They are very different aesthetically. I have two19s, a small in light gray and a medium in beige. I still am lusting over the coussin
Coussin yay or nay?

The Coussin PM was my first bag from LV. I had other SLGs but this one was a treat when it first came out. It was $4450 plus 13% tax in Canada when I got it, which I found was reasonable.
It is now $6050 (36% price increase) for the same bag plus tax, and at that price point I'd rather save a bit more and get a Chanel Boy or 19 (just my opinion of course) or a Lady Dior. When the Coussin first came out, all sizes and colors were constantly sold out. Now every color and size is in stock so it tells you customers aren't buying what LV is selling. They increased the price so rapidly on a new bag that was only a year old.
Ultimately you're the one purchasing and wearing it, so you have to tell yourself if it's worth it for you (or you can buy preloved)

The coussin is gorgeous. I purchased the black mm before the price increases and love the versatility and ease of use of the bag. No flaps or closures to fiddle with, easy in and out access to the things I need in my bag. I sometimes use the chain as a chunky necklace or on other bags. I also found inserts on Etsy made for my coussin and it’s maintained the shape perfectly.
Coussin bb is my choice. The size bb is a perfect stay close to body bag, fits all my essentials. I love it even more when they took out the zipper pull tag (I pulled the trigger right away) picture shows my two lovely lamb skin bags.
Can someone post a pic of the Coussin where all 3 compartments are holding stuff? I have only seen it basically empty, even in action. I am seriously thinking about getting one from TRR, and want to see what it will look like when all 3 compartments are being used.
I’m debating this bag also I’m so upset about how much it increased, is it worth it or should I start looking in to Chanel ?
I just purchased in Paris on vacation, I’ve always lusted it and the price in France is almost 40% off the Us price. Just so you know- they have redesigned it so the zipper tag doesn’t stick out past the bag and the lining is leather. That’s what sold me on it compared to some of the other bags I was looking at. Just make sure you get a new one that has those re designed features! It’s the same price as the prior model
I didn’t know they had changed the design..I have the original styles and the zipper tag always annoyed me a little On my bags.. I’ll have to check out the new design
