Louis Vuitton continues to expand their online store and have announced the introduction of the Louis Vuitton Mon Monogram service. The service will allow you to customize your Louis Vuitton bag, ending up with over 200 million possible combinations on your bag of choice. The selection of bags include the iconic Speedy, historic Keepall travel bag, or the Pegase 55 wheeled cabin case.
Once you choose your item you can pick up to three initials and vertical or diagonal stripes. There are 17 color options to choose from. Once you have entered your selection the site will simulate the design for you to see what the finished product will look like.
Another brand known for customizing items like this is Goyard. Having a design house allow you to customize a signature bag from their line will ensure that your bag will stand out compared to others. I love the idea of personalizing a travel bag like the Keepall and Pegase. While I would not check a Louis Vuitton bag under a plane, I would certainly carry it on or take it in the car for weekend trips.
Pietro Beccari, Louis Vuitton Senior Vice-President comments:
“We are delighted to announce the launch of Mon Monogram on www.louisvuitton.com. For more than 150 years, this company has united tradition and innovation, and there is no better example than this initiative, which brings one of Louis Vuitton’s historic services – personalization – into the digital era. It is another great reason to explore www.louisvuitton.com.”

Don’t tempt me. I repeat. Don’t tempt me.

Today the key-word is egocentrism. People want to be the center of attention, they want to see and what could be better than customize a bag, maybe an LV, not everyone can afford it. The idea, however I really like, because the fashion houses are increasingly coming into contact with the consumer.

I completely agree!
I’m intrigued
Though I do not like monogram handbags in general I think this is a great idea. And it looks cute yet elegant.
I’ve been tempted for years, and having this online is just going to make me fixate even more on my next LV. Argh!
(NB for a cheaper personalisation fix, having your initials stamped onto the leather of any LV piece, including wallets, is actually free. The little gold initials on my Damier Compact Zippe wallet make me smile on a daily basis!)
I got a personlize speedy 30 last year.
So cool…….
Tempt to get another one.
I think it is a great idea. I don’t think its egocentric at all. People have been putting their initials on linens, towels, pillows, sheets, bags, and shirts throughout history. I think it is fun.
Can we add to our old bags? Or do we have to buy new ones….very tempted
People on Etsy do it
I love the idea and already have mine, it arrived last weekend, speedy 30 with marron and dark green stripe
I absolutly adore it and don’t regret it for one moment. Very elegant yet understated!!
L.A.M.
Look at Me
No you cannot add to an existing one because they paint it prior to constructing the bag/ luggage… at least that’s what the SA told me here in Toronto. Also note that this it not available to all style… just the speedy, keep all, and some of the luggages.
Love them all!!!!! A must have 🙂
Cool, these look really nice.
Is it me? Or am I just a stick in the mud? But I don’t really like them.
Glad to say No It’s not just not you. 🙂 I do not like them either. The stripe does not add anything to the bag, it just looks odd and out of place. Not cute.
Chic has gone out the window with these bags.
Note my reply above….
I wish the monogram could be applied to an older bag. My tried and true Keepall would love a striped facelift!
I really like this feature…I have been to the site and played with adding my initials in different colors. I wouldn’t want this on all my bags That would be awful! But for one, and one special one at that, it is a nice difference.
I couldn’t agree more. I love the added color & monogram on the speedy 30. If your into the style 1 piece added to your bag collection is perfect. I wouldn’t get a bag just to impress other people, I would only get a bag that I enjoy and makes me feel stylish, fun and confident.
I think its cool because fakes can’t duplicate the style!
Yes, I need this to distinguish my bag from all of the counterfeits floating around.
I think its a cute idea. A little bit of colour can be fun and would make a great gift.

I’ve just ordered speedy 35 with pink and orange.
WOOOO so excited~
God they are gorgeous! So tempted…
I like it, but I would just put the stripes on one. While just fine for someone else, I feel too conspicuous having my initials so ‘out there’ for all to see. If one feels comfortable about it, I don’t think it is at all pretentious or tacky. It’s just not for me.
Can someone tell me how much will the personalisation cost?
$970 for speedy 30. it is NOT the same price as the regular speedy 30. it’s over $200 more for the personalization
The sa told me 30% more.
It says it is free if you get it done at the LV store!
Guess that makes it better!
Who was first? Egg or hen? LV or Goyard?????? shame shame shame – although it looks nice
Louis Vuitton with Mon Monogram, it’s so 90’s.
In my opinion, too egocentric and kitsch
i very like the lv handbags, if you need to review other many latest in fashion and high quality and beautiful Louis Vuitton handbags, thanks
I love the vibrant colors in contrast to the bag. Not a fan of monograms myself but this has given me an idea to paint on my LV bag! Since it’s made out of canvas anyway….. I think I’ll test it out on the strap first to see. I’ve fallen out of love with anything and everything LV so this will make me excited to wear it again and not see yet another woman with the same handbag LOL.
llove love love them…x
and again louis finally got it late but… they got it ! i mean goyard had been doing it for years and with megalomania arround the globe it just works
I love the idea..I want it badly enough to not pay the mortgage for 30 days…or maybe I should wait..but for what…oh louis i adore thee..
My name is more than 3 !!!!
Y-I-N-G
OMG!!!!
Wait, can I get stripes on products other than the three on the site, or is it only those three that are shown on “mon monogram” even though I can get the same thing on a trunk, for instance?
finally!!! my very own personalized LV (fb)
i always wanted a personalised LV or Goyard… hmm… maybe this will be what i get for my birthday this year..?? hehe! (fb)
*sigh* if only I had an unlimited budget (fb)
I saw a girl at school with a personalized LV bag and it looked really bad. My friend got her wallet with her initials inside and they screwed it up. (fb)
speedy bag being personlized gives you more connection to your hard earned money plus mon monograming your bag authenticates it, i dont think fake delears would personlize the bags that they are selling.. (fb)
D: to cynthia’s comment
and agree to elyse’s comment
I love it, but how many characters can fit?
i wish my whole name could fit!
i love this and i was thinking the exact same thing! goyard!
I want a goyard as well, but seems like they dont sell it online anywhere i know 🙁
sadly
but i love it! them both!
(fb)
wish i could afford to buy all the bags on here i love 😛
here i am (fb)
I ve just decided to have one, unfortunately, have to wait cuz the LV shop here have to take the order to Paris to paint the bag
Is this service available around the world? Including Manila, Philippines?
Pros: Easier not to have people think your bag is Fake
Con: Goyard has been doing it for years.
My opinion: These are the pieces that people who cant afford Goyard would buy.
I don’t think that’s necessarily true. Did it ever occur to you that perhaps some people actually prefer LV as a brand to Goyard? It’s personal preference, but I think it’s moderately rude of you to insinuate that LV is the poor man’s Goyard.. Your attitude is what’s tacky, in my opinion. 🙂
Does anyone know an artist who can paint this onto my older LV pieces?
Traver Dodorye can contact him [email protected]

A dkny bag is a good
choice. If you have ever seen dkny

like to get a dkny

creativity. There is another creative brand, barbour. Barbour
is a good brand which is famous for barbour

wonder what is a barbour
jacket and which barbour jacket to
buy. You will know it after you go to a barbour shop.

Just ordered the Bandouliere with black and mustard vertical stripe! You don’t see much using the black so I’m excited to see the finished product!!
My first LV is a Delightful GM that i used mainly as my stash everything in bag, including diapers and wipes and baby stuff. Now around this time i haven’t got a Speedy yet and decided my first Speedy will be different so i chose to do the mon monogram. That purse was my Dad’s last Christmas gift for me before he passed away so i had his initial, my mom’s and mine painted on it, i used the bleu marine and ivoire color and it was gorgeous!!!
that sounds awesome! what a wonderful memory of your father
