Hi, I hope this message finds everyone well!
Quick question: does anyone know what the actual color is for this bag (please refer to photo below). Geranium? PS 1+ I believe ?


I purchased it for $450 from an eBay seller in Japan. It will be arriving in the mail soon.

Hi! Congrats on your purchase. Yes, it's a PS1+ and this color certainly looks like Geranium from the Spring Summer 2017 collection. Really pretty shade of reddish pink! Or pinkish red

@IntheOcean Thank you so much for the super-quick reply!!

I did not have qualms about the authenticity but I was curious about the chameleon like color (not exactly a red-blue, nor red-orange, nor a true red)
It was difficult for the seller to describe the exact color except to term it as ‘a red’.

I haven't seen it in person. But there wasn't any color similar enough to get them confused, as far as I know. This is true only for the PS1+ bag, mind you; the regular PS1 has had much more color options throughout the years. The closest I can think of is Cardinal, but it's definitely too red and vibrant. I hope you'll like it! Could you post some pictures when it arrives, if that's OK?

Will do!

I actually have two preloved PS1+ bags in ‘red’ tones (‘Brick’ with the special version shoulder strap and the ‘Geranium’) arriving in the mail this week!

Will take comparison pics of both red shades but will only keep one of the 2 bags
(I am planning to gift a bag to my college aged niece )

As promised , both Medium PS1+ Brick (on the left, with special edition hang tag) and Geranium (on the right). I took the photo without flash:

Two shades of ‘red’, the Geranium is a beautiful pink-red (or red-pink 😂)
The Geranium looked virtually brand-new, it came with all the sales tags (confirming it is indeed ‘Geranium’ color and even the clasp still had a plastic cover over it!


Oh I do both bags but I will only keep one, and gift the other to my niece! PS 1 and 1+ are wonderfully discreet classic bags. Thanks for reading, hope this helps!

Thank you for the pictures, they're beautiful bags. And I especially like the different color tag and strap on your other PS1+. Glad to hear the Geranium one was in like-new condition. Your niece will sure love it!

Hi. I bougt a white ”snakeskin” PS1 Tiny on Vestiare. I have already PS1 Tiny in black, green suede and raspberry ”snakeskin”. When I got the white bag it looked off to me and different in the construction to my other PS1 Tiny. It also had a small white leather tag with a number on inside (on the side) of the bag. I took pictures and compared it with my raspberty and then I sent it back to Vestiare for a second authentication. I was 100% sure it was fake. But now the authenticator at Vestiare says it is not fake. Can someone please help me. I belive this whits PS1 Tiny is fake. The raspberry bag is my older PS1 Tiny. The seller said the white one is from 2023.

Hi. From these photos, all I can say is that I don't see anything that would suggest the bag in question is fake. So it's most likely authentic.

The raspberry Tiny is an older model, the white one is the new, updated version. Hence the difference in details. I'm afraid you were a bit too hasty. If VC sends the bag back to you, post proper photos and Ellie and I will take a look.

Thank you. But what about the small leather tag inside the side of the bag (not the large leather tag) Is this something new? I never saw a PS1 with a serialnumber tag inside before

That's fine. Actually, PS bags have had serial numbers on a cloth tag inside the zipper pocket for about seven years or so.

Yes I know about this cloth tag with serial number, but this bag had a small white leather tag (almost like a LV bag) on the inside but on the side of the bag. You can se the small leather tag on one of the pictures. I thougt this was very stange.

Hi everyone! I'm new here and just managed to pick up what I think is a PS1 medium from a thrift store!

Could you tell me if it's authentic?
