Q: What typically fits inside the Louis Vuitton Alma PM? A: The Alma PM is a structured medium handbag that generally carries daily essentials: smartphone, compact wallet or cardholder, keys, lipstick, slim sunglasses case, small cosmetics pouch and an A5 notebook. A full A4 folder or large water bottle usually won’t fit comfortably due to the curved opening. Capacity can vary slightly by production era—please refer to the Measurements on this page or contact us for tailored fit advice for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or laptop? A: Small tablets (e.g., iPad mini) usually fit; some standard 9–10-inch tablets may fit depending on case thickness and the bag’s opening. Laptops generally do not fit in the Alma PM. For certainty, compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements listed or ask us to perform a quick fit check for this item.
Q: Is the Alma PM designed for shoulder or crossbody wear? A: The classic Alma PM is a handheld/top-handle bag with fixed, non-adjustable handles and is not intended for crossbody wear. Certain “Bandoulière” editions feature dedicated strap attachments, but many Monogram Alma PMs do not. We’ll list the handle drop under Measurements—if anything is missing, just ask and we’ll confirm for you.
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.

Laptops generally do not fit in the Alma PM. For certainty, compare your device’s dimensions with the Measurements listed or ask us to perform a quick fit check for this item.
Q: Is the Alma PM designed for shoulder or crossbody wear? A: The classic Alma PM is a handheld/top-handle bag with fixed, non-adjustable handles and is not intended for crossbody wear. Certain “Bandoulière” editions feature dedicated strap attachments, but many Monogram Alma PMs do not. We’ll list the handle drop under Measurements—if anything is missing, just ask and we’ll confirm for you.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: Alma PM typically features a double zip closure with a padlock for added security. Interiors commonly include slip pockets for small items. The structured base often has protective studs (feet) to help the bag stand and reduce wear. Pocket layout can vary by year—please review our photos and description for the exact configuration of this piece.
Q: What materials is it made from? A: Classic Alma PM bags are commonly crafted in Monogram coated canvas with natural cowhide (vachetta) leather trim and gold-tone hardware; linings are typically textile. Vachetta is untreated and develops a patina (darkens) over time. Our listing specifies the exact materials and hardware finish for this item.
Q: How should I care for Monogram canvas and vachetta leather? A: Coated canvas is durable—wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth and avoid harsh cleaners. Vachetta is sensitive to moisture and oils; avoid rain and colour transfer from dark denim, and handle with clean hands. If needed, use a high-quality neutral leather conditioner very sparingly on trim only (test first on a discreet area). Store the bag lightly stuffed, upright, in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and heat, and avoid overfilling to maintain its shape.
Q: Will the base and corners scuff easily? A: The structured vachetta base can show scuffs over time, especially at corners. To minimise wear, avoid rough surfaces, rotate carry to prevent repeated stress on the same areas, and use a soft liner/pouch inside to organise contents and reduce bulging. When setting the bag down, use the protective feet and keep it away from moisture.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located? A: Authentic Louis Vuitton bags have an interior heat‑stamp (e.g., “LOUIS VUITTON Paris” and country of origin). Older pieces typically include a date code on a small leather tab or along an interior seam; from around 2021 LV transitioned to embedded microchips rather than visible date codes. Placement and format vary by era—contact us for close‑up photos of this item.
Q: Is the Alma PM still produced? A: The Alma line is ongoing, though specific materials (e.g., Monogram, Epi, Vernis), linings and strap configurations can vary by season and year. Availability of particular combinations changes over time—pre‑loved specialists like A Retro Tale are ideal for finding specific versions.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: Any included items (e.g., dust bag, padlock, keys, clochette) are listed under “Accessories.” If an accessory isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and date code/microchip. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
