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 fits inside this cosmetic pouch? A: With approximate measurements of 17 × 7 × 5 cm, it comfortably holds daily touch‑up essentials such as 2–3 lipsticks, an eyeliner or mascara, a compact mirror, blotting papers, and a travel‑size perfume or hand cream. The elastic holders keep slim brushes or pencils in place, and the slip pocket is ideal for flat items like mirror wipes. Capacity varies by how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact dimensions.
Q: Does it have brush holders or pockets? A: Yes. Inside you will find elastic brush holders, two compartments, and one small slip pocket, designed to keep tools and minis organised while you’re on the go.
Q: Will a smartphone fit? A: Most modern smartphones are likely too large for the 7 cm height profile. Very small or slim devices might fit diagonally, but this piece is primarily intended for cosmetics and small grooming items. Comparing your device to the stated measurements is recommended.
Q: Is Louis Vuitton Monogram canvas waterproof? A: The coated canvas is resistant to light moisture but it is not fully waterproof. Avoid soaking or prolonged exposure to rain, and keep away from oils, alcohol‑based products and solvents, which can damage the coating over time.
Q: How should I clean and care for it? A: Wipe the coated canvas with a soft, slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry. Do not use household cleaners, leather lotions, alcohol‑based wipes, or abrasive pads. For the beige leather lining, use a dry soft cloth; if needed, very lightly spot‑clean with a barely damp cloth and let it dry away from heat. Store lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag, away from direct sunlight and humidity.
Q: Is the lining washable? A: This vintage piece has a beige leather lining, so it should not be washed or saturated. Some modern LV brush pouches feature washable coated linings, but leather‑lined vintage pieces should be gently wiped only.
Q: I’ve heard some vintage LV toiletry linings can become sticky—is that an issue here? A: Certain vintage LV toiletry items used a plasticised lining (often called “Vuittonite”) that can degrade and feel sticky over time. This pouch is described with a leather lining, so that specific issue does not apply. If you ever acquire an item with a degrading lining, professional relining is the safest long‑term solution.
Q: Where was this piece made, and does it have a date code? A: It is stamped Made in France. Many vintage small leather goods include a date code on an interior seam or near a pocket; codes can fade with age and are not unique serial numbers. Louis Vuitton began moving from date codes to microchips on new items from 2021 onwards.
Q: Does it come with a dust bag or extras? A: Everything included is listed in the product information section on this page. If an item such as a dust bag or box is not listed there, it is not included.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this item? A: Every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and are happy to share additional photos or details on request.
