- Is the Ellipse PM still made?
- No. Louis Vuitton discontinued the Ellipse line, so it is sold mainly through resale and vintage sellers. Check date codes and hardware carefully before buying.
- How much does the Ellipse PM hold?
- Enough for a phone, a small wallet, keys and a lipstick. It will not take a full-size wallet, a tablet or a water bottle comfortably.
- Does it have a shoulder strap?
- The standard Ellipse PM comes with two short rolled handles for hand or forearm carry. Some owners add a third-party strap, but the bag was not designed with one.
- How does it compare with the Speedy 25?
- The Speedy 25 is larger, has a zip top and can be carried on the shoulder with its included strap. The Ellipse PM is smaller, open-topped and more of a hand-carry bag.
- Is the Monogram canvas real leather?
- No. The body is coated canvas; the handles and trim are leather. The canvas resists water and wipes clean, while the leather trim needs care.
- What should I check on a used one?
- Look at the handle bases for cracking, the trim for heavy darkening, the interior for stains, and the date code and hardware stamps for authenticity.
- Where is the Louis Vuitton Monogram Ellipse PM Handbag cheapest?
- At Designer Revival, for $1,020.00, as of our latest check.
