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 Trousse Toilette 23? A: With approximate dimensions of 23 × 14.5 × 6 cm, it comfortably holds daily toiletries and cosmetics such as a compact hairbrush, razor, deodorant, travel‑size bottles (up to 100 ml), skincare, and make‑up. Slim tech or small essentials like cables and a compact power bank also fit. Capacity depends on how you pack and the shape of each item—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Does it come with a strap or D‑rings, and can it be worn crossbody? A: The Trousse Toilette 23 is designed as a pouch and does not include a strap or built‑in D‑rings. Many owners use it as a handheld clutch, and some choose third‑party inserts or encasements with D‑rings to add a strap. Any aftermarket conversion is not affiliated with Louis Vuitton and may affect brand after‑sales support—use at your discretion.
Q: Is the lining washable and how do I clean it? A: Yes—this model features a beige, wipe‑clean washable lining with one slip pocket and elastic holders. To maintain it, empty the pouch, wipe gently with a soft damp cloth, and allow it to air‑dry. Avoid harsh chemicals, acetone, or alcohol‑based products. If an older lining becomes sticky (a known vintage issue), consult a professional restorer for safe treatment.
Q: How durable is the Monogram canvas and what care is recommended? A: Louis Vuitton’s coated canvas is robust and resists light rain and surface dirt. Wipe with a soft damp cloth and dry promptly; keep away from oils, inks, colour transfer, and prolonged heat or direct sunlight. Store loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag with the zip closed to help retain shape; avoid overfilling to prevent stress on the zip and seams.
Q: Can I use it as a clutch or as an in‑bag organiser? A: Absolutely. The Trousse 23’s structured shape, flat base, and top zip make it a practical clutch for essentials, and it also works well as an organiser inside larger totes and carry‑ons. The interior elastic loops help keep small bottles upright and tidy.
Q: How does the 23 compare with the other Trousse sizes? A: The series was made in three main sizes. Approximate dimensions are: Trousse 18 at about 18 × 12.5 × 6 cm (compact); Trousse 23 at about 23 × 14.5 × 6 cm (medium, this item); and Trousse 28 at about 28 × 16 × 8 cm (roomiest). Choose based on how much you carry and whether you plan to use it as a pouch or clutch.
Q: Is the Trousse Toilette 23 still in production? A: No—this is a vintage, discontinued model now found on the pre‑owned market. Its functional design and classic Monogram canvas make it a popular, enduring choice for travel and everyday organisation.
Q: Where was this piece made? A: This particular item is stamped France, consistent with many vintage Trousse pieces. Country stamps can vary by production year and factory across the Trousse line.
Q: What does a Louis Vuitton date code signify on vintage pieces? A: On vintage LV, date codes indicate the place and time period of manufacture, but they are not unique serial numbers and are not a stand‑alone proof of authenticity. Early‑to‑mid‑1980s items may show three‑ or four‑digit codes, while later codes include letters. Our in‑house team authenticates each piece using multiple checkpoints beyond the code.
Q: What accessories are included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under Accessories on this page. For this specific piece, there are no accessories included; if you need confirmation, please contact us.
