Perfect for weekends away and carry-on organisation, this vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Trousse Toilette 28 keeps grooming essentials in order. Monogram coated canvas, zip-around closure and a beige washable lining with pocket and elastic loops make it a practical companion from hotel bathroom to gym locker.
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 are the measurements and what typically fits inside? A: Approx. 27 × 16.5 × 8 cm. It comfortably holds full‑size toiletries, make‑up bags, an electric shaver, travel brushes and bottles up to about 16 cm tall (taller items can be laid flat). The interior slip pocket and elastic loops help keep small items upright and organised.
Q: Can the Trousse Toilette 28 be used as a clutch or organiser pouch? A: Yes. Its structured, boxy shape stands upright when filled and it slips neatly into a tote, weekender or suitcase. It has no strap or handle, so it’s carried by hand as an oversized clutch or used inside larger bags as an organiser.
Q: Is the Monogram canvas water‑resistant? A: Louis Vuitton’s coated canvas is durable and water‑resistant, and the beige lining is wipe‑clean. However, the piece is not fully waterproof. Avoid soaking, prolonged humidity and contact with oils, perfumes or alcohol‑based products; wipe spills promptly with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Q: Is this pouch acceptable for airport security liquids? A: It is opaque and therefore not a substitute for the transparent, resealable 1‑litre liquids bag required at security. Place liquids in the approved clear bag and keep this pouch in your cabin baggage for general storage.
Q: Does this vintage model have a date code, and what does 841 indicate? A: Many vintage pieces carry a date code stamped along an interior seam or near the pocket. Early‑1980s items often used a numeric format; a code such as 841 typically corresponds to January 1984. Please note a date code is not a unique serial number nor proof of authenticity—our experts authenticate using materials, stamps, hardware, stitching and overall construction.
Q: How should I care for the lining, especially on older pieces? A: For routine care, wipe the lining with a soft cloth slightly dampened with mild soapy water, then dry fully. On some older vintage linings, the protective coating can become tacky or peel with heat/humidity; in that case, avoid solvents and consult a professional restorer for treatment options.
Q: Is the Trousse Toilette 28 still sold new by Louis Vuitton? A: The 28 cm Trousse Toilette is considered a vintage model and is most commonly found on the resale market today. Availability at boutiques can vary by season and region.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section. If an item such as a dust bag or box is not specified there, it is not included.
Q: Can the zip or lining be serviced? A: Louis Vuitton boutiques and authorised repair partners may offer aftercare such as zip replacement or interior work, subject to assessment. Services, prices and turnaround times vary, so please check with your local boutique or a trusted specialist.
Q: How should I store it? A: Store loosely stuffed to maintain shape, in a cool, dry place inside a breathable dust bag. Keep the zip closed without overfilling, and avoid long exposure to direct sunlight or heat sources.
