Who says that satin should only be seen on tiny clutch purses? Yves Saint Laurent throws out the rulebook with this Tanger tote.
By using satin, Yves Saint Laurent has made this simple tote bag much more sophisticated. It’s the sort of bag that seems made for lunch at the country club followed by dinner with a new beau or cocktails with the girls. The satin has a beautiful luster, and that distinctive stitched Y on front and back points to the bag’s heritage in an elegant, subtle way.
I am a little hesitant though. My fears may be unfounded, but I wonder how durable this tote will be. It’s so large that it seems to invite us to load it up, but can the satin withstand the pressure? It’s such a delicate cloth that I’m just not sure. Perhaps it punches above its weight, but for this price I’d want to be certain.
After all, Yves Saint Laurent never comes cheaply and at $645 the Tanger is no exception. If the material can withstand some punishment I’d probably be willing to pay that, but I’m not sure I’d take the risk.
