Very Good Condition
This Louis Vuitton Alma BB in navy Epi leather with silver-tone hardware is a refined day-to-evening choice. In very good condition, it features dual handles, a detachable shoulder strap and a tonal interior with one pocket. Ideal for city outings, lunches or evening plans, it brings polished vintage style to any look.
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 Epi Alma BB Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 24 x 18 x 11 cm, this bag is best for essentials. It will typically hold a smartphone, a compact wallet, keys, lipstick and a few small daily items. Because of its structured dome shape, it is better suited to light packing than bulkier everyday carry.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: Yes. This item includes a detachable shoulder strap, and the listed strap drop is approximately 50 cm. For many people that works well for shoulder or crossbody wear, though the exact fit will depend on your height and where you prefer the bag to sit.
Q: Is the Alma BB practical for everyday use? A: The Alma BB is a popular day-to-evening style, but it is on the compact side. Owners often love its elegant structure and secure zip-top design, while also noting that the opening is narrower than softer bags, so it works best if you carry a pared-down daily edit.
Q: What are the benefits of Epi leather? A: Epi leather is known for its textured finish, structured feel and good day-to-day durability. It is generally more resistant to visible scratching than smoother leathers, which makes it a practical choice for regular use while still keeping a polished look.
Q: How should I care for this Epi leather bag? A: Wipe the leather gently with a soft, light-coloured cloth and avoid soap, solvents, perfume, make-up, hand cream and prolonged heat or direct sunlight. When not in use, store it carefully to help preserve its shape and finish.
Q: What is included with this bag? A: This piece includes a detachable shoulder strap, padlock, keys and clochette. Everything included with the item is listed in the product information on this page.
Q: What is the condition of this item? A: The exterior and interior are in very good condition with light traces of use. The hardware is shiny with light scratches, and the interior has a vintage smell. Please review the photographs and condition notes for the clearest impression of the item's current state.
Q: What does the date code FL1143 indicate? A: In Louis Vuitton's 2007-2021 date code format, the numbers indicate the production week and year. FL1143 corresponds to the 14th week of 2013. A date code is helpful for age and consistency checks, but it should not be used on its own to determine authenticity.
