I saw the same bag (through the online availability) but didn’t have an SA looking for me - I tried to call the store as soon as they opened but Client Services left a message and no one called me back. Glad you got it!!

I am on a wait list at my local store but have a SA out east doing that first come first served thing for me but it wasn’t in Montreal!

I returned mine earlier. I looked at the bag a few times and it didn't make my heart flutter. I'm glad I did, I have too many regrets with bags nowadays.

I have regrets with my older bags but I still just keep them as collections . The vanity would be used as vanity bag or just as my collection if I don’t use it as purse anymore in the future :smile:

Amazing, the Vanity PM was/is orderable today so the team lead at my local LV ordered one for me! Don’t know when it’ll get here but glad that I’ll finally get a chance to see it in person!!

I also saw one on eBay today with date code from the 10th week of 2020 (which I believe just last week) so they were definitely still making them recently...

My Vanity PM was supposed to arrive in store from the warehouse this week but now with all stores in Canada closed, I’ll have to wait until things settle down!

I didn’t want to start a new Vanity PM thread so I thought I’d just resurrect this one with my photos.

first, I want to address the top sag when holding by the top handle - it’s noticeable, but not as bad IRL as I thought. I think it helps that on my bag, the black piping remains straight and flat and doesn’t sag, so it looks better. The bag is really nice when worn by the strap, so even though I’d really wanted to use this as a top handle bag from time to time, realistically I think it’ll be worn on the shoulder most of the time.

I was worried about the handle stretching the top canvas over time. I think it could still happen if the bag is loaded heavily and carried by top handle but there is actually a thicker piece of leather inside reinforcing the handle.

I actually bought a Samorga organizer before I had the bag in my possession. It’s a pretty good fit but I’d like to have the organizer push out the sides a little more.

without an organizer I can fit my mini Pochette inside, along with a Vernis Pochette cles, Zoe wallet, phone, gum, odd tubes of stuff, work ID, mirror and sunglasses on top of everything. The bag feels really dense when packed like this though and isn’t comfortable to carry.

with the organizer I have to take out the mini Pochette. This works better because there’s a bit extra room for some other thing (small Kirigami maybe?) and the bag feels more reasonable weight wise.

The chain is beautiful but too short for crossbody for me. If absolutely necessary it’s doable but looks ridiculous. It’s not very comfy crossbody, the strap digs in a bit and I would prefer to wear on the shoulder. It sits very nicely without sliding off (common problem for me with shoulder bags)

Yay I'm glad you finally got yours. Great review and points on the bag. I agree with your thoughts - even though I haven't had a chance to take mine out. I too got the samorga organizer and I"m glad I did because the bag/canvas is quite soft so could sag for sure.
