noticeable. Has to be a no from me!
I might have a chance to travel to Paris later in the year and I am really excited to check out some of these brands you have recommended, especially Joseph Duclos and Moreau - would really love to see their handbags in person! Thank you for your informative videos as always. ☺
Awww I hope you do the shops are 1 minute apart! Travel safely and have fun 😍
Very educational thank you so much for such comprehensive video

Hi anesu, I’m curious to know what is your favorite blue luxury bags? Can you please do a video of that?
I’m not too sure i understand your question. Blue is not a colour I would personally consider for a handbag and I don’t necessarily look for specific colours, definitely not black though, just what stands out.
@@SoAnesuoh I see. I’m interested to buy a navy blue bag but not sure which brand should I go for.
Thank you for the reply elegant anesu💕🌷
It’s depends on your budget and taste. Which bags specifically do you like the look of?
I find it interesting that the ‘top’ bag from each brand is a top handle, 9 times out of 10. Why is that? Is it the most classy? Or the most involved to produce?
I know right?! Drives me bonkers but I think it’s purely a case of what the market/consumers want! If there wasn’t the demand they wouldn’t make the bags.
I was ready to buy a Delvaux bag but they also raised their prices like all the other popular luxury brands too bad 👎
Seems lately they are quite heavily marketing themselves and with their newly store in Harrods whatnot, perhaps thats the reason for the increse in price.
Aww I’m sorry! Bags are still worth it though, I think, you are getting superb products!
At a fraction of Hermès and Chanel!
The result of being owned by Richemont! We are going to see more and more!
Price increases I don’t think have anything to do with Harrod’s marketing but running costs and brand equity.
Would you say that the price points associated with each level of the luxury hierarchy are the same in US dollars vs. pounds?
US$ is a little weaker than the GBP£. £1,000 is $1,250
Hi Anesu, Can you able to check out the fashion brand Khaite by any chance?
