Dual flat handles, an external zip pocket and a beige canvas-lined interior keep you organised from brunch to after-work plans.
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 Mini Lin Lucille GM? A: With approximate measurements of 30 × 30 × 11 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a tablet or e‑reader, a compact umbrella, a small water bottle, and daily essentials. A slim 13‑inch laptop may fit snugly depending on the device and case; please compare your device measurements with the bag’s interior and our photos.
Q: Is it a shoulder bag and what is the drop? A: Yes, the Lucille GM is designed for shoulder carry with dual flat straps. The strap drop on this piece is about 20 cm, which sits neatly under the arm over light layers.
Q: How secure and practical is the design? A: This bag features a top zip closure for secure storage, one exterior zipped pocket for quick‑access items, and a beige fabric interior with one internal pocket to organise smaller essentials.
Q: What is Louis Vuitton Mini Lin and how durable is it? A: Mini Lin is a lightweight jacquard canvas made from a cotton, linen and polyamide blend. It is softer and less rigid than coated Monogram canvas, offering a refined, fabric‑like feel. As with any textile, it can be more prone to colour transfer and abrasion than coated canvas, so a little extra care is recommended.
Q: Any care tips for Mini Lin and leather trim? A: Gently brush off dust with a soft, dry brush and wipe with a barely damp, lint‑free cloth; avoid soaking or harsh cleaners. Let the bag air‑dry naturally away from heat and direct sunlight. For the leather trim, keep it dry and condition sparingly with a neutral leather care product if needed. Store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help it retain shape.
Q: Will dark denim or rain affect the fabric? A: Dark or unwashed denim can transfer dye onto light fabrics, and moisture may set such transfers. If caught in light rain, blot gently with a soft cloth and allow to dry naturally. Consider wearing with colour‑fast clothing and avoid prolonged contact with rough or damp surfaces.
Q: Is the Lucille GM still produced? A: The Mini Lin line was produced in the 2000s and later evolved into the Monogram Idylle range around 2010. This Lucille GM is a vintage model and is available through trusted resale rather than current boutiques.
Q: What does the date code SR0045 mean on this bag? A: SR indicates manufacture in France. For codes used from 1990–2006, the first and third digits show the month and the second and fourth show the year. “0045” decodes to April 2005, matching the period of Mini Lin production.
Q: What is included with this piece? A: Everything included is listed in the product information section for full transparency. For this item, that is the dust bag, luggage tag and padlock.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every piece is examined by our in‑house specialists using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and date codes, supported by advanced tools where appropriate. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to provide further details on request.
