Badgley MischkaGrace 3 Piece Polycarbonate-ABS Expandable Retro Luggage Set (Black)

Good value. We had shopped for them at Macy’s due to having a gift card but it was better priced on Amazon, faster shipping on Amazon plus we got the 5% back for having an Amazon card.At time of writing this is the most economical way to buy this item.Item itself seems great too. I only have used the carry on size one for one plane trip so I can’t comment a ton on durability like someone that travels every week for work: The other luggage sizes in the set look cool. Great color and vintage feel. Wife liked it for her birthday. Only bad thing is my wife now wants me to find money to take her to Paris so she can use the luggage to its fullest capabilities. :-)

This was a graduation present and the recipient love it.

This was a gift to a friend and its gorgeous! Great value, asthetically pleasing. So far quality is good.

We took a couple of these to Hawaii and back and they held up fine, no issues. They roll very smoothly, zippers work well, and the interior straps and pockets all worked as expected. The shells seem durable, although they are prone to scuffing. They look very high-end, as long as you don't look too closely -- what at first glance appears to be leather appointments are really mostly rubber and plastic, and the zippers aren't the highest quality I've seen on luggage. In particular I didn't like the zipper pulls, they are very lightweight metal, and these always seem to be the first thing to break if they aren't the good quality metal pulls. But overall I'd say this is typical quality for a set like this but I think they are a notch above in the style department.

Updated 11/30/24 review - we took the largest piece of this set with us to Paris. How I wish we had taken the smallest carry on as well. I filled it to the maximum. I was at 23.7 kg at weigh in. Even a light bag is heavy with all that stuff. I wish I had left many of the items home, but the bag held them all and was easy to wheel around even on cobblestone streets. It does have a few scratches but nothing really visible and no dents which is what I was most concerned about. Its hard sides are flexible and I didn't know if that meant they might bend and dent but they did not. I really appreciated the little extra space that the expandable zipper provided but it isn't much. I still like the look of this luggage. It is simple with a little style and fun. It was nearly perfect and would have been perfect if I had taken the smaller bag too. We ended up buying a much more expensive bag out of need while we were in Paris which is a waste since I had a matching piece sitting at home.Original review -I have no idea yet how this Badgley Mischka Grace 3 Piece Polycarbonate-ABS Expandable Retro Luggage Set will wear, but I can tell you that the new set is way beyond my expectations of good looking. It is really lovely looking luggage that will definitely stand out at the hotel or as your luggage is coming off the airplane. There are lots of little style details down to some gold on the wheels.The set comes with three pieces which can be stored inside each other. The fabric on the interior is attractive and the trim looks great. The telescopic handles are all different lengths to match the bag size. Each bag is expandable. I've never had hard sided luggage so I may miss the outer pocket, but I'll get over it.The set should be good for every trip from my upcoming trip to Paris to an overnight. It is fancy looking but doesn't have extras like locks on the bags or chargers or shoe bags. That's fine with me. The hard side has give. I hope it won't dent but I won't know that until I travel. The 4 wheels on each bag are small, but roll smoothly and it is easy to change direction. I'm a happy camper.
