A couple of weeks ago, I asked you for help deciding between a grey or pink Givenchy Antigona. If you follow us on Instagram, you know I’ve made my decision: the winner is PINK!
Truth be told, after asking you and reading every single response, I was leaning towards grey. It’s so incredibly versatile, and I knew I would carry the grey bag not only for seasons to come, but for years to come. Plus, that specific grey looks to be just about as perfect as it gets. It was decided, and Vlad also gave me his grey nod of approval. Everything changed, though, when I saw a tweet from our friend Dina letting me know the pink version I loved was marked down on RueLaLa.
I opened RueLaLa as quickly as I could and saw there was one pink Antigona left, so I added it to my cart as quickly as my fingers allowed and clicked “purchase.” The pink baby was going to be mine, and at a very nice discount.
The retail price for the small Antigona is $2,280, but I got mine for $1,499.99, a substantial $780 off retail. All of a sudden, this purchase became my second best bag deal ever (after my Proenza Schouler Crocodile PS1, of course).
I wasn’t sure if I would feel like I got my second choice when the bag arrived in the mail, and to be frank, I was a bit worried that would happen. In reality, it was quite the opposite. The box arrived and I carefully pulled the bag out of the dustbag, and I was completely smitten. The color was a bit deeper, but still as pretty and delicate as I imagined.
I never thought I’d be the girl with the perfectly pink bag, but now I have it and I love it. The Antigona lured me in many seasons ago, and I’ve been drawn to it ever since. I’m so happy I got the pink, and even more thrilled I got it for such a great deal.
If you’re looking for a bag at a great price, definitely check out RueLaLa. Expect to see many more pictures and a full review of my pretty in pink Antigona soon.
