Thank you for this thread. I enjoyed reading and viewing every single picture. Am hoping to get my second Roseau soon but am not sure which style. The turquoise is calling me but the black looks timeless and practical.

If anyone has a small Roseau, please share what you can put in it. Thanks in advance. :-)

OMG I love this thread! Thank you, Cosmo! The dark green Croco...is it from last fall? It’s calling my name bigtime...may have to try to hunt it down secondhand. I have loved Roseau forever. It was the line that first caught my attention, way back in the late 90’s when it only came in a few colors.

Yes that dark green Roseau haunts me too!!! It was from last fall but as I recall U.S. Longchamp did not offer it; was available in Europe etc.

I have 3 Roseaus -
1) Light blue patent handheld circa 2005,
2) Camel with shoulder length straps circa 2006 and
3) Gunmetal handheld circa 2009.
Below pics are sourced online.

Unfortunately, 1) turned yellow and 2) had bubbling/peeling issues. I know they are "vintage" but they were used only a handful of times, stored in their dustbags and always inside my closet. For both bags, Longchamp said they couldn't do anything. It's a shame because I adore the size/shape/weight. Just a word of caution for those looking for these bags... 2 out of 3 of my bags had what I consider defects and Longchamp refused to acknowledge the issues.

So I took matters into my own hands and did some DIY - dyed the light blue to black.

Currently working on the camel one with peeling issues. If anyone is interested, I can post an update when I finish dyeing it.

Again, I really love the bags, I just hate the problems they come with.

By the way, Louis Vuitton just launched a Millefeuille bag that looks very similar in shape to the Roseau!
