Louis Vuitton opinions?

[NameChangeUni]

Hi - I am curious which Louis Vuitton style you prefer out of Damier Ebene Canvas (1st photo) or Monogram Canvas (2nd photo)?

(I bought some small items today in Monogram Canvas but kind of regret not getting the other design )

I prefer the first

I really don't like either. What help that is I don't know! Saying that they are very similar and I think the style you went for was much more classic LV.

The first is more understated.

Am I allowed to say neither? It would feel like carrying an advert.

if i had to choose, i'd say the monogram.

they are both very instantly recognisable prints which is obviously what you want isn't it? You know, show that you can afford luxury pieces

by the way, i'm an LV fan.

Well I just bought a card holder and key holder, so really small items so it wouldn’t be too garish. I just posted photos of the clutch to show the differences better? I definitely couldn’t afford the clutch thanks all!

If pushed, I’d go for the first one; the second is more ubiquitous & I’d assume it was counterfeit if I saw someone with an item in that design. I think my holiday purse is a knock off of that design & was bought because it was small and v cheap.

Not keen on either but if I had to choose it would be the first.

DE looks better in this style.

I own LV pieces in both the Damier Ebene and the Monogram along with the Damier Azur. Both are gorgeous and hard wearing.

I do prefer larger pieces in Damier Ebene unless it’s a limited edition such as the Stephen sprouse or their luggage collection.

I have both but prefer monogram , I think a lot of people think LV costs a lot more than it actuality does. My neverfull monogram was cheaper than my mulberry

Neither of them are lovely. At a push I’d choose the first one as at least it’s not quite so obviously garish.

Neither. I just don't get the fascination with LV.

Love the damier. I think it’s actually the ordinal design could be wrong tho

Original I meant

Damier Ebene but both work well for SLGs and are hard wearing in my experience. Can't abide either on the Neverfull though.

I think a lot of people think LV costs a lot more than it actuality does.

I'm not sure about that. I think Louis Vuitton is considered an 'accessible' brand versus ''premium' or 'high end' brands because of the well known low price point of its canvas pieces.

In the small items I prefer the Ebene I think. But then the monogram in the larger bags. I think th Monogram is a bit pointless on a really small item. It's lost.

The thing is, LV actually isn't that cheap. It's not entry level designer price points, like Kate Spade. The totes are £1k+. The teeny pochettes are about £300. It's because it's so often knocked off that people think it's cheaper.

louis vuitton is not accessible - the copies are! £130 for a cardholder in canvas?? £300 for a canvas make up bag? £850 for a ubiquitous canvas tote bag?

Kate Spade, Coach, Longchamp leather (not le pliage) and Marc Jacobs are accessible.

LV is part of the luxury triligogy - Chanel, Hermes and LV.

its very desirable though. i get it, nice blue shirt, jeans and bit of monogram looks timeless.

LV is part of the luxury triligogy - Chanel, Hermes and LV.

Definitely not - Chanel and Hermes are considered premium but not high end brands, Louis Vuitton isn't even premium.

ok, that's not what i had gathered in the bag community . 31k for a lv city steamer in exotic leather? sure its not an £80k hermes but still.

chanelprincess, would you mind sharing what a high end brand is the please?
