SAINT LAURENT CABAS CHYC TOTE BAG ANIMAL PRINT HORSEHAIR/CALFSKIN BLACK GHW
The Cabas sits within the maison's range as one of the house's most enduring silhouettes, here rendered in calfskin and finished with gold-tone hardware.
A flat-bottomed tote silhouette with twin handles gives the bag its quietly utilitarian quality, balanced by the considered way the panels meet at the seam. Proportions are considered: a piece sized for daily carry but built with the precision the house reserves for its archive pieces. The black palette gives the silhouette a quiet, considered register.
The calfskin is selected for the way it holds line — the surface keeps its character through wear, and the panels meet with the precision the house brings to its leather goods.
The maison's codes are present without ever crowding the design — a closure that nods to the YSL Cassandre signature, gold-tone hardware finished with restraint, and the precise hand-finish associated with the maison's Paris studio.
A quietly authoritative piece — proportion, craft, and finish balanced with the restraint the maison is known for.
