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 Tote Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 42 x 33 x 15 cm, this is a roomy everyday tote. It can typically hold daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, sunglasses, cosmetics pouch, notebook, water bottle and a light cardigan or scarf. Please use the listed measurements as your best guide for exact capacity.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: A slim 13-inch laptop or tablet will generally fit in a bag of this size, but we always recommend comparing your device measurements with the bag’s listed width, height and depth before purchasing. If you use a padded sleeve or carry bulkier items as well, the fit may feel tighter.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. This Elegie has dual handles as well as a detachable shoulder strap. The handle drop is approximately 19 cm and the strap measurement is approximately 50 cm, so it offers more than one carrying option depending on your preferred fit.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: This bag has a top zip closure with a front push-lock detail, giving it a more secure feel than an open-top tote. It is a practical choice if you prefer your belongings to be more covered during daily use.
Q: What is Monogram Idylle canvas like? A: Monogram Idylle is known for a softer, lighter and more textile-like feel than Louis Vuitton’s classic coated Monogram canvas. It keeps the recognisable monogram look but has a more relaxed, understated appearance, finished here with navy leather trim and brass hardware.
Q: How should I care for Monogram Idylle canvas and leather trim? A: For light cleaning, gently wipe with a soft damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners or home remedies. To help preserve the finish, avoid rough surfaces, prolonged moisture, direct heat and strongly pigmented materials such as dark denim that may cause colour transfer. When not in use, store the bag loosely filled to help maintain its shape.
Q: What is included with this item? A: According to the product information, this piece includes a detachable shoulder strap. If other items are not mentioned in the product information, they should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Does this bag have a serial number or date code? A: No serial number is listed in the product information for this piece. On many vintage Louis Vuitton Elegie bags, the date code can be stamped inside the fold of an interior pocket and may be faint, so it is not always immediately visible.
Q: What condition is this bag in? A: This piece is listed in very good vintage condition with light traces of use externally and internally. The hardware is described as shiny with light scratches, which is consistent with careful pre-owned wear.
