This Saint Laurent Belle de Jour clutch in black leather features the house’s embossed YSL logo, a black textile-lined interior with one pocket, and a magnetic flap closure.

Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: Is this the Large Belle de Jour size? A: Yes. This listing is for the Large Belle de Jour, measuring approximately 28 x 17 x 2 cm. It has a slim, elongated shape that tucks neatly under the arm while offering a little more room than smaller clutch styles.
Q: What are the key features of this clutch? A: This piece is crafted in black leather with an embossed YSL logo, black textile lining, one internal pocket, and a magnetic flap closure. The clean envelope silhouette is one of the Belle de Jour's signature details.
Q: What typically fits inside? A: The Large size is ideal for essentials such as a smartphone, keys, a cardholder or slim wallet, lipstick, and a few small beauty items. It can also hold flatter items such as travel documents, but it is best packed lightly so the clutch keeps its sleek shape.
Q: Is it mainly for evenings, or can it be used during the day as well? A: It works well for both. The Belle de Jour is a classic evening clutch, but the larger format and understated black leather also make it suitable for lunches, events, dinners, and polished daytime wear.
Q: Does this clutch have a strap or wristlet? A: No. This piece is designed as a classic handheld clutch, and this listing does not indicate any detachable strap or wristlet.
Q: What is the inside like? A: The interior is lined in black textile and includes one internal pocket for smaller essentials. The magnetic flap makes it easy to open and close while keeping the design streamlined.
Q: Where was this piece made? A: This item carries a made in Italy origin label.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: It is listed in very good pre-owned condition. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, while the hardware is shiny with light scratches consistent with careful previous wear.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This piece is listed with no additional inclusions. Everything that comes with it is reflected in the product information, so if a dust bag, box, or card is not mentioned there, it is not included.
Q: How is authenticity handled for this piece? A: A Retro Tale states that its items are verified by its experts. As with all pre-owned luxury pieces, details such as materials, construction, logo work, lining, and overall finish are part of the authentication process.
