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: What typically fits inside the Saint Laurent Classic Kate Tassel Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 24 x 16.5 x 4 cm, this slim medium Kate style is best for essentials such as a large phone, card holder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick, and a few small items. It is not ideal for bulkier pieces such as a tablet, water bottle, or large wallet.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: It has a chain shoulder strap with an approximate strap measurement of 48 cm. For most people it works best as a shoulder bag, and on many frames it may sit too short to feel comfortable as a true crossbody style.
Q: Does the bag close securely? A: Yes. It has a magnetic flap closure, which keeps essentials neatly in place while still being easy to open and close.
Q: Is the tassel removable? A: No. On Kate Tassel styles, the chain tassel is part of the design and is not usually intended to be removed.
Q: What are the main details of this bag? A: This piece features black leather, gold-tone hardware, the YSL logo with tassel, a chain shoulder strap, black suede lining, one internal pocket, and Italian craftsmanship.
Q: What condition is this particular item in? A: It is in very good pre-owned condition. The exterior shows light traces of use with some marks and scratches, the interior has minor marks, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches.
Q: Does this item come with any product information? A: No additional product information is included with this item.
Q: Is the Kate Tassel better for evenings or everyday use? A: The Kate Tassel is especially popular for evening wear and occasions, but the medium size can also work well for light daytime use if you only carry the essentials. Its structured, slim profile makes it easy to dress up.
Q: How should I care for a vintage leather Kate bag? A: Wipe the leather gently with a soft, dry cloth, avoid overfilling, and keep it away from prolonged moisture, heat, and direct sunlight. When not in use, store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help maintain its shape, and take extra care with the suede lining inside.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is carefully checked by in-house experts using a multi-point authentication process that reviews materials, construction, hardware, branding, and other style-specific details.
