Vintage Louis Vuitton Monogram Monogram Vernis Keepall Bandoulière 55 c. 1998 Yellow

Monogram-embossed patent canvas in a saturated yellow wraps this Louis Vuitton Keepall Bandoulière 55, its surface catching and scattering light with each shift in angle. Natural leather trim anchors the double handles and removable shoulder strap, while gold-tone hardware—including dual zipper pulls—frames the top closure. The silhouette holds its shape through the structured ends, with the house logo pattern pressed deep into the glossy finish.

Inside, beige fabric lining reveals a generous main compartment, fitted with one zippered pocket and two slip pockets for organisation. The original Louis Vuitton box accompanies the bag. Condition is very good overall, with light surface wear and creasing to the patent exterior; the interior lining shows damaged material.

The date code BA1918 places this piece in 1998, crafted in France at the introduction of the Monogram Monogram Vernis line under Marc Jacobs. This era saw the debut of patent-finished monogram canvas—first glimpsed in advertising and on runways that same year—delivering a new, high-gloss take on the house’s storied travel designs.
