Delivery & Returns
Q: What are the key details of this Saint Laurent Belle de Jour clutch? A: This is the Large Belle de Jour in black leather with the stitched YSL logo, tonal lining, one internal pocket and a magnetic flap closure. It is a vintage piece made in Italy.
Q: What typically fits inside the Large size? A: At approximately 28 × 17 × 3 cm, it is best suited to essentials such as a phone, slim wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, a passport and a few small cosmetics. Because the profile is slim, bulky pouches or thick long wallets may make the flap harder to close neatly.
Q: Will it fit a larger phone? A: Yes, most larger smartphones should fit comfortably in this size. If you use a very thick case, space may feel a little tighter, so a slim case is best if you also want to carry other essentials.
Q: Does it come with a strap? A: No. The Belle de Jour is designed as a handheld or under-arm clutch, and this item does not have a shoulder strap or strap loops.
Q: Is the magnetic flap secure? A: Yes, the concealed magnetic flap is designed to stay closed during normal wear. As with most slim clutches, it performs best when the bag is not overfilled.
Q: Is this clutch better for evening or daytime use? A: It works well for both. Its sleek envelope shape makes it a natural choice for dinners, weddings and events, while the larger format also suits polished daytime use when you only need the essentials.
Q: What condition is this vintage piece in? A: It is listed in very good condition with light traces of use externally and internally. The hardware is shiny with light surface scratches, which is typical for a well-kept vintage item.
Q: What is included with the bag? A: This item is listed with no additional included items. Everything that comes with it is noted in the product information section.
Q: How should I care for this leather clutch? A: Store it flat or lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, keep it away from prolonged heat and moisture, and wipe the leather gently with a soft dry cloth after use. Avoid overfilling it to help preserve the slim silhouette and flap shape.
