Louis Vuitton Damier Trevi
9.12.2007 | by Twiggers | under: Louis Vuitton
One of the deciding factors when I purchase a new handbag is whether or not the bag is functional. If I can’t fit all my ‘stuff’ (which sometimes can include the kitchen sink) in it, then what is the point of paying upwards of $1000 for the bag? I am also not a huge fan of letting the weather dictate which bag I can carry that day. I just want to grab a bag, sling it on my shoulder, and run out the door! Thus, the Louis Vuitton Damier line has always appealed to me. These bags can take a beating and never show it! I have seen bags that are 10 years old and look like brand new. The problem with this line is that the bag has never been just right. The bags have always been a little too fancy and grown-up for my taste (e.g. Duomo) or a bit too casual (e.g. Saleya).
Louis Vuitton has finally got it right with the new Louis Vuitton Damier Trevi. This bag, just released earlier this month, is certainly functional. It can be a shoulder bag, or the strap can be removed and carried by hand. The zippered top provides security from prying hands. The pleat adds volume and a funky edge to keep it youthful, but not too casual. In additional to all these wonderful attributes the bag also comes in two sizes. The GM (16 x 12 x 
is big enough to carry around the kitchen sink, while the PM (13 x 9 x6) is just big enough to fit all the essentials without being overloaded. And of course the price…at only $1725 for the GM and $1425 for the PM it is not too overwhelming! At least my bank account didn’t shudder in disbelief for once!

Gorgeous!!! That all I have to say, gorgeous. I’m not a huge LV fan, but these are beautiful. Functional and stylish, I love it.
I spent all of the evening oogling these bags on the LV website yesterday! Perfect. My fav is the PM though. I dunno why but I always seem attracted to the smaller versions of Lv bags.
I love the style!
Wow, finally something to consider. Price is great, shape is wonderful,
how are the insides? any pockets etc?
i think there is a phone pocket and another lining pocket! and lining is red! visit the site vuitton.com to view
this bag is indeed heartwarming! something to consider for me too
My wife said NO when I tried to buy the GM version. I like it, she says it’s an ugly piece for old ladies
Am addicted to LV bags, but dont seem to like this particular Damier type….sorry LV..guess u didnt get it right this time around.
i stared and i stared to see why this bag looked so appealing or what was so familiar about it.
then i realized it looks like the MJ STAM! but without quilts!
i still love it though!!!!
It looks very appealing to me.. but still I have to see it in person to decide which size to buy…
This bag is classy and beautiful! Of course everyone isnt going to love it. We all have our own unique style but it
takes a certain type of woman classy enough to wear this bag! It would’nt look right on anyone. Only the bold and the beautiful and those with the nerve! This bag has a life of it’s very own! You can wear it with jeans You can wear it with a suit, a black dress etc. But one thing for sure is You see the bag coming around the corner before the person. A life of it’s own. Come on ladies it’s a must have!!
i bought the smaller one and it is so amazing im in in love with this bag because its still big enough to put all my stuff and the style with with strap is so classy!! this is the first damier bag i have as i am a lv collector and wasnt much for damier except the azur one but i must say this is for me!!(now i have to get the wallet to match lol).
I went to the store today looking for a Marc Jacobs bag with my husband and the one I really wanted was all sold out : [ Then we went around the city and wondered into LV (I never reallly liked LV, it is so overpriced) and OMG little did I know. The moment I set my eyes on this beauty that reminds me so much of MJ purses… IT IS TRULY GORGEOUS. and Of course, my husband got it for me with a matching wallet! : ] AND YES. THIS IS THE MOST EXPENSIVE BAG EVER… but like baglover said, it IS WORTH IT!!!!
It was love at first sight when I saw the intro of this bag on the website! I really like it! But no money
I fell in love with this bag the moment I saw it! It reminds me of a little girl’s dress, with a cute bodice and pleated skirt. And-It feels so good to wear!! It’s the most functional bag I’ve ever had, and it goes with absolutely everything, from day time into the evening. It even withstands those November rains on the West coast!!
I think I’m in LOVE.
I’m trying to buy this bag for my girl friend. But its all SOLD OUT.. can anyone help me locate this bag?
Is it really impossible to buy this bag during christmas season?
How about the weight of the bag ? Isnt it heavy ?
I just got mine (Trevi PM) last Friday night it is just gorgeous!!!!
Jellibeans - It is very light… but then again, that is relative. However, since it is made of coated egyptian cotton, it is definitely lighter than a similar handbag in leather.
Thank u for the info
Just bought the PM one in Paris two days ago. I absolutely LOVE it! :))))
I’m still deciding whether if i should buy the PM or the GM. I personally love big bags, can anyone tell me if GM is too big? Is the PM’s handle long enough to be a shoulder bag?
i have to agree that Damier is my fav line and i absolutely loooooove my Trevi PM!! it just looks down-right cool when you’ve got it on your arm and the shoulder strap just hangs over. And the pleat work is amazing!
my last LV purchases were GM versions: Hampstead and Saleya ’cause i HAVE to rock BIG bags. but with the Trevi, the PM was just right. the is shoulder strap is long enough, and it’s great when travelling and running after kids. but you really want to carry the Trevi on your arm with the shoulder strap dropped.
OMG!! I totally like it. When i first saw the bag, i was like… Gotta have it - NOW! So I told my boyfriend, and he said that i would buy it for me. But then i have to wait, to he got paid for his job, so i asked my mom. shit, she said that it was a beautiful back, but even though think it through. WHEN CAN I GET IT? I’m so in love with it, you know…
I can tell you that the PM, is not TOO big, but big, in my opininon. Its like you can went somewhere for a weekend with the big one,
I was in the store, and i had to choose the small one, since i was looking for something small.. To have my wallet and so in it.
I have to mention that im not so glad for their wallets. I mostly like gucci when it comes to that.
