Celebrities Choose Proenza Schouler PS1 Bags

The men behind Proenza Schouler love their mothers. After all, their fashion house is named after the women who raised them. Proenza Schouler began in 1998 as Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCoullough’s senior project at Parsons School of Design.

However, by the time they rolled out their first collection, it was snatched up by Barneys New York. In 2004, Proenza Schouler launched its first shoe collection with great reception.

Today, you will find the brand’s chunky sweaters, killer platform pumps, sophisticated eyewear and their first handbag line, PS1, inspired by a classic satchel, which has been modernized into a timeless version with lush leathers and chic shapes. That is PS1 handbags I would like to talk about now.

PS1 collection, which stands for The First Handbag Line from Proenza Schouler, includes bags of medium and large dimensions of different colors. The majority of them are made from leather, but there are some bags from suede. Let’s take a look at the details.

First of all, these urban looking satchels are perfect for Fall - Winter 2010/11, they feature gold hardware, a handle and detachable buckle shoulder strap, fold-over flap with lock and strap fastening. I personally love that the handle is detachable, and PS1 can be carried both on the shoulder and in the arm.

At the front part of the PS1 bag you can see large compartments, there is also one zipped compartment at back. If you look in inside you will see signature lining, a zipped compartment, press stud at top to fasten.
