Default For the amateur B buyer...

What is the difference between the Twiggy, the City and the Dix Motorcycle? They all look the same to me and they are seem to come in different sizes.

I believe Le Dix Motorcycle is another name for the First and the City - The first being "Small" and The City being "Medium". The Twiggy is a little bit different style of Motorcycle bag, its shorter and deeper.

QC, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong! LOL!

Do the inside tags change? Are they all silver or all leather?
I love that blue twiggy!

Out of these 3 styles, the First and the City have metal plates. The Twiggy does not, just the leather tab.
There's a pretty good guide on ebay about Balenciagas. It talks about the different tags and numbers:

Maybe that will help you a little more.
