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 Yves St. Tropez Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 30 x 22 x 1 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, card holder or slim wallet, keys, sunglasses and a few small cosmetic items. Because it has a very slim depth, it is not ideal for bulkier items or a laptop.
Q: Is this bag designed to be worn on the shoulder? A: Yes. This style features a single flat shoulder strap with an approximate strap drop of 27 cm, which makes it comfortable to carry on the shoulder. It is not designed as a crossbody bag.
Q: What are the main features of this bag? A: This piece is crafted in beige ruffled leather with gold-tone hardware. Inside, it has a brown suede lining and one internal pocket. The ruffled finish gives it a distinctive soft, sculptural look that stands out from more minimal Saint Laurent styles.
Q: Is this a vintage Saint Laurent bag? A: Yes. This is a vintage Saint Laurent style, and the St. Tropez line is commonly associated with the brand’s early-2000s era. Its ruffled leather design is especially recognisable from that period.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin listed for this item is France.
Q: Is the St. Tropez bag suitable for everyday use? A: It can work well for regular use if you travel fairly light and prefer a slim shoulder bag. However, because of the layered ruffled leather, many buyers prefer to use it as a day-to-evening piece rather than for heavier daily wear, especially if they want to preserve the shape of the ruffles over time.
Q: How should I care for and store this bag? A: Store it lightly stuffed so the body keeps its shape, and keep it in a breathable dust bag away from direct sunlight, heat and humidity. The ruffled leather should not be compressed for long periods, as the edges can develop extra curling or creasing if stored poorly. A soft dry cloth is best for light surface cleaning.
Q: What condition is this item in? A: The overall condition is listed as good. The exterior shows light traces of use with smaller stains and discolouration, the interior is in good condition with light wear, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: Does this item come with any additional product information or a listed serial number? A: No additional product information is included with this item, and no serial number is listed in the current product details. As with many vintage bags, markings and codes can vary, so buyers often rely on the full product information, construction details and photos when reviewing a piece.
