Saint Laurent Released the Ultimate French Girl Bag

The 'Le Maillon' is elegantly understated.

Saint Laurent has long been an arbiter of cool, and for Spring/Summer 2021, creative director Anthony Vacarello has released a buzzy new it-bag. Already spotted on the likes of Hailey Bieber and Kate Moss, the cross-body bag is quickly becoming a must-have among those after the French girl look.

Named 'Le Maillon' after the French word for 'link' and inspired by vintage satchels, the bag was launched in seven colors and, notably, lacks a logo. A departure from Saint Laurent's typically logo-emblazoned handbags, Le Maillon's simple gold link detail offers a more understated vibe. Très français.
