Pre-Loved Louis Vuitton Favorite
A slim clutch-to-cross-body that does both jobs
The Favorite is a lightweight, envelope-shaped bag that converts from a chain-strap shoulder bag to a hand-held clutch by removing the strap. It is one of the more accessible entry points into Louis Vuitton, favoured for evenings out and pared-back daytime looks. Its slim profile carries the essentials without bulk.

Why the Favorite is iconic
It distilled the appeal of the monogram into a compact, dressed-up silhouette at a friendlier price point, widening the brand's reach. The versatile chain-and-clutch format made it a quiet bestseller for those wanting one bag to span day and night.
What to pay pre-owned
Pre-owned Favorite typically sells for around £600 to £1,000, with a median near £792; the larger MM commands more than the discontinued PM. Condition of the chain plating, the magnetic flap and the leather trim moves price most, as does the more sought-after Damier Azur in summer.
Sizes & variants
Produced in PM and MM sizes across Monogram, Damier Ebene and Damier Azur coated canvas, with a removable gold-tone chain strap and a leather-trimmed magnetic flap.
How to authenticate
- 1.Check the date code stamped inside the bag and confirm it is consistent with the era and materials of the piece.
- 2.Inspect the flap stitching and canvas alignment for regularity, and confirm the monogram or Damier pattern runs symmetrically to the seams.
- 3.Feel the weight of the chain and clasp and examine the engraved hardware for sharp, evenly struck lettering; purchase through a seller with an authentication guarantee.
Guidance only — always buy from sellers offering an authentication guarantee.
Buying a pre-owned Louis Vuitton Favorite — FAQs
Can the Favorite really be worn as a clutch?
Yes. The chain strap is fully removable, so the bag works as a slim hand-held clutch for evenings and as a chain shoulder bag by day.
How much fits inside?
It is designed for essentials: a phone, cards, keys and a slim lipstick. The MM offers a little more room than the PM but remains a compact bag.
Is it still in production?
Availability has shifted over time and some configurations are no longer made, which can add appeal on the pre-owned market. Buy on condition and authentication rather than assuming current retail stock.
