Posted on on Mon, 03/02/2009 - 21:20 by I LVOE LV

The largest clutch from the Sofia Coppola and Louis Vuitton Collection, the Slim Monogram can fit all the essentials which makes it ideal for a day use. According to Sofia, Lauren Hutton-a former supermodel-was on her mind when she designed the clutch and as a result the Slim Monogram like Lauren Hutton is an exceptional and timeless beauty.

Slim Monogram is crafted from the iconic Monogram canvas with natural cowhide leather trimmings, and microfiber and grained crossed leather lining. The most distinctive attribute to this clutch is its lock that is made from golden brass and acetate with the Tiger-eye Stone, a gemstone which is said to offer protection during travel and strengthens convictions and confidence. As for storage space, the clutch has two compartments and three credit card slots. The clutch also comes with an oval mirror in its soft sleeve in Monogram canvas and microfiber lining.

Slim Monogram measures 10.4" x 5.9" x 1.1", available at Louis Vuitton for $1,290.

"I had an idea of what I was looking for and couldn't find... I think it must be every woman's fantasy to dream up an ideal bag and shoe. It was great to be able to make exactly what you want."

"For the day bags, I wanted classic colors that could go with everything and you wouldn't get tired of, but weren't black."

"Lauren Hutton is one of my fashion heroines. I had her in mind when we did the Monogram pochette."

"The idea is that the city bag fits all of your things during the day. And that you can keep the clutch inside and slip it out at night. Or you can do what I do, which is leave the day bag at home, with your work behind, and then take the clutch out in the evening."

"For the sandals, I worked with Fabrizio, the shoe expert. While I was speaking, describing what I wanted, he would draw it at the same time. That was cool."

Look out Brits - Lindsay Lohan and Samantha Ronson have landed! And they’re bringing a rather large Louis Vuitton duffle with them. Given Lindsay’s penchant for carrying designer handbags (Miu Miu, Chanel, etc.), something tells me that she’s the owner of that luxe luggage, and Samantha’s just the chivalrous sap who got suckered into lugging it. You can never go wrong with Louis, but I’m eager to see some stars jazz it up with something more unconventional - or at least a Sprouse print or something.
