Quoting myself here, but my SL Loulou arrived today from Vitkac. It didn’t come in the SL box but a black Vitkac box. The one thing about this bag that I’m questioning is that the rings or grommets at the top of the bag where the chain comes through are not straight (the SL wording). I hope this doesn’t mean it’s a knock-off. I will have to do some research about this. The inside of the dust bag is white - is that normal?

See pics!

Congrats on your first YSL. Yes, the inside of the dust bag is white. My grommets are not perfectly straight either. Here are pics…

Thanks so much! I have seen some other Loulou’s for sale on Poshmark etc where the grommets aren’t straight. These came from Nordstrom etc.

Hello TOpurselover,
Yes, the interior of Saint Laurent dust bags are white. I have also just purchased a Large Envelope bag in Matte Black from Vitkac. My bag appears authentic of my bag, as the bag matches the frommets, interior stamping, etc. As those on my other YSL bags recently bought from other reputable retailers: Saint Laurent, Farfetch, and Selfridges. The grommet lettering on mine appear more straight than yours. But your bag appears to be authentic. But you may be more rest assured if you had it authenticated in the appropriate thread.

Thank you so much. Did your Envelope bag from Vitkac come in a SL box or a Vitkac box?

I may consider paying for the bag to be authenticated. Just to be on the safe side. As you can see, I am very paranoid about being sold a knock-off!

Edit: the interior stamping of my bag seems legit.

I recently purchased SL bags from both Ssense and Fwrd and they didn’t come in SL boxes. I believe you only get the box if you order directly from SL, or if it’s an SLG. Congrats on your new bag!!

Hello,

Yes, my purse from Vitcak was delivered in a Vitkac box tied with ribbon. Generally, I have only experienced and seen items sent in SL boxes when the bag is purchased directly from SL or the item is a SLG.

I have only received a Saint Laurent box when purchasing from the actual boutique, never from Neiman Marcus.

Vitkac is HUGE department store, like Neimans -state side-. I have purchased from there all the time- everything is legit. No need to be extra paranoid.

Is this real? I’m seeing the YSL monogram clutch on Harrods for $564, but it’s supposed to retail for around $725?

I agree! I have bought several bags from Vitkac and also visited their Warsaw store in Poland. Its a very high end departmental store. Legit and great customer service.

Wow, great find. Does anyone know of any other European retailers like Vitkac? They’re sold out of the small loulou puffer in beige but it’s sooo much cheaper than in the US!

Yeah I did. Even they aren’t this cheap!

Apparently the YSL private sale has started in Australia. Does anyone have the link?

Purchased this Ysl pouch from Woodbury commons today. This pouch is still full price online at Saks 5th Ave and Nordstrom. I saved a little over 300.00 from retail price.
