As they say, the devil is in the details. Well, in the world of high-end handbags, sometimes that’s where you can find the design as well. And it’s the details that bring me back to the Gucci Crest Boule Fabric Tote over and over again. We’ve all seen plenty of ho-hum (and some slightly more than ho-hum) canvas totes from this brand over the years; besides their signature horsebit details, it’s probably one of the things for which they’re best known. But none has been so precise and sleek as this beauty right here.
It’s possible that the exclusion of the Gucci signature from this tote is what makes it look so clean and sophisticated, but I think it’s more than that. The thick leather trim and handles give the bag a heft and structure that few canvas totes have, and it makes it look a lot more purposeful and expensive-looking than other bags of this variety. The one thing I can’t get behind, though, is the price – even one of the nicest canvases totes I’ve ever seen still isn’t worth almost two grand. For that kind of dosh, I’m going to need leather. Buy through Neiman Marcus for $1990.
Awesome… would go very well with black
Love the vintage diamond pattern and the trimmings are grown-up. I’ve just seen this bag IRL – breathtaking!
I really like the canvas as I’ve never been a fan of the GG fabric. Love the leather and shape but the price is CRAZY!
Purses are like your gorgeous porche, ferrari.. jaguar that instead of leaving parked at the parking lot you carry with you for everyone to notice!!!
EW!
What a great, refined Gucci tote. Would never pay this price for fabric, though. Just can’t do it. Sorry, Gucci.
I really don’t like it, can they stop putting the hysteria decoration on their bags? It’s awful! If I spent that kind of money, I would buy the New Jackie from Gucci, much better and classy
Love it great bag. <3
Especially the details
so pretty but the price makes me hysteria…. $1900 for canvas tote???? no way… with or without financial crisis….
Love it!
Nope! Not my cup of tea. It’s plain ugly.
I really like this bag. It has everything I like about signature bags, lightweight, contrast leather trim, hardware but without the obnoxious logo all over it. I also love the shape and the convertible option. Does it zip on top like a hidden zipper ? If I had a job outside of the house I would buy it as a work bag especially since I wear a lot of black.
The detail lies in the crests. It is 24k Gold plated crest with lens. Making of one such crest takes 2 days. The full leather for this bag will cost around 3K. It is very expensive and well structured but lacks friendliness.
Ok, I like this. Perfect size and everything…..

It’s a beauty. If I’m going to pay $2K for a bag, I want all leather with lots of nice hardware. I guess I’ll wait.
