EntertainmentFashion fans were frenzied Thursday after the much anticipated restock of Mansur Gavriel bags was delayed on their website.
For weeks, the website's homepage has looked like this:
MansurGavriel.com
The line, which just debuted last June, has been called "an overnight sensation" and "the first post-recession it-bag" for "women who don't want to commit to the cost of a Celine tote."
While the bags have been nearly impossible to get for months, Thursday's restock promised more merchandise and new spring colors.
Early Thursday morning, the brand let fans know via social media that the bags would be available "in the afternoon EST," leaving eager customers around the globe refreshing their browsers every few moments since around noon EST.
But as the afternoon rolled on, there was still no update, and people started to panic.
Many expressed their frustration via Twitter:
