It's so weird they're just calling it the Bow Bag rather than the Obi Satchel since that's clearly what inspired the design. Plus, there are just so many bow bags now across designers including YSL's previous Bow Bag that I thought they'd want to create a little distinction with the name. It's still a cool design regardless, though.

^That one is the large size at 17" wide. I'm not sure what the dimensions are for the medium, but you can see that on the medium the handle looks proportionately larger and the bag is shorter so it has a little more of an east/west look.

It's available to order through Saks, so if you want to pick it up from YSL I would just call one of the boutiques and they should be able to send it to you.

New spring bags are FINALLY available in the online boutique portion of YSL.com (some just on preorder though).

So we finally get to see the dimensions and prices on some of these.

When I have time later in the week I'll begin adding them to the Reference Library.

this hobo is available in black and cream now at Nordstrom! It is amazingly soft, I love the zippers, although a the zippers add a little weight. It looks great worn! They were calling it the "Zippy Hobo"
The gathered Easy has also arrived! ($2395, yikes!)

Hi ladies, I got this email this morning from YSL.com with new spring bags and other must haves

hi gals,

can someone help authenticate this one for me? http://cgi.ebay.com/Auth-YSL-Yves-Sa...3A1%7C294%3A50

i've been reading so many positive and negative things about this particular seller, but people seem to sing her praises lately, esp re: balenciagas. i'm a little nervous still!

shimin_123 · Jun 14th, 2009, 03:49 AM

Hi I dont know what negative comments you have read regarding this seller ( because I have only heard good comments) but she is one of the seller on ebay who only sell authentic balenciaga bags plus many other brands. I have bought alot of bags from her and never had a problem. I bought a large YSL easy bag from her last year and it is authentic! But to ease your mind you should have it authenicated at the YSL authenication thread. Hope this will help you!

galangalangalan · Jun 14th, 2009, 04:24 AM

Phew, good to hear! Thanks for the speedy reply, you're so nice!
