Louis Vuitton Capucines: A Timeless Icon of Elegance
An ode to Louis Vuitton’s first store, opened in 1854 on Rue Neuve-des-Capucines in Paris, the Capucines exemplifies this area’s historic savoir-faire, in an embodiment of timeless elegance.
The Louis Vuitton Capucines bag stands as a timeless icon of elegance and craftsmanship. First introduced in 2013, it is named after Rue Neuve-des-Capucines, the Paris street where Louis Vuitton opened his first store in 1854. This sophisticated bag seamlessly blends classic structure with contemporary luxury, featuring full-grain Taurillon leather, a semi-rigid silhouette, and the iconic LV initials either covered in leather or gleaming in metal. The Capucines is as functional as it is refined, with a spacious interior, a removable strap for versatility, and a flap that can be worn two ways—inside to display the LV signature, or outside for a minimalist look. Available in a variety of sizes and seasonal shades, the Capucines embodies French savoir-faire and the spirit of modern femininity. It is a favorite among fashion icons and collectors, representing the pinnacle of Louis Vuitton’s commitment to luxury and enduring style.
