Q: What typically fits inside this Gucci Chain Leather Bag?
A: With dimensions of approximately 24 x 16 x 5 cm, this is a compact shoulder bag best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, card holder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick, and a few small personal items. It is not designed for bulkier items such as a tablet or large purse.

Q: Can this bag be worn on the shoulder or crossbody?
A: This style is best carried on the shoulder. The strap drop is approximately 15 cm, so it sits quite close to the body and is generally too short for comfortable crossbody wear.
