I was gifted this bag by a MIL.
I know there was LV with cherries print similar some years ago, sadly it was well out of my budget as limited edition.
Would you ever use this? I must say I quite like It playfully it but I think it looks like a market replica..

It doesn't look like LV as the leather detailing is wrong and the cherries are the wrong size and not in the neat rows of the real thing. For me I'm afraid it would be a no if you were hoping people would think you own a real LV. If your OK with it as just a fun bag then use it.

Honestly I've always thought LV bags are ugly as fuck and very much like something you'd see on a market stall, and it's only the name that makes them desirable to some.

This bag is quite nice though!

No, I don't want actually to anyone think it's LV copy or anything..
I quite like the bag here, but I hope if I use it I don't want people to think it's a copy or a wannabe of a lv bag..
I only mentioned Lv as I remember they made the cherries print in past plus this shape is like speedy B a bit..

I mean I think it 100% looks like a copy (not replica) of a LV bag. It’s basically a royal rip off but not quite close enough to be mistaken for the real thing IMO.

I think it is ‘inspired’ by LV. If you like it use it.

HoobleDooble · 11/02/2025 06:19

I like it and wouldn't think it was trying to be anything but a nice bag with cherries on.

Use it and enjoy. I think bags are ridiculously overpriced and are treated like precious objects when they really are often too fragile to withstand normal daily usage. Please use your River Island bag without worry and the shape has been around for ever, so yes, looks similar, but without the grief if it is damaged or bashed.

Yes this is inspired bag.
The shape and the monogram is inspired by LV Speedy B and Murakami cherry print.
But it’s not a replica as it has its own River island logos.
Lots of shops do this,
I know there was Cath Kidston bags some years ago who had literally very inspired bag of Gucci with those added flowers details.
Primark does now Goyard inspired.
this one is a pretty bag actually, I do like the cherries. It’s probably the speedy shape what makes it more pronounced, I just check and they have inspired Neverfull style and nano speedy too.

I have a very similar bag, also a gift from extended family. I use it to store Christmas decorations.
