Do you remember the tale of Cinderella? Well, she wished for the best of everything for the royal ball - a silver crown, the famous glass slippers, a star studded pink gown and of course an evening bag. This is not true of Cinderella only. It is true of every girl next door- fond of designer clothes, shoes and bags. Her wardrobe may be packed with hundreds of handbags, but still wistfully looking for a Louis Vuitton purse. It is a top brand that offers designer bags. This French company has been manufacturing luggage since 19th century. In those days they produced trunks for the globe trekkers. However, in the middle of the 20th century, Louis Vuitton entered the market with a line of stylish purses and handbags.
The commitment to quality has stayed intact for all these years. All Louis Vuitton purses are hand made. The brand has stores all around the world that see to the company's standards of excellence and pricing. These bags are not made in centers of mass production and sold in specialist outlets.
Louis Vuitton purses are not only strong and durable but they also have water proof and fire proof qualities. The bags are not made of common leather or other material. They are made of canvas and with that another material PVC is added to make them water proof. However, since the middle of the last century, suppler material is being used to make bags, purses and wallets. Cowhide leather is used to make the trims and handles of the bags.
The most distinguishing feature of a Louis Vuitton purse is the monogrammed "LV" logo that was patented in 1896. The bags were usually made of brown canvas, but off late they have brought out colorful bags as well. Some bags also have oriental inspired quatrefoils and flowers.
Louis Vuitton purses are not manufactured in masses. There are a few of one particular style. So to ensure that the customers get at least a piece, the stores do not sell more than one to each customer. These purses have been associated with glamour and royalty. The Hollywood has an age-old bond with these purses. Audrey Hepburn carried a Louis Vuitton bag in the film Charade. These bags have been seen time and again in films, marketing campaigns of famous fashion houses.
But there are lots of fake bags that are being sold as Luis Vuitton ones. Now how to spot them? There are many ways to find the difference. You can make out by types and pricing. If you are quite familiar with Louis Vuitton bags, you will spot them by their smell. Always see the lining. The Louis Vuitton bags have a elastic lining. Also, the inner cloths of these bags are made of canvas. The inner cloth has wide grains and veins. If the veins are not clear enough, the bag could be a fake one.
