Completely agree, I despise that finish, it makes the bag look cheap and I would not touch it with a ten-foot pole. Same goes for the glazed-distressed leathers (current miu miu bow bags and balenciaga, sorry to fans of both), it just makes the leather look so tacky and “chapped”… like it needs a good dose of conditioner.

I adore MM but totally agree – it’s a crime to treat gorgeous leather in this way. There are other designers who also do it – as soon as I see that finish on a bag, I totally ignore it.

This treatment gives the leather the look of vinyl. Why go leather at all?! What a waste.

I love how the leather distressed. I have one in Mastress and love carring around. It is so chic~~~

This bag just looks so blah. I’m sure it looks and feels slightly better in person, but really NOT GOOD ENOUGH to escape looking like one of the many in the rows of knockoffs at Forever 21.

You are absolutely right. I bought that bag last year in summer in the colour rose. After a few weeks it looked like an old damaged bag. My friends asked me what has happened to the leather. I was so disappointed and angry about that fact. Normally Miu Miu has such great adorable bags. But this one was trash actually.

And in such an unappealing color, too. It reminds me of HH’s Crinkle Patent. I know there are those on tpf who ADORE that… I’m just not one of them. (Sorry.)
