Louis Vuitton Vintage 1991 Monceau bag
Louis Vuitton Vintage 1991 Monceau bag
The Tanpopo says
At the Tanpopo Room, we're not heavily sourcing designer bags printed with logos.
BUT the exception goes with this one, the classic vintage Louis Vuitton Monceau bag in size 26 (means 26cm wide).
The idea of a mini, lady-like briefcase bag is so fun, and it's such a preppy, smart and sleek looking bag.
One of those bag that elevates your outfit instantly, even a simple fit.
Detachable (and adjustable) strap makes this a versatile one too!
You can wear this crossbody, on one shoulder, or super cute as top handle.
I personally prefer this classic design much more than the modern adaptation of Pochette Métis, the sharper corners like brief case, gives a much more timeless and if I can say — an edgier appeal!
Very excited to have found one in extremely pristine condition. I wonder if it's a storage item and had never really see the light of day, it's so beautiful.
Except for the zipped pocket inside, which is not usable now, everything else is close to brand-new.
It comes with the original strap basically unused (so rare), two of the original lock keys, and beautiful beautiful gold hardware on all the parts!
