Much like the Balenciaga City, the Proenza Schouler PS1 was the stylish girl's answer to a designer bag that perfectly walked the line between elevated tailoring and understated bohemian. Named after both the brand itself in initials but also with a nod to NYC public schools, it boasts a top flap, double handles, and a cross-body strap all-in-one, ensuring that the styling potentials are endless. What's more, it also debuted in a multitude of colours, making sure that there was something for everyone. Immediately a hit upon 2008 release (though initially described as the "anti-it bag"…), it was beloved by Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, Kristen Dunst, Jessica Alba, and more.
