Dauphine
By Arielle · Catalogued July 2026
The Dauphine is Louis Vuitton's structured flap bag, updated by Nicolas Ghesquiere for the Cruise 2019 collection from an archival house name. It has a boxy body mixing Monogram and Damier canvas with smooth leather, a graphic LV metal clasp on the front, and a reversible leather-and-chain strap. It comes in sizes from Mini to MM and became one of LV's core modern leather-trimmed bags.
