Louis Vuitton Pochette
The Pochette is a true classic from the house of Louis Vuitton . The small evening bag is a real all-rounder. You can wear it not only as an evening bag, but also use it in many different ways. It is a real powerhouse.
In English, pochette means “ small handle bag ” that is so small that only the bare essentials fit in it. It is similar to the minaudière or clutch, the pochette is just a little bit bigger than the minaudière.
Design of the pochette
Like most Louis Vuitton bags, the pochette is made of coated canvas . It is available in the classic monogram and checkerboard pattern. The removable shoulder strap means you can wear it not only as a clutch but also as a shoulder bag. This was originally intended so that you could wear it with a loop around your wrist.
But it's not just the external values that matter, but also the internal ones. The Louis Vuitton Pochette impresses with its robust interior. It is prepared for almost anything. Inside you will find the data code of your bag, which is in one of the corners. The data code tells you the year and place of manufacture.
Thanks to its D-ring, you can use our shoulder strap to transform your used Louis Vuitton Pochette into the perfect crossbody bag. With older models, your bag may only have one D-ring. You can see this in the picture; the front pochette has a second D-ring and the back pochette only one. But here too, you can attach our shoulder strap without any problems. The pochette is a stylish companion that you'll love to take with you.
You can wear your Pochette not only as a shoulder or crossbody bag, because the Pochette is a real all-rounder. When traveling, it is perfect for storing your important documents. Your passport, flight ticket and your essentials will find a safe place in it. But it is also ideal as a cosmetic bag . You can store your favorite make-up in it. And if you need more and are traveling with a shopper, you can easily use your Pochette as a bag in your bag. Because we all know the problem of not being able to find your keys or wallet when we need them quickly. In the Pochette, you always have your things to hand and don't have to spend a long time looking for them in your shopper.
Vintage and used pochettes
But there are also differences between vintage and used pochettes . Depending on how old your bag is, it will have one or two D-rings, as mentioned above. When buying, you should pay attention to the leather straps, as the leather on older models can be dry. If the leather is too dry, we recommend our leather balm . This will give your bag a new shine. Nevertheless, the leather of your used pochette is very robust and can withstand almost anything. The brass fittings on your bag do not discolor as quickly as on other Louis Vuitton models. Another feature of the pochette is that it does not have a leather zipper on the zipper. The zipper on the pochette is made of sturdy brass and will therefore last a long time.
The Pochette by Louis Vuitton is more than just a small party bag. It is multi-talented and will give your wardrobe that certain something. Since the Pochette is currently no longer available at Louis Vuitton , the demand for used or vintage bags is increasing. As demand increases, so too are the prices.
