Pair it with knitwear and jeans for brunch or a trench and loafers for a polished commute—the timeless Monogram brings refined ease from dawn to dusk.
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 Louis Vuitton Delightful PM? A: Despite being the "PM" (Small Model), the Delightful is a spacious hobo bag. It comfortably holds daily essentials: a large smartphone, continental wallet, cosmetic pouch, sunglasses, keys, and a water bottle. Due to its generous width (approx. 46 cm), it can often accommodate A4 documents or a compact 13-inch laptop, though the bag's slouchy shape means structured items may not sit perfectly flat. Please refer to the Measurements on this page or ask us for a fit check for your specific items.
Q: Can I wear this bag crossbody? A: The Delightful PM features a single flat leather shoulder strap designed specifically for comfortable shoulder carry. The strap is not long enough for crossbody wear on most individuals, and it is not adjustable. We list the strap measurement (approx. 55 cm) to help you gauge the fit—if you need to know the precise drop to the top of the bag, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: This model features an open-top design secured by a central gold-tone clasp (snap hook). While it allows easy access to your belongings, it is not fully sealed like a zipped bag. For valuables, we recommend using the internal zipped pocket or placing them in a separate pouch inside.
Q: What is the interior layout? A: The interior is lined with Louis Vuitton’s heritage-inspired striped textile fabric. It features a spacious main compartment and one large internal zipped pocket. There is also a D-ring inside, often used to attach a key holder or pouch.
Q: How should I care for the Monogram Canvas and Vachetta leather? A: The coated Monogram Canvas is durable and water-resistant—wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth. The trim is made of Vachetta (natural cowhide leather), which is untreated and sensitive to water, oils, and sunlight. It will develop a deeper honey-coloured patina over time, which is a natural characteristic. Avoid getting the leather wet to prevent water spots, and be mindful of hand lotions or oils transferring to the handle.
Q: Is the Delightful PM still produced? A: No, the Delightful line has been discontinued by Louis Vuitton, making it a sought-after piece on the pre-loved market. It is often compared to the current "Graceful" model but remains a favourite for its classic hobo silhouette and comfortable wide handle.
Q: Where are the date code and markings located? A: On this model, the date code is typically found stamped on a leather tab inside the inner zipped pocket. This specific piece has the code FL1101, indicating it was manufactured in France in early 2011. You will also find the "Louis Vuitton Paris" heat stamp on the Vachetta leather.
Q: What accessories are included with this bag? A: All included items are listed under the "Accessories" section on this page. For this specific listing, no additional accessories (such as a dust bag or box) are included.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date codes, and overall construction. We verify the specific characteristics of the Delightful, such as the canvas weight, lining texture, and font types, to ensure authenticity.
