Presenting the Louis Vuitton Capucines Bag.The Louis Vuitton Capucines was first introduced in the Fall/Winter 2013 collection.The bag takes its name from the Rue des Capucines in Paris where Louis Vuitton opened his first store in 1854. Louis Vuitton needed to regain back its lost exclusivity, since many people are now lugging around the typical canvas monograms. Hence, the bag's price-point may firmly put the LV brand into Hermes territory which reflects the strong symbol of the exclusivity.
The bag has actually two-faces and can be worn in two ways; the front flap can be hidden inside and it will show the LV initials in the middle bring a little sparkle. The flap can also be clasped on the front, which displays the LV monogram flower button,reminiscent of Louis Vuitton’s signature monogram icon. It has a semi-rigid top handle attached by jewel like rings. Its sides angle out like a slight trapezoid giving it a modern touch. The Capucines combines its sleek aesthetic with functionality as it features two inside compartments,1 flat and 1 zippered, and an inside flap for added security. The Capuciness bag is easily carried by hand, in the crook of the elbow or even over the shoulder.
The Capucines is available in a variety of smooth and exotic leathers and even special materials like tweeds and furs. The bag is made out of full-grain Taurillon calf leather, the same leather used by Hermes for its exclusivity. Hence, the subject leather with its signature texture is very durable, strong, and of very high quality.The bags' hardware varies between silver and gold, depending on the leather color.
The bag comes in 3 sizes BB, MM, and GM. The BB size features a long strap for cross body wear.While, both MM and GM are only 1.5 inch difference from each other. Currently, the MM is offered in ten colors, while GM only comes in Cherry Red and Black. Each season, the Capucines is introduced in even more rich, vivid colors, including one that's strikingly similar to Hermes' signature orange.
The Capucines embodies classic elegance. A bag that deserved to be admired and one bag that every woman should definitely own..
