I had the same dilemma when I have decided to purchase a favorite. I was lucky enough to look at both DE and Mono in my boutique, and Mono made my heart sing so much more!Question: which print do you prefer for the Favorite MM, mono or damier ébène? I can’t decide. Thank you

Hi. I was stalking the site yesterday and a Favorite MM in DE popped up. I know you are looking for a mono. I however was able to get a mono the last week of October by stalking the site. Why not try calling the toll free number? I know they may say it’s not available but keep trying and ask them to check stores near you. Good luck.Can someone let me know if their SA has a favorite mm in monogram in stock? I have been stalking the website for months and had no luck.
Hi. I originally bought the DE and loved it so much I decided to get it in Mono also. I love them both equally. I however find the mono print in the Favorite is a favoriteQuestion: which print do you prefer for the Favorite MM, mono or damier ébène? I can’t decide. Thank you

So I got a call from my local Louis Vuitton letting me know that they have a Favorite in Monogram which one of their clients didn't want so they called me (although I'm not a regular customer by any means).. So I rushed to the store - wow, what a letdown! The canvas looked so dull/bleak! What happened to it? I remember reading someone else mentioning the same thing. When I turned it down, the young salesperson blurted out - "you are the 3rd person who wanted the Favorite in Monogram and didn't buy this bag upon seeing it, how strange". I looked at the Neverfull in Monogram and the canvas looked quite nice and bright. So not sure if this Favorite was just a one off bag or what..
Your photos look great! I've never seen Favorite DE in person.. my store never has any. Your F in mono looks way better than the one I saw at the store. Way more vibrant canvas.Honestly, this is the same reason why I passed on a Favorite DE the first time I saw it. Then I regretted it and went back hunting for it again. I thought the material was flimsy. But then when you start stuffing it with your items, it looks better.![]()

I found a DE today in the drawer- someone on the W/L declined and the SA forgot there was a W/L and just put it back into inventory. So by being there at the right moment I managed to jump up the list at my store.
Question: do most use this as a shoulder or cross-body? My SA showed me a trick by using the fixed chain to extend the length of the leather strap. It looks nice. I wish LV would provide adjustable straps- I am not heavy and not that tall (5'8") but the strap on the Favorite (without extension) and also on the Boite Chapeau souple look too short and silly crossbody.
I actually decided to return the bag; there were too many deal-breakers about the Favorite in DE for me.I only wear it Crossbody, not sure why buy I don’t like it with the chain strap under the arm ( im the same with the Pochette Accessoires, even though they both fit comfortably). I’m 5ft 7” and use both the Pochette extender and a mautto clip to extend the length. I also like that it’s quicker and easier to remove the strap with a clip rather than lopping it through every time.

Hey, no hate here, it’s a great bag but it’s not perfect and certainly isn’t for everyone! Also there is the issue some people have experienced with creasing and weak magnets. I live in London so I understand the lack of zipper being a problem. Hope you find something that works for you.I actually decided to return the bag; there were too many deal-breakers about the Favorite in DE for me.
1- the magnetic closure (I work downtown LA and am not comfortable with the insecurity)
2- the way the leather part loops around the D ring- the opening the strap feeds through was beginning to split and I know DE leather is not as forgiving vs. vachetta. But in any case, I prefer 2 metal clips and not the bare leather attachment.
My feeling is for that price point, there are better options (don't hate me!). But the good news is someone else got this coveted bag when I returned it. Not interested in mono or DA either.
Hi there! I'm just wondering if there is possibility to find Favorite MM in DE in London. I'm going to London this month and going to stalk for it in every single store in the city...Hey, no hate here, it’s a great bag but it’s not perfect and certainly isn’t for everyone!
