Saint Laurent Cassandra Chain Envelope Flap Bag

We have a huge problem with Saint Laurent. Our problem with Saint Laurent is that we cannot choose. Almost every single bag that they create looks amazingly stunning. We want to take them all home.

The latest Saint Laurent Cassandra Chain Bag reminds us of the newest Sulpice Bag. Both bags have the double V shape appearance. Both bags are introduced for the Fall Winter 2018 Collection.

And by the way, the Cassandra Bag is not new style. This bag has already existed for a while, but the look has been modified. See the Classic Cassandra Bag here.

The Design

A lot have changed comparing the Cassandra Chain Bag with the Classic Cassandra Bag. So we will not go into the comparison. Instead we will just treat this bag as a new obsession.

The Cassandra Chain Bag features an envelope shaped flap, but the edge of the flap is highlighted with a stitched V line. The overall appearance is timeless and classic, especially due to the iconic YSL logo crafted just below the flap.

The bag is made in calf leather, which is strong and durable. The double curb chain adds to the feminine touch. The sides are refined with beautiful studs for the final touch.

If you’re wondering what kind of hardware Saint Laurent uses, it’s bronze metal hardware. And the YSL logo is actually a working closure – it’s a clip fastener.

The Interior

The inside of the Cassandra Chain Bag is structured with 1 flat pocket, 1 slit pocket, 1 main compartment and 1 zippered pocket. It has everything you need to use as an everyday bag.
