Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside the Balenciaga Hourglass XS Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 19 x 13 x 8 cm, this compact structured bag is best for daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder or compact wallet, keys, lipstick, and small extras like earbuds. It is not designed for bulkier items.
Q: Does the Hourglass XS fit a large phone? A: Yes, the XS size generally fits a large smartphone. If you use a very bulky case, we recommend comparing your phone to the measurements listed on this page for the best idea of fit.
Q: How can this bag be carried? A: This piece features a single top handle as well as a detachable shoulder strap, so it can be carried by hand or worn with the strap depending on your preferred styling and fit.
Q: What are the main features of this specific bag? A: This item is crafted in silver glitter leather with silver-tone hardware, a grey leather lining, and a magnetic flap closure. It has the sculptural Hourglass silhouette that makes the style so recognisable.
Q: Does the bag close securely? A: Yes, it has a magnetic flap closure, which keeps everyday essentials neatly covered while still being easy to open and close.

For best long-term care, store it in its dust bag when not in use and use a specialist cleaner for anything beyond light surface care.
