This Saint Laurent Mini Sunset in black leather with silver-tone hardware brings sleek sophistication. In good condition, it’s perfect for cocktail evenings, weddings or stylish city nights, keeping cards and essentials neatly stowed. Whether dressing for a formal event or elevating weekend denim, it adds refined polish to any look.
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 Mini Sunset? A: Despite its compact size, it usually holds a large smartphone, a slim cardholder or uses the built‑in card slots, keys, lipstick, and small essentials like AirPods or a travel‑size hand sanitiser. Slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve may fit, but continental (long) wallets, small water bottles and bulkier pouches generally do not. Please refer to the Measurements shown or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Is the chain strap adjustable or removable? Can I wear it crossbody? A: The chain is not adjustable and is generally not designed to be removed. It can be worn doubled on the shoulder or extended as a single chain for shoulder or high crossbody wear. We list the strap drop(s) in the Measurements section—if anything is missing, just ask and we’ll confirm for you.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The Mini Sunset features a magnetic flap closure that provides good day‑to‑day security. For commuting or travel, we recommend keeping the bag upright and placing smaller valuables in an interior slip section or a small pouch for extra peace of mind. Please review our photos for the exact closure on this piece.
Q: What is the interior layout? A: Mini Sunset bags commonly include multiple compartments with integrated card slots and a slip section under the flap. Exact layouts can vary slightly by season—our listing photos show the precise configuration, and the description notes that this piece has multiple compartments and card slots.
Q: Will my iPhone Pro/Max fit? A: Most Pro/Max phones fit horizontally, though very bulky cases can make the fit snug. Compare your phone’s dimensions with the Measurements provided, or ask us to check the fit against this specific bag before purchase.
Q: What materials and hardware does this piece have? A: This listing specifies black leather with a black leather lining and silver‑tone hardware, plus a chain‑link shoulder strap with a leather pad. It is stamped Made in Italy. Our photos and description show the exact finish and details of this item.
Q: How should I care for the leather and hardware? A: Keep leather away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim. Wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth; if needed, use a high‑quality neutral leather conditioner very sparingly and test first on a discreet area. Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid overfilling to preserve the flap. To minimise chain imprints, place a soft cloth between the chain and leather during storage. Hardware can develop light hairline scratches with normal use—avoid contact with abrasive surfaces.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located, and how is dating handled? A: Authentic Saint Laurent bags feature a “SAINT LAURENT PARIS” heat stamp inside and a country‑of‑origin stamp (commonly Italy). A serial code is typically located on a small leather tag inside the main compartment or an interior pocket. Placement and format can vary by era—we’re happy to share close‑up photos and help you interpret the code for this exact piece.
Q: Is the Mini Sunset still produced? A: The Sunset line is part of Saint Laurent’s ongoing collection, though details (lining, hardware finish and minor layout tweaks) can vary by season. The pre‑loved market is ideal for locating specific colours and configurations like this Mini size.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: Any included items are listed under “Accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to contact us to confirm. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, serial code and overall construction.
