Sac de Jour
By Arielle · Catalogued July 2026
The Sac de Jour is Saint Laurent's structured top-handle tote, introduced in 2013 under Hedi Slimane. It is a crisply architectural bag with two rolled top handles, a removable shoulder strap, winged sides that fold in, and the metal YSL Cassandre logo on the front. Made in smooth or grained calfskin across several sizes, it is the house's answer to the ladylike structured tote and one of its modern classics.
