Hi all, I just purchased a Sunset medium on the preloved market and was wondering if it’s normal that the clochette is blank? Is it simply an older model? I’ve seen plenty of photos and reviews of the clochette having “Saint Laurent” on it so just wanted to clarify. Thanks I’m advance :)

Hi all.. this is my first time here to seek opinions on this bag if it is real python or embossed.

Does it look embossed or is it real python ? It is being advertised as real python by the website but I've been scouring through the Web and it seems like both real and embossed python can have the scales lift up effect.

Your help will be very much appreciated

I purchased in smooth leather and the gold hardware is the antique finish. I have YSLs in both antique & shiny gold finish and find that the antique does not have any issues with tarnishing or scratches, but the shiny gold does wear with scratch marks over time.

How is the leather holding up? Wear and tear?

I got my Sunset in 2017 and I still love her. I sold my Chanel and LV bags and I don’t see myself letting go of this one. I wouldn’t say it’s a bag for dressy looks (ie not really right for a wedding or black tie gala type of event), but yes for a more polished look (ie sleek blazer/tailored trousers). Great with just jeans & a tshirt too! I get so many compliments when I wear the bag out. To me, she’s a gorgeous shade of gray and is very hassle-free. Not that I throw my bags around, but I don’t feel the need to handle this bag super gingerly or always have the dustbag on it. Haha threw in the pumpkins for a silly end of fall shoutout.

52CF273E-3B35-4B9E-A910-F01F304BC806.jpegJust bought my first sunset, second ysl, I love it, I think it is so beautiful… I’m a little worried about the hardware tarnishing, I wish it was antique but I know I’d scratch the smooth leather. It is on the heavier side but it’s just for nights out, also I’m worried about color transfer, does anyone know if it’s safe to spray apple garde on this bag? Thanks In advance :)

Hi everyone!
At the end of this year I am purchasing a Saint Laurent Sunset from YSL Website. Have fallen in love with it. I want black croc with the gold hardware. The only issue is size. I have been torn between the Medium and the Large. The Large is Dimensions: 27 x 18 x 8 CM / 10.6 x 7 x 3.1 INCHES. The medium is Dimensions: 22 x 16 x 8 CM / 8.6 x 6.2 x 3.1 inches. I have a brick wallet that I love to carry around and could not part with it. I think it would fit comfortable in the large along with my reading glasses. I have seen the medium discussed, but has anyone owned the large. I am 5 feet 8 inches so the large wouldn't be dwarfing me.

Has anyone purchased the large? How do you feel about it? How does it wear? It is a smidge of a difference, but might give me the comfort room I need. Thank you for your thoughts!

I don’t have the large but have the medium croc silver and it is quite hefty on its own. So maybe consider the use, i wouldn’t want this to be my everyday bag since it can get heavy. I’d rather use my lou lou. Hope this info helps!

I’m debating between the sunset in black croc w black hardware or the LV twist bag in black with silver hardware. I’d purchase the sunset new (I’m in Spain right now) and would likely buy the twist second hand- so would come out to around the same price. I just tried them both in the store and am equally excited about both. Votes??

Omg gorgeous choices! You can’t go wrong with either but I think I like the LV a tiny bit more. I think you should post a poll and get more feedback from people who have tried them out and are more familiar with them. Fun choice to make though! Please share once you get one of them ❤️
