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 this crossbody bag? A: With approximate measurements of 23 × 16 × 7 cm, it comfortably carries a large smartphone, a compact wallet, keys, sunglasses in a slim sleeve, and a few small cosmetics. It is not designed for tablets or water bottles. For exact capacity, please refer to the Measurements on this page.
Q: Is the strap suitable for crossbody wear and can it be adjusted? A: Yes. The single strap has an approximate drop of 51 cm and is adjustable, so you can fine-tune where it sits on your frame. Typical crossbody drops range a bit longer, so this style will sit around high-hip on most people; compare with a favourite bag for the best match.
Q: How secure is the closure and what compartments are inside? A: The bag features a flap top with a tab-style closure for quick yet secure access. Inside, there is a black logo-jacquard lining with one zipped pocket to keep smaller items safe.
Q: How should I care for the white woven canvas with leather trim? A: Gently brush off dust after use. For small marks on canvas, dab with a soft white cloth lightly moistened with mild soap and water, then air-dry away from heat. Keep the leather trim dry and use leather-specific care only. Avoid harsh chemicals, over-wetting, and prolonged sun exposure. Store the bag loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to maintain shape.
Q: How do I reduce the risk of colour transfer on the light canvas? A: Avoid prolonged rubbing against dark denim or freshly dyed garments, especially in damp conditions. Let wet clothing fully dry before wear, and wipe the bag gently after use. If the bag becomes damp, blot and allow it to air-dry naturally—do not use heat tools.
Q: Is the bag waterproof? A: No. Canvas and leather are not fully water-resistant. If exposed to rain, blot moisture gently with a light, lint-free cloth and allow to dry naturally. We do not recommend untested spray protectants, as some products can darken or mark materials.
Q: Where is the serial number and can it tell the production year? A: On Saint Laurent bags, the serial is typically found on or behind a small interior leather tag (often near the pocket). Number formats have varied by era; some newer formats include a month/year element, while many vintage styles use different numeric layouts. Because formats changed over time, dating a bag from the code alone isn’t always reliable.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every piece is vetted by our in-house experts using a multi-point process that examines materials, stitching, stamps, fonts, hardware, interior labels and serial conventions. We never rely on a single indicator and stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
Q: Why does the brand sometimes read Saint Laurent while older pieces say Yves Saint Laurent? A: In 2012 the house rebranded its ready-to-wear to Saint Laurent; earlier items may bear Yves Saint Laurent markings. Both are authentic to their respective eras, and the model name here is Yves—referring to the style, not a post-sale alteration.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. This piece currently comes with a box. If an item is not listed there, it is not included.
