I had a wonderful experience at the Munich Longchamp. The shop is newly renovated to look like a Paris apartment. Shelves not so tall, open from the front windows, and no long sales desk/counter.
The amazing store manager, Markus, shared all that with me. He also said Munich was one of the first stores in Europe to have this renovation done. (When I shopped at the Vienna store 2 wks ago, it was under renovation and they had everything temporarily in the basement) I inquired about the special Munich pretzel bag and he said only 4 places (Paris, Munich, St Tropez & somewhere in Belgium?) got a LE bag done this time. His store received 50 bags and most were sold before they came in. So he called Paris and begged for another run of the bag. Which they did for him! They are expecting them in the store next week.
I purchased one and it will be shipped to my cousin's house in Germany (only way to get this bag!)
Markus was so sweet and gave me this little LC gift. It's a ceramic tile, to put fragrance on, he told me to hang it in my closet. I've also posted a picture of the family photo that inspired the plaid bags! ( I purchased 2 from this line)

Omg, is that Longchamp CEO Jean Cassegrain and his sister Longchamp Creative Director Sophie Delafontaine wearing those cute houndstooth ski outfits in the old family photo??? Sure looks like them, see current pic below. How adorable! Now we know where the inspiration came from for the Alpine chalet theme for the FW22 collection.

The Munich boutique looks beautiful. I have been reading about these ongoing renovations at Longchamp boutiques around the world. As you said, meant to look like a cozy Paris apartment. Lots of mid-century modern vibes and lots of trademark Longchamp green, lol.

So happy to hear that you scored one of the limited edition bags. The pretzel is the perfect choice for the Munich version. What a great souvenir. Please share more pics of all your goodies!

Thanks for sharing MM :) — the store looks amazing!!!! So glad to hear you had a great shopping experience there. And how exciting to hear you scored a pretzel bag and some plaid bags. Looking forward to seeing everything when you get them later. What a wonderful trip you are having my friend :)
 
You got the Munich pretzel bag! Thrilled for you, can't wait to see pictures of it :yahoo:What Markus said matches up with what the manager told me in the Biarritz boutique - very limited run that got lots of (social) media exposure, and was mostly sold out via pre-order.

The renovated store is fabulous; love the abstract wood panelling in the stairway. Enjoy the rest of your holiday!
 
I've been to the Munich store and looking at your pics reminded me of my fabulous experience with the lovely staff there. I bought my Etoiles cuir leather strap there. Wonderful score with the country exclusive travel bag. Thank you for all these lovely pics. :love:
