Is buying a Louis Vuitton worth it?

1 Answer
Is buying a Louis Vuitton worth it?
Many fashion lovers believe that buying a Louis Vuitton is worth it. The Louis Vuitton brand embodies all the attributes of luxury, including craftsmanship, exclusivity and heritage. It boasts one of the most recognizable insignias — the imaginative interlocking of letters and fleurettes — in the fashion world. The LV monogram has appeared on everything from bags and other fashion accessories to alligator-skin champagne cases, from stylish apparel and earrings to teddy bears and airplane models. Today, many collectors love modern and vintage Louis Vuitton shoulder bags, suitcases, original 19th-century trunks, jackets and other pieces due to their quality, visual appeal and the rich heritage of the maison that created them. However, whether or not it’s worth investing in Louis Vuitton is totally subjective! At 1stDibs, we believe in buying what you love. Our shopping experience enables discovery and learning, whether you are a seasoned connoisseur or just beginning your collection. Find Louis Vuitton pieces and other apparel, bags and accessories on 1stDibs.
