Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Monogram Idylle Elegie Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 40 x 33 x 11 cm, it is well suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, sunglasses case, pouch, water bottle and notebook. It can also take A4 papers, and many slim 13-inch laptops may fit, although this depends on the thickness of the device and whether it is in a padded sleeve.
Q: Can this bag be carried in more than one way? A: Yes. It has dual top handles with an approximately 18 cm handle drop for hand or arm carry, and this item also includes a detachable shoulder strap with an approximately 50 cm drop for comfortable shoulder wear.
Q: Does this bag close securely? A: Yes. The Elegie design combines a front push-lock detail with a zip-top opening underneath, so it offers more security than an open tote while still being easy to access.
Q: What is Monogram Idylle canvas? A: Monogram Idylle is Louis Vuitton’s lighter, softer monogram canvas line, designed to feel more relaxed and flexible than the brand’s classic coated canvas. It is popular with buyers who want an everyday bag with a less rigid feel.
Q: Is this a good everyday bag? A: Yes, it is generally considered a practical everyday style thanks to its roomy proportions, lighter canvas construction and multiple carrying options. It works especially well if you want a spacious bag that still feels refined rather than bulky.
Q: Is colour transfer something to be aware of? A: It can be. As with many textile-based luxury bags, dark denim and heavily dyed clothing may transfer colour if there is frequent rubbing. It is best to be a little cautious with dark garments, especially in damp conditions.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Avoid overfilling it, prolonged direct sunlight and contact with oils, perfumes or harsh cleaning products. For light surface marks, use a soft damp cloth only, and store the bag in a breathable dust bag or ventilated area when not in use to help maintain its shape.
Q: Where is the date code usually found on this model? A: Louis Vuitton bags from this period typically use a date code rather than a serial number. On the Idylle Elegie, it is often reported to be discreetly stamped inside the fold or crease of an interior pocket, so it can be easy to miss at first glance.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This item comes with a detachable shoulder strap, as listed in the product information. If you would like confirmation of any other inclusions, we recommend checking with us before purchase.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This piece is described as being in very good condition overall, with light traces of use to both the exterior and interior. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful previous wear.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: The country of origin label for this item states France.
