The official CELINE thread

[kieran84]

I've heard excellent reviews on Parade. Hedi wears it himself with black tie and reptile I believe.

 

[SirGrotius]

I picked up a couple shirts through the online store, and was very impressed with the quality and packaging (as always). Made in Italy, very fine, elegant materials, especially the beige shirt in silk. Absolutely love the beige, it's the classic fit, which is tailored but roomy with a noticeable collar (think opposite of those skinny collars Hedi and KVA were doing at DH).

That said, I'd need to get the sleeves shortened about an inch and the body about two.

Do you think it's worth holding onto and waiting until the quarantine to have it adjusted in the boutiques, or just ship back? I don't trust my local tailors, but I'm concerned about going back to a boutique with an internet purchase, even via Celine.com, to have something altered post wear. Does anyone have experience with bringing something back to a shop for adjustments? There was only one 37 left, and earlier it had been sold out for about a month. I think it stands out because I do not see this color that often; it's ugly but works. ha.

The skinny shirt, sadly, is too skinny for me. The size is right in terms of the collar, but the arms are unforgiving if you have even a modicum of biceps and my pectorals are a little too defined so pull on the shirt. It'd be a lost cause even after one laundering. It's skinnier than SL or DH based on the shirting I have, which covers dressy to casual.

I️ was thinking about picking up some jeans and maybe a bottle of Nightclubbing finally. How fast was the shipping to you?

 

[SirGrotius]

Super fast. I'm in PA, maybe two days. I had made a couple parfume orders before and they arrived next day!
BTW - big fan of nightclubbing.

Wow! That is fast. I’m in NYC so I’m guess it will be quick too.

I haven't had experience with Celine and internet purchases, but with my Saint Laurent purchases I made a few years back from online, I was able to bring it in and they took care of it, no questions asked. I had my e-receipt should there be any issues, but it was fine. Even had a jacket I purchased at Barney's altered for free at one point as well.

To be honest, I think given the current situation, they will do what they can to keep customers happy and coming back.

If your in PA I would recommend Armens Custom Tailors. I would first ask Celine if they would do free tailoring once the store reopens since most boutiques offer free tailoring on full retail purchases though.

Do boots ever come in plain white unbranded boxes? I bought a pair of “new and in box” Jacnos from a Celine FB group and the plain white box is kind of throwing me off.

 

[SirGrotius]

Hmm - no black Celine on the box? That's unusual. I had the Jacno lows in large white box with branding, as with all their other items. In fact, I've found the packaging to be something especially exceptional and fastidious for the house!

Same, I would imagine Celine will accomodate you just like that.

 

[RicardoRSilva]

Hello, I'm new here! Did any of you have the medium biker backpack or seen it in store?

I bought a pair of the macadamia python jacnos in store and the box does have a big Celine Paris logo on the top. However, there are no stickers or labels indicating the size/model/production codes anywhere on the box.

 

[Laissez-faire]

Same for me with six shoe boxes.
Only seen labeled boxes so far.
Owen, is that you?

 

[Hundley]

Well.. I guess my follow up question is, are there any high quality reps on the market? I’m not as worried about the box, the plain box just kind of put my “these are fakes” spidey sense up.
