Kipling bags best sellers 2012






Kipling Christmas best sellers 2012


Well 2012 is over and what a year! For us here at rtherapy we were flat out right up until the New Years Eve parties got underway.

Now the dust has settled and the hangovers cleared we have had time to look back over at what was hot in 2012...

Best selling Kipling handbag 2012


Well as you would expect The Kipling Fairfax, Defea and New Raisin were all bestsellers during 2012. According to our Kipling sources the Fairfax is the best selling Kipling bag of all time... though what surprised us in 2012 is how sort after the Kipling Cammie was.  This  versatile shoulder bag has loads of room with 3 main compartments and really is a great alternative to the Fairfax or Defea as your go to Kipling bag
 


Best selling Kipling purses and Wallets

Unlike the handbags there were no real surprises here. The usual suspects filled the order books with the New Money being the most popular purse, while for those of you wanting something slightly larger the Kipling Brownie proved a popular option.


 

Kipling luggage

It seemed a fair few customers were heading off on their holidays this year and cabin sized luggage was all the rage. The Kipling Yubin50 was streets ahead of the competition and with a volume of 25L and only weighing 2.2kg it certainly offered everything you need in a compact piece carry on wheeled luggage.
 



So it just leaves us to wish everyone a very happy and healthy 2013

Holiday Pre-Spring 2012/13




The New Seasons Kipling Range!!

Available from 26th October 2012 to buy, will be the new Kipling Holiday Pre-Spring 2012/13 collection.  Again as seen in previous seasonal collections, we lose some favourite styles and one season wonders.  But gain a few new styles or slight alterations to current styles.



From now on, instead of having only two seasonal collections with two phases, you'll be getting four seasonal collections!!  Therefore, more styles & colours ..... MORE KIPLING!!!!!!

The new basic seasonal colours are:

WARM GREY
LIGHT BROWN
CUMIN
KETCHUP
MITCHELL BLUE
GENTLE GREY
POP GREEN
BLACK HEATHER
LACQUER BRONZE
LINE PRINT

The colour RED that made a re-appearance in the FALL12 collection gets the chop yet again  (sorry red fans, but you'll be getting the ketchup instead).

One style that gets tweaked is the ELISE


The two front pockets being replaced by just the one large flap over pocket.

We already have the Creativity S & L.  Now joined by the Creativity XL & X.



We have a few casualties too in this collection.  Gone are the JARITA, CAMMIE, JOETSU S, DAMMIA, MORNA, TEDROS, CARD and one major exclusion!!!!!

THE VINTAGE RANGE!!!!!!

So if you like the Affie, New Ebb etc and your mohawk monkey, you best get them now.

A slight twist to the basic range is the BASIC ELEVATED range



Some of the styles included in this very small range are the DEFEA, DELPHIN, ALVAR, GRACY, NEW ELISE & TEAGAN S.

The Kipling light range unfortunately has only lasted a season but the Basic small essentials makes one more collection.  The Hiphurray bags return to their glorious fine Kipling logo, instead of the images of chips etc that featured in the fall12 collection celebrating Antwerp.  A good move I say!!  These will be available in the basic seasonal colours.

As it will be Christmas soon, Kipling have some cool seasonal monkeys!  Reindeer monkey, Ice Queen monkey, Skating monkey or my favourite .. the Tree monkey or 'Grinch monkey' as I'd like to say.


I hope you all enjoy this new season range when it appears on www.rtherapyclothing.co.uk 

Then in a few months I'll write a blog about my favourite collection to date ... SPRING 2013!

Discontinued Kipling styles!




Some of our favourite Kipling bags have faced the axe!!

As from the Fall 2012 Kipling range, you won't be getting your hands on the following bags in the new colours:

Sadly the first to go and always a favourite is the NEW CANDY!!  Shocked?! 

Next is the CASKA

Styles that lasted just a few seasons are the: HUBEI & RETH S.

These next styles I'm guessing weren't a crowd favourite as they only lasted one season:

BENATA, CIARAN, ERASTO S, ADARA M & ISAURA

Gone is the mini range.  Styles included are the PUCK, MALAITA & TEDDY.

If you like the G*RILLA GIRLZ range then I suggest you buy them quickly as the whole range has been canned!! No more HARAJUKU & INZAI I'm afraid.

The Kipling 2Go range is next.  However this will be replaced with the Kipling Light range.  These bags will be light, durable, functional & versatile.

There are a few casualties in the Vintage range.  Styles included are the EBB S, GOHJO & AHURU.  Unfortunately the popular DEFEA & FAIRFAX only lasted one season in the vintage range!





Oh, and the PERMANENT BLACK?  It's not permanent!!

It's sad to see some of these favourites go, but rest assured Kipling have new designs coming to you soon!!

So there you have some hot Kipling news.  So remember if you like some of the styles to be discontinued, you best get them quick before it's too late.
