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 dimensions and layout of the Louis Vuitton Monogram Vaugirard? A: The Vaugirard is a compact top-handle and crossbody bag measuring approximately 26 cm (W) × 19 cm (H) × 9.5 cm (D). It is crafted in Monogram coated canvas with grained leather trim, has a rolled top handle, a removable and adjustable shoulder strap, gold-tone hardware and a secure S-lock flap. The interior is microfibre-lined with partitioned sections and a flat pocket, and there is an exterior front pocket for quick access. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for this specific piece.
Q: Can it be worn crossbody as well as on the shoulder? A: Yes. The detachable strap is adjustable for shoulder or crossbody wear, and the top handle allows handheld carry. For this specific item, the listed strap drop is approximately 53 cm and the handle drop is approximately 9 cm.
Q: What typically fits inside day-to-day? A: Daily essentials such as a smartphone, compact or continental wallet, keys, small cosmetics and slim sunglasses fit comfortably. Bulky water bottles or full-size tablets are generally too large for this silhouette. Compare your items to the bag’s Measurements to be sure.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under product information. For this piece: box, dust bag and detachable shoulder strap.
Q: How secure is the closure and hardware? A: The flap uses an S-lock push closure designed to stay firmly shut during use. As with all pre-loved pieces, light hairline scratches to the hardware can occur; this item’s hardware is shiny with light scratches as noted in the condition report.
Q: The date code is illegible—how do you authenticate it? A: Many recent Louis Vuitton bags use an embedded microchip, and older heat-stamped date codes can fade with normal use. Our specialists authenticate every item via multi-point checks of materials, construction, stamps and hardware. An illegible code does not affect authenticity when the rest of the bag’s details are consistent and pass our checks.
Q: Where was this bag made? A: This piece is stamped Made in Spain. Louis Vuitton manufactures in several countries; country of origin varies by item and collection.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas, leather trim and lining? A: Wipe coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth; avoid harsh chemicals and alcohol-based cleaners. Do not overfill the bag. Store it loosely stuffed in its dust bag in a cool, ventilated place away from heat. For the microfibre/Alcantara lining, regularly dust with a soft brush or lint roller and follow gentle care methods recommended for Alcantara. Promptly blot any spills and allow to air-dry naturally.
Q: Can I swap the strap for another Louis Vuitton strap? A: Yes. The Vaugirard uses D-rings and a removable strap, so you can attach compatible Louis Vuitton shoulder or crossbody straps to personalise carry and drop length.
Q: Is it practical for everyday use and light rain? A: Monogram coated canvas is durable and offers some water resistance, making the Vaugirard a reliable everyday choice. However, leather components should be kept dry; if exposed to moisture, wipe gently and allow to dry away from direct heat.
