Proenza Schouler has been retooling some of its classic designs lately, and I am really excited about it. This new smaller and brighter version of the PS1 satchel is really thrilling, and a really great addition to its fabulously minimal collection.
The bright yellow leather on the PS1 satchel is pivotal to its success. The leather has a pebbled texture, but not in any dramatic way. And it doesn’t take anything away from the bright color or sleek, minimal look.
The shape of the bag is the same as that of the other PS1s, but smaller. The condensed size works in the bag’s favor. It brings all of the design elements closer together, so the impact is a little great than on the other versions. The simple silver hardware clasp brings the eye right to the center of the bag and makes the quality seam details really pop.
At $1225, the PS1 is expensive, but it’s the kind of bag that will last a lifetime. If you can deal with the everyday excitement of the eye-popping yellow, that is.
