In developing the Saint Laurent Sac de Jour, it seems like the brand was betting on the fact that there would be an enthusiastic market for a modernized, anonymized take on the classic Hermès Birkin. Although there was much gnashing of teeth in handbag circles when the design debuted, the bet has paid off in spades for the brand, and famous, stylish women have been some of the bag’s most significant proponents.
In pulling together our coverage of celebrities and what they’re wearing twice a week, we discovered just how saturated the glitterati have become with Sacs de Jour both great and small. Below, check out the bag’s many well-known fans and get a little outfit inspo of your own.
