Perforated Balenciaga Bags
The Balenciaga Motorcycle Bags are mainly known for their wonderfully distressed leather, the limited seasonal shades they come in, and hardware details. But this season, the design house of Balenciaga has added a few new twists to their handbags, with one being an outline of perforations. Pictured above are two perforated bags from the upcoming fall season. When I first saw these, they instantly appealed to me. I thought these little decorative perforations were a great pattern to accent the leather with. I think Bal made a good move by making these subtle and not over the top.
However, if I was going to finally get a Balenciaga City bag, would I buy a perforated piece? I thought about it and decided that even though I admire Bal's creativity, I think I would still stick with the traditional bags. I have a feeling that these might be a little on the trendy side, and that is why I wouldn't actually purchase one. And besides, you can't go wrong with a classic Balenciaga! Anyways, as far as pricing goes, I'm not exactly sure what these are marked at. Though I'm sure they're higher then the traditional Bal bags.
So, are the new perforated Balenciaga bags a hit or miss with you?

I’m sorry, but I don’t like this at all. The perforated detail ruins the look. I’m going to pass.

Re: Perforated Balenciaga Bags
I think the little perforations on the edges are cute. They make it look lacy. What I don't like is the hardware being the color of the bag. I would want contrasting hardware. Sorry.
