My SA told me not to keep them in boxes? but dust bags yes.
Where/how do you store/collect/display your LVs?

Oh really? Did she say why? I always keep them in their dustbags, but if I have a box, I put them in the box in their dustbag as well.
quiet a bad idea - the leather can’t breathe and will dry out!
Yes she told me its bad to keep them in boxes for both leather and canvas bags.
dust bag is ok. box can trap in moisture and such, with theoretically can lead to mold, mildew, or cracking. Any time I've had to store my bags in boxes for an extended period (storage due to moving) I typically throw in some silica gel packets. Not sure if that even does anything, though. Otherwise I avoid keeping my bags in the box.
I used to display all my bags, however, I recently started just storing them on a shelf in my closet in their dustbags. Takes up less space, plus I don't have to worry about fading or uneven patina. I also like that it is more discrete, since you can never be too careful these days. I keep old boxes and packaging in plastic bins in the attic just in case I ever decided to sell something down the line. This has helped me cut back on clutter so there is room for MORE goodies 
I know this is an old thread but I am always so proud how clean my cabinets are on cleaning day (which is about every 3 months 
) I have sold several of my bags lately and gotten a few new ones, so colorful ones too! I love my YK shelf! I just ordered the Spell on You YK Flowers bottle to add to that shelf and it will finish that one off. As you can tell I am absolutely addicted to LV perfumes.

I have similar. It’s a wooden curio glass cabinet with sliding glass mechanism. Mine has lighting too but i dont turn it on coz i dont want to discolor my bags from being exposed to light.
I love the mini pochette metis , it’s so cute. And the Alma bag.
I spot a pair of Yayoi Kusama sunglasses.
