Proenza Schouler PS1
Someone I know recently bought herself the gorgeous Proenza Schouler Medium Suede PS1 while on holiday in Paris. Something she’s wanted for the longest time, she must have scrimped and saved really hard to get herself the bag of her dreams. The point of the story? You can always get what you want as long as you work hard towards it.
But that’s not the point of this post. I wanted to also give you guys a quick update on additional avenues you can now pursue to get yourselves the much coveted PS1. Besides Net-A-Porter (check out the gorgeous Proenza Schouler Large Suede PS1 for USD1995), you can now also check out HGBags, who have started selling them at a reported USD300 less than retail.
And for those who shy away from shopping online here’s more good news. I hear Club21 will be bringing Proenza Schouler’s F/W10 collection into Singapore soon and it will available once their current end-of-season sales end.
So who’s excited? And who here has already bought a PS1 from HGBags?

I can only afford medium but it sounds very small in size… the large bag scares me
me!!! I’ve bought PS1 midnight medium from hgbags and it should be arriving SG this week!!!! So damn exciting about it.
Have been lusting over this bag since I first saw Olsen carrying it. I own an Alexa and am dying to compare the two.
Cool! And don’t forget to share a snapshot or two with us…
definitely will!
i bought a black PS1 XL from someone who got it from net-a-porter early this year.
its a lovely bag and the XL size is perfect for men as well (does not look so handbagish imho).
I am toying with the idea of getting the one in Extra Large too… we’ll see what happens in the coming year.
Hi! The prices at HG Bags are in SGD/USD? Never ordered before and would like to know how to get about doing it! Help?
Thanks a ton!
The prices listed there are in USD Mel.
love the bags! even their clothing line is so attractive.. i’m officially a fan.
Me! Got it off their website through a proxy. Damn, this is bag of wet dreams. The compartments are amazing! Got a medium, a bit small for me but large seems too big. But hardware not the most sturdy, I’m a heavy user.
Try to rotate your bags dear… always helps in prolonging the ‘life’ of each bag… using them continuously just wears them out faster.
Hi BB, is the PS1 medium about the same size as the Mulberry Alexa?
I pre-ordered and bought PS1 medium in red from hgbags, and am highly looking forward to receiving the bag. It should be arriving by next week. Heard so much about the bag and I am soooo excited that I finally can have one. Yay!!
Still tempted. But my Muse Two is already a bitch to open and close, and I’m not sure I want more than one bag with complicated fastenings.
I just purchased the medium PS1 in black on hgbags.. so excited! never purchased from hgbags before.. i’ve heard mostly good things..
Congrats Vivian! And don’t forget to send me a snapshot of it once it arrives in SG ok?
of course, can you tell me more about hgbags by any chance?
ive got the PS1 in large and extra large; mustard yellow and smoke respectively!! i love it but the lamb skin is very….delicate even tiny rain drops on it will leave a watermark. i need to send them to color wash soon but what if it gets stained again?! very high maintenance bag i have to say.
I just bought a PS1 black in large and I find it a little too cumbersome for my frame. Should I switch to a medium instead/and or get an Alexa in loopy purple suede? Help!
Get something you’ll definitely use, and which you’ll pick eventually is really up to you but I’m leaning more on the PS1 on this.
Thanks! I think you might be right, I love the PS1 too much!
ive been dying to get some PS1 in my hands too !! i dont like online shopping, so I guess I’ll just wait for club21 to import these babies and I’ll fly to singapore to purchase them.
Looks like HGBAGS is the place to get a PS1 bag… is that the only place to get it at?
net-a-porter and mytheresa too. and they have fantastic service. have bought the PS1 on behalf of a friend in sg as i live in london and shop on NAP regularly.
What size of PS1 would you recommend to a guy of 180 cm medium built, large or extra large?
Given your height I’ll say go for the one in Extra Large.
Is HGbags reliable? I’ve heard some stories about them…
What exactly did you hear?
It’s a beautiful bag but I find the workmanship a little bad. I have a large PS1 and the pin to hold the clasp in place broke! I didn’t even put too much in it.
Did you contact them directly? If I not wrong they will do repairs for it at no extra charge. Do send them an email will all the details.
I already did. Sent them an email and all they offered was to send me the spare parts! They said that if it’s not purchased directly I’ll need to send it back to the store! I bought it from Saks Dubai and I live in Malaysia.
I’m so in love with the bright red PS1 – I have a couple of questions.
1) I’m quite a big girl (1.7m tall) so would the large/medium PS1 suit me better?
2) Net-a-Porter only has the Extra Large satchel. I see HGbags having stock of the large bright red PS1. But do you know if it’s authentic and reliable? Or alternatively, do you know where else i can get it?
Thanks in advance!
Either should be fine, depending on what you’ll be using it for.
