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 Recital Bag? A: This is a compact shoulder bag that is best for essentials such as a smartphone, card holder or slim wallet, keys, lipstick and a few small daily items. With measurements of approximately 20 x 13 x 6 cm, it is ideal for light everyday use or evenings rather than bulkier belongings.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: No. The Recital is designed as a short shoulder or under-arm style. This item has an approximate strap drop of 20 cm, so it is best suited to shoulder carry rather than crossbody wear.
Q: Does the bag have an interior pocket and a secure closure? A: Yes. This model features a magnetic flap closure and one internal pocket, which is useful for keeping smaller essentials organised.
Q: What materials and details does this bag have? A: This piece is made from Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas with natural leather trim, brass hardware and a red microfiber lining. It has the classic compact Recital shape with a single flat shoulder strap.
Q: Is the Recital a good day-to-evening bag? A: Yes. The Recital is known for its neat, structured shoulder silhouette, which makes it easy to style for errands, lunches and evenings out. It works best if you prefer to carry just the essentials.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: It is listed in Very Good condition. The exterior and interior both show light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: A dust bag is included. For the clearest overview of what comes with the bag, please refer to the product information on this page.
Q: Why is the serial number illegible? A: On vintage Louis Vuitton pieces, date codes can become faded or difficult to read over time. For this item, the serial number is noted as illegible in the product information, which can happen with age and regular use.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and natural leather trim? A: Clean the coated canvas gently with a soft damp cloth if needed, and avoid perfume, alcohol-based cleaners, oils and harsh chemicals. The natural leather trim can darken and develop patina over time, so it is best to protect the bag from heavy rain, prolonged moisture and direct heat, and store it in its dust bag when not in use.
