Gucci Hysteria Bag

Gucci Hysteria Bag

4.23.2008 | by Megs | under: Gucci Handbags

Gucci Hysteria Bag I fell head over heels in love with the ultimately expensive Gucci Crocodile Hysteria Bag. The price is not practical for me at all, but the color, the feel, the shape, was beautiful. I kept staring at it and studying it and I truly think the SA thought he made a huge sale that day. Unfortunately I was just an oogler, not a real buyer. And last week I went to Gucci Bal Harbor and fell in love again, but this time that bag is more affordable, relatively speaking. The Gucci Hysteria Bag is designed with yellow/white patchwork on the front of the bag with black leather on the back. The leather is ultimately sumptuous. I mean super soft, the kind that just melts as you touch it. I kept grabbing the bag thinking it was from Bottega Veneta, not Gucci. This bag has me back on Gucci’s side, in love with a bag that is absolutely fierce. The body is very slouchy, actually allowing the bag to fold over if you carry it with the messenger strap. The Hysteria bags feature Gucci Crest detail. There was still one more of these available at Gucci Bal Harbor but you can also find it online via Bergdorf Goodman for $3150 or plain patent via Saks for $1790.

The solid black patent was alright. The multi color is awful.

I love the mulitcolor. It takes a plain bag and makes it pop!. Unfortunately, I don’t have the funds to buy this one.

It is as smashing as it is out of my financial grasp.

I saw this bag in the Vegas Gucci store. I agree with Megs. It is TDF in person. Would totally make an outfit. gorgeous.

I love it, Megs. This line really needs to be seen in person - photos don’t do it justice. I ran into this line by chance at Saks and fell in love instantly. It is the softest patent leather ever and just looks amazing. Great post!

I don’t know about this purse. While I am a woman who loves herself a Gucci purse, this one just doesn’t do it for me. I think it’s the flower design thingy that turns me off. I’m the type of gal that prefers solid colors even in my collectors purses. Much more attractive than this one. I don’t think this bag is worth the asking price.

well well sometimes i do love the classic girl in her beige jimmy choos saba or her epi louis vuitton speedy in noir but you have to break out of the mold once in a while and be brave and just trust your gut instinct. Yes. i may be of the same guard that champions the prada james jean cervo lux purse, yes but i also love my chanel 2.55 purse as well. Frida Gianini has been churning out fantstic designs, some may be off according to my personal barometer but not the hysteria. My mom and sister herself is a fan of the roomy hobo. they possess permutations from fendi and furla (dont know whether you have this brand in the USA) but you should give the more design conscious hysteria a chance. MY BET IS YOIU WILL LOVE IT :smile:
