Yes, they do. I got a medium Loulou for about $1750. And belts, and wallets, and sunglasses. They do sales on Fendi, Chloe, GOlden Goose.
They sell all brand-new authentic items. They start their next sale a few days before Black Friday (the last week of November). Over the weeks, sale prices continue to drop, though popular items will sell out fast. YSL items usually start at 10-15% off but closer to Christmas and even into January items that haven’t sold will go up to 30-50% off. Last year I got an Alexander McQueen scarf 30% off and some Adidas sneakers 60% off from them. Can’t wait for the sale to start!
Hello! I was wondering if anyone has noticed their loulou bag becoming flat especially the flap part of the bag? I didn’t use my loulou small but I did store it in an area that had weight on top of it so it might’ve been the reason the shape was altered. Love the look but worried it would look strange.
Sitting something on top of it will definitely affect the shape. I had mine in a chair in my bedroom and my daughter came and sat on it and had been sitting on it for quite some time. It was warped and misshapen but I was able to shape it back.
Hello, LouLou lovers/experts! I would love to hear from you if you have thoughts/opinions on my predicament: I purchased a small beige LouLou with gold hardware from RueLaLa at a discounted price (my first-ever luxury handbag!). I just received the bag tonight and am unnerved by the fact that the strap drop is completely off. It's supposed to be approx. 22" as a crossbody strap (56cm according to the YSL website), whereas the bag I received has a crossbody strap length of 26.4" (67cm). A difference of almost 5 inches seems pretty significant, the kind of thing a quality control person would catch in a luxury bag. (I checked, and RueLaLa's own product description for the bag I bought says the strap drop is 22", though it says that the "actual" measurements may vary slightly.)
The bag otherwise looks OK to me (as a luxury bag novice), though if I'm being nitpicky I would say that the top foldover flap may not be 100% centered (so that there's a *very* slight asymmetry if you compare the left side of the bag to the right side of the bag).
On the one hand, I understand that sometimes 'imperfect' versions of bags can end up at the designer's own outlet stores or even on the gray market. If, for instance, I saw this bag at an actual YSL outlet store, I would be unfazed. But since I bought it from a third party, should I assume the bag I've received is a fake?
It's a "final sale" item but I've already contacted RueLaLa to request a full refund and to let them know that I'll initiate a chargeback/dispute with my credit card company (Chase Sapphire) if they don't cooperate. But should I go ahead and pay for an authentication service to back up my claim? If so, which US-based service would you recommend?
Thank you VERY much!

Sooo I've decided to list my Medium Loulou black with SH for sale! I was so happy to get it but for some reason I only wore it 1-2 over the last couple years. It looked too dressy on me and I was always worried it will loose its shape. Instead I have ordered the Puffer small in black with SH, I think the size shape and puffy quilts are more like me and it will be more carefree. Hoping I won't regret the trade haha!
The puffers are sooooo soft and luxurious. I also think they’re pretty durable for being lambskin as well. I hope you love it.
Hi There!
I am about to finish grad school in December and am really contemplating on getting a small Loulou as a little treat. I tried on the bag in gold hardware and black hardware. At first, I thought I wanted the gold hardware but with careful thinking, I don't need another black bag with a gold chain (I have the Gucci Marmont camera bag, and I think they're too similar). I also fell IN LOVE with how the black with black hardware looked. It suited my style much more than the GHW. The only thing that's drawing me back from fully committing to the Black with BHW is the chipping on the chains. Would anyone like to share their experience regarding the chains and logo please- how it's worn over time, is it truly noticeable, etc. I'd also love to hear if anyone has purchased the black on black in more recent years and if they think the chains have been improved upon? Thank you so much!!!

I have the black on black on another style (envelope) and I’ve had it for 3 years. So far no chipping and I’m not even that careful with it!
