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 Saint Placide Shoulder Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 26 x 17 x 7 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials such as a long wallet, phone, keys, card holder, lipstick and other small personal items. It is compact rather than oversized, so bulkier items such as a tablet or water bottle are unlikely to fit comfortably. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact size of this piece.
Q: Can the Saint Placide be worn on the shoulder and crossbody? A: Yes. The Saint Placide is designed with a sliding chain strap and leather shoulder section, so it can be styled at a shorter length on the shoulder or worn longer for a crossbody look. The exact fit will depend on your height and preferred drop.
Q: What materials and details define this version of the Saint Placide? A: This piece combines Louis Vuitton Monogram coated canvas with a red grained leather flap. It also features gold-tone hardware, a sliding chain strap, red microfibre lining, an internal zipped compartment and an S-lock flap closure.
Q: Is the Saint Placide a good day-to-evening bag? A: Yes, this model is widely appreciated as a day-to-evening style. Its structured shape and monogram canvas make it practical for daytime wear, while the chain strap and polished clasp give it a more elevated look for evenings out.
Q: Are there any wear points buyers often check on this model? A: Yes. Buyers commonly inspect the clasp, corners, flap edges and chain hardware on the Saint Placide. On this specific bag, the overall condition is Very Good with light traces of use, and there are scratches and discolouration on the clasp.
Q: How should I care for Monogram coated canvas and leather? A: Coated canvas can be gently wiped with a soft damp cloth and a little mild soapy water if needed. Avoid perfume, alcohol-based products, oils, leather lotions and harsh cleaners. To help preserve the shape, avoid overfilling the bag and store it in a ventilated area away from direct heat and sunlight.
Q: What does the date code CA0188 indicate? A: Louis Vuitton date codes are not unique serial numbers, but they can help indicate where and when a bag was produced. The code CA0188 points to production in Spain during the 8th week of 2018. As with all Louis Vuitton pieces, the date code should be considered alongside materials, construction and hardware details when assessing authenticity.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This listing is for the bag only. No additional product information is included with this piece.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by in-house experts using details such as materials, construction, stitching, hardware, stamps and date code format. We stand behind the authenticity of the items we sell and can provide further product information on request.
