Pieces like this Louis Vuitton Getaway are why the line is considered a baseline: the structured backpack silhouette built for the contemporary travel wardrobe. Worked in Monogram Eclipse - Vuitton's black-and-grey reading of the house monogram, reserved for the men's line, the finish is part of the piece's argument for itself. Its 16 by 11 by 8 inch footprint gives it a true day-bag presence without forcing the issue. Many enthusiasts point to it as the line that taught the rest of the category what restraint really looks like. These silhouettes have a way of remaining the most worn pieces in a wardrobe a decade after acquisition. From the Maison de Beaubigonne specialist team, where every lot is read closely before it is presented.
