Perfect for weekend getaways or daily commutes, this compact Louis Vuitton Monogram Toiletry Pouch 23 keeps grooming essentials neatly together. Slip it into your carry-on or tote for stylish organisation from airport lounge to hotel suite.
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 are the measurements and what typically fits inside? A: The pouch measures approximately 23 × 15 × 6 cm. It comfortably holds daily grooming items such as travel‑size bottles, make‑up, a compact wallet, passport, keys and charging cables. For larger devices or items, please compare your dimensions to the measurements to ensure a good fit.
Q: Can I use it as a clutch or convert it to a crossbody? A: As a compact pouch with a zip‑around closure, it works well as a handheld clutch. It does not have built‑in D‑rings or a strap. Some owners use third‑party organisers with rings or chains to convert similar pouches, but any modification is at your own discretion and may affect wear; A Retro Tale does not supply conversion parts.
Q: What is the interior like? A: This vintage model has a beige leather lining with a small flat pocket and elasticated holders to secure bottles or brushes, helping to keep contents tidy and upright.
Q: Is Monogram coated canvas durable and water‑resistant? A: Louis Vuitton’s coated canvas is sturdy and water‑resistant for everyday use. Wipe gently with a slightly damp cloth and mild soapy water, and avoid alcohol‑based products, harsh cleaners or oils. Allow to dry naturally.
Q: How should I care for the leather lining and store the pouch? A: Keep the interior dry and free from spilled liquids; wipe with a soft, dry cloth if needed. Do not use abrasive cleaners inside. When not in use, store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag in a cool, ventilated place, away from direct heat and humidity.
Q: Is the Trousse/Toiletry 23 still in production? A: This is a vintage, discontinued style. Availability is on the pre‑loved market, and individual pieces can vary slightly by year of production.
Q: What does the date code TH 8905 indicate? A: TH is a French factory code. On late‑1980s pieces, the first two digits represent the year and the last two the month, so 8905 points to production in May 1989 in France. Date codes are not unique serial numbers and are not proof of authenticity on their own.
Q: Does it come with a strap, dust bag or extras? A: Everything included is listed under product information for this item. If a dust bag, strap, box or other extras are not listed there, they are not included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every piece at A Retro Tale is verified by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, stamps and hardware, including review of the date code and manufacturing details. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
