Botkier Bianca
Permalink Closed

I know a couple of you have the Bianca. I would like to get it in bone. I have never had a white bag, or that nice of a bag for that matter. I just want to be sure I'm getting my moneys worth.

How is the leather quality? Does it scratch or get damaged easily? For the white specifically is it hard to keep clean? Are the straps comfortable on your shoulder? Do all the zippers work smoothly?

I know I have a lot of questions but it would really help me out if anyone could get me more information. I havent found the bag in store, so I would be ordering online.

As a side note, have any of you ordered from Neiman Marcus? Thats the only place I've found that has the bone Bianca. (They're also doing free shipping)

Thank you so much!! I really hope I get the bag soon! biggrin

I just got the Botkier Bianca in bone last month for my birthday!  I absolutely love it.  I'll try to give you as much info as I can, but I haven't carried the bag yet.  The leather is awesome quality - super soft, buttery, leather.  The zippers all work very smoothly from what I can tell.

The leather is very smooth and soft, so I do worry a little about keeping it clean, but I just plan to be super careful w/it, and probably not carry it every single day.

I got mine from Active Endeavors w/a 25% off code, but if you're ordering from Neiman's, I believe they carry it in store (I believe zeitgeist check it out there for me!). 

If I can help answer any other questions, or you want to see IRL pics,  let me know.  I think it's a gorgeous bag, well worth the $$.

Thanks Shopchicago! I have seen your pictures on SD and it looks great. Ive tried the bag on in black or brown, but I didnt really examine it. Thanks for letting me know that NM might have it in store. The closest one is about an hour away, so I'll call first. But if they have it, that beats having to wait a week to get it!

For any of the girls that have used the Bianca, regardless of color, does the leather get scratched or damaged easily? Thanks

i got my denim bianca last fall for 30% off at karizma, and i lurve mine. the leather's beautiful, the straps are a good length, and the zippers don't give me any grief. the leather can get scratched, though, as i learned when i was stupidly flinging around my keys and scratched the back (sob). i've been a little more careful (i.e. use common sense), and haven't had any problems since.

Thanks Squishy! Well I'm pretty certain that I'm getting the bag. I'm very picky hwen it comes to bags and I can never find one that I truly love. This is this first one I've found in about a year that I think suits all my needs!

And can you believe that this is going to be my first leather bag?! Gasp! ashamed I've only had Coach canvas...

Well I was planning on getting the bone color, but was a little concerned about getting it dirty. I was at Nordstrom yesterday and they just got the Bianca in a beautiful cognac color, with a slight pearl sheen to it. Hard to describe but it was beautiful! I think I'm going back today to get it!
Botkier Bianca Do you think it will go well with darker browns and possibly black?
