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 Vernis Alma BB Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 24 x 18 x 11.5 cm, it comfortably fits daily essentials such as a phone, small wallet or card holder, keys, lipstick, tissues and sunglasses. The structured shape uses space well, but the narrow top opening means bulky items or large continental wallets may be a squeeze.
Q: Can this bag be worn crossbody? A: Yes. This piece includes a detachable shoulder strap, so it can be carried by the top handles or worn on the shoulder or crossbody depending on your height and preferred fit. The strap measurement on this page is approximately 57 cm, and the handle drop is approximately 9 cm.
Q: What material is this bag made from? A: This Alma BB is crafted in beige Monogram Vernis leather with brass hardware. Vernis is Louis Vuitton's glossy embossed leather, known for its polished finish and structured look.
Q: Is Vernis leather delicate? A: Vernis is durable for careful day-to-day use, but it does benefit from mindful handling. Light shades can be more sensitive to colour transfer, surface marks and yellowing over time, so it is best kept away from dark denim, magazines, other leathers, prolonged sunlight and heat.
Q: How should I care for this bag? A: Wipe it gently with a soft, light-coloured cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, oils or solvents. Do not overfill it, and store it in a breathable dust bag or felt pouch with light stuffing inside to help maintain its shape. Keep it dry and away from direct sunlight, humidity and heat sources.
Q: Is the Alma BB easy to access during the day? A: The two-way zip keeps your belongings secure, but the Alma's structured dome shape means the opening is narrower than softer bags. It works very well for smaller essentials, though very bulky items can be less convenient to take in and out quickly.
Q: What is the condition of this specific bag? A: This vintage piece is listed in very good condition. The exterior has marks on the leather, the interior shows light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. Please review all photos and the condition notes for the best overall impression.
Q: What is included with this item? A: This bag comes with a detachable shoulder strap, padlock and keys. Everything included with the item is listed in the Product information section on this page.
Q: Does it have pockets and a secure closure? A: Yes. It features a two-way zip closure and one internal pocket, which helps keep a few small essentials organised while maintaining the bag's elegant silhouette.
Q: Is the Alma BB a good everyday bag? A: The Alma BB works best as a compact day-to-evening bag. It is ideal if you carry the essentials and want a structured, elegant shape, but it is not intended to replace a larger daily tote.
