An elegant choice for a wedding, cocktail soirée or dinner in the city, this Louis Vuitton Monogram Favorite MM keeps your essentials close while elevating any outfit. Wear it on the shoulder for hands‑free ease or carry it as a refined clutch from day to night.
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 Favorite MM? A: With approximate interior capacity based on its measurements (about 25 × 15 × 5 cm), it fits a large smartphone, compact or small wallet/card holder, keys, and a few small essentials like lipstick or hand sanitiser. Bulkier pouches or thick sunglasses cases may limit space. For exact dimensions, please refer to the Measurements on this page.
Q: Can I wear it crossbody and on the shoulder? A: Yes. It comes with a detachable leather shoulder strap for crossbody or shoulder wear (approx. 55 cm drop) and a short chain strap for shoulder/hand carry (approx. 20 cm drop). The leather strap on this model is typically non‑adjustable.
Q: Is the Favorite MM discontinued? A: Yes, the classic Monogram Favorite MM has been discontinued by Louis Vuitton and is now mainly available on the pre‑loved market. Louis Vuitton later introduced a different “Favorite” design in Empreinte leather, which is not the same as this canvas version.
Q: What are the differences between the Favorite PM and MM? A: The styles are essentially the same; the MM is the larger, more practical size for daily essentials, while the PM is more compact for minimal carry or evenings. Exact measurements vary slightly by production run—please check the Measurements provided for this individual piece.
Q: How secure is the magnetic flap closure? A: The flap closes with a concealed magnetic bar designed for quick, secure access in everyday use. As with any magnet, avoid placing hotel key cards or other magnet‑sensitive items directly against the closure.
Q: What does the date code DU0156 mean? A: DU indicates manufacture in France. In the 2007–2021 format, the first and third numbers show the production week and the second and fourth show the year. DU0156 therefore corresponds to the 5th week of 2016 in France.
Q: What lining and compartments does it have? A: This piece has a burgundy textile lining with one internal flat pocket for small items like cards or receipts.
Q: Is the leather strap replaceable or extendable? A: The original leather strap is detachable but not adjustable. Many owners purchase alternative adjustable straps if they prefer a longer or different drop; if you plan to do so, choose a strap compatible with the D‑rings on this model.
Q: What exactly is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page. For this specific piece, it includes a dust bag and the detachable leather shoulder strap.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram canvas and Vachetta leather? A: Wipe coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Vachetta leather is untreated and will develop a natural patina; avoid water, oils and prolonged sunlight. Store loosely filled in its dust bag in a cool, dry place to help maintain shape and minimise creasing.
