1. Louis Vuitton Bag Price 2024 Reference Guide

So far, I have not seen a Louis Vuitton price increase in 2024. For the past five years, I have seen prices go up almost every year, so I think the next one is just around the corner. I have gathered and listed the updated Louis Vuitton bag prices in 2024 for the most popular bags. Louis Vuitton will definitely get more expensive in the future. It’s not only because of the brand name but also because production costs are going up—think of the material and labor costs. Louis Vuitton also needs to keep up with inflation, right?

2. Louis Vuitton Bag Prices Over The Years

<Expand image >

Louis Vuitton bags go up in price slowly but steadily. The price remained quite stable before 2012. It was not until 2013 that the price of Louis Vuitton bags started to increase rapidly – the Speedy Bandouliere 35 Bag went up by more than 20% that year. Between 2013 and 2019, prices continued to surge by an average of 7% per year. I think this is due to inflation as prices of goods have been rising worldwide. But no one could have foreseen what happened in 2020, Louis Vuitton increased prices by 18-30% in a single year, marking the fastest price surge in its history.

In 2020, the Bandouliere 35 bag went from $1,660 to $1,960 USD, an 18.1% price increase or $300 USD. It might not seem like much, but the Bandouliere 35 Bag is cheaper because it’s made from Canvas. The Louis Vuitton Capucines PM Bag jumped from $5,600 to $7,450 USD – a 33% price increase, adding $1,850 USD to the new price. The Capucines Bag is made from leather and is therefore more expensive.

Between 2011 and 2024, the prices of Louis Vuitton iconic bags have gone up by almost 76%. I think the trend will continue over the next 10 years. Prices will only increase faster than in previous years because calculated in percentage, it’s easier to double the price if the bag is more expensive. It took 13 years for the Louis Vuitton Speedy Bandouliere 35 Bag to go from $1,115 to $1,960 USD. But it will only take 5-6 years for the same bag to go from $1,960 to $3,000 USD. We think this trend will happen quickly. The Louis Vuitton bag prices in 2024 is the floor, it will only go up higher from here.

For leather bags with high price tags like the Capucines Bag, they will increase much more slowly. As a designer brand, you don’t want the Capucines Bag to go from $7,450 to $13,000 USD too quickly because $13,000 USD is a very competitive price range. There are many alternatives and better investments in $13,000 USD handbags like Chanel or Hermes. However, we do think Louis Vuitton will reach that price point because other designer bags will also increase in price.

Louis Vuitton bags are a good investment because they hold their value well and even increase in price over time. The pre-owned market is full of Louis Vuitton buyers, and you can demand a higher price for your bag if it’s still in good condition. If you want a safe bet, you can buy a classic bag that has been in the Louis Vuitton Collection for a long time like the Speedy, Alma, and Noe Bag to name a few.

I think the cheaper Louis Vuitton bags will increase in price much faster than the expensive ones. This is because it’s easier to do so, and people will still buy them. At the current moment, Canvas Bags are still well-priced. However, we hear rumors that Louis Vuitton wants to limit the availability of Canvas Bags and introduce more leather handbags, which are more expensive options.

Key points:

• Louis Vuitton’s major price increase started in 2013; on average, bag prices went up by 8.4% every year
• In 2020, Louis Vuitton bags surged by 18-30%, which is the highest increase in a single year
• The Speedy Bandouliere 35 Bag price went up by 76% in 13 years and I believe the trend will continue
• The Capucines PM Bag price increase was 45% over 12 years; the expensive handbags will go up more slowly in price, while the cheaper ones will experience faster increases
• Louis Vuitton bags are excellent investments because they hold value and become more expensive over time
• There is high demand for Louis Vuitton Bags in the pre-owned market; you can easily sell them
• Buy the iconic bags if you want to be safe, such as the Speedy, Alma, or Noe Bag
• Canvas Bags might become limited in availability in the future because they are cheaper and have more demand

3. Where is Louis Vuitton Cheaper in Europe?

<Expand image >

In Europe, Louis Vuitton is the cheapest in Greece and Finland. It’s not because of the price, but due to the high tax-refund claim. In both Greece and Finland, you can get 25% sales tax back.

The Louis Vuitton prices in 2024 are the same in almost every country in Europe. It’s because these countries uses the “euro” currency and it make sense to have the same retail prices. But within Europe, each country has different VAT (also known as Value Added Tax). VAT is the same as sales tax and these can be refunded if you’re are a traveler. The higher the VAT, the more money you can get back. The country with the highest VAT is the cheapest place to buy Louis Vuitton Bag.

Greece and Finland has the highest VAT with 25%. Then Italy, Belgium, Spain and the Netherlands come to the 2nd spot with 21 – 22% VAT. France has 20% VAT, which is also not bad.

It’s not recommended to buy Louis Vuitton in the United Kingdom, because it’s very expensive. Also, the tax-refund program has been abolished since 2021, so you can’t claim tax-refund and will have to pay the retail the full retail price.

Switzerland is not on the chart, but I can confidently tell you that the prices are almost the same as in Europe. They have a VAT rate of 8.1%, which is very low compared to other countries. Thus is also expensive to shop Louis Vuitton bag in Switzerland.

I still think Paris and Italy are the best options, despite that Greece has the highest VAT. It’s because Paris and Italy have more stock and choices because there are more boutiques. Louis Vuitton is cheaper in Italy compared to Paris because you can get 1% more tax-refund. But 1% doesn’t make much difference. The most important is that the bag you want is not out of stock. If you are lucky enough to find your bag, just by it.

Key points:

• Greece and Finland are the cheapest places to buy a Louis Vuitton bag, but they have low stock
• Both Italy and France are the best locations for shopping at Louis Vuitton because of the lower prices and high tax-refund opportunities
• Belgium, Spain and the Netherlands has 21 to 22% VAT, they’re the 2nd best places to go
• It’s also expensive to shop in Switzerland compared to other European countries
• The most important objective is to find your favorite bag, if you go to another country, they might not have the bag in stock

4. Where is Louis Vuitton cheapest in Asia?

<Expand image >

The cheapest countries in Asia to buy a Louis Vuitton bag are Japan and Korea. In both countries, you can get a 10% tax refund. Surprisingly, the price in Australia is only slightly higher than in Japan and Korea. India has the highest tax refund.

Louis Vuitton is most expensive in Malaysia; however, you can get a 10% tax refund. Singapore and China come as the 2nd most expensive places in Asia to buy Louis Vuitton. Even though Hong Kong is a tax-free city, the price of $2,136 does not make your wallet happy, the retail price is expensive.

In general, the price ranges between $1,900 and $2,300 USD. The price cut also depends on the VAT of that country. When the price is lower, the discount is less. It only becomes more significant if you’re looking for a more expensive handbag like the Louis Vuitton Capucines Bag. In percentage terms, the discount can be more than $1,000 USD.

Key points:

• Japan and Korea are the cheapest places to buy LV in Asia
• Louis Vuitton in Malaysia is the most expensive in Asia
• Buying Louis Vuitton in Hong Kong is not recommended because the price is high and there is no tax refund
• The more expensive the bag, the higher the tax refund you get

5. Which Louis Vuitton Bag Is Classic?

There are a lot of Classic Bags, but the Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag, Louis Vuitton Alma Bag, and Louis Vuitton Noe Bag are the oldest. These are the brand’s most iconic items and the safest bet if you want to buy for long-term investment.

#1: Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag

Launched in 1930, the Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag is one of the oldest handbags in the fashion world today. Designed to carry by hand, traditionally refined with Canvas, this bag is still incredibly famous.

But you shouldn’t confuse it with the Speedy Bandouliere Bag. The Speedy Bandouliere comes with a shoulder strap, while the original Speedy can only be hand-carried. The Speedy Bandouliere Bag was launched much later, in 2011. It’s the upgraded version of the Speedy Bag. However, both bags are good investments because they’re both popular.

#2: Louis Vuitton Alma Bag

The Louis Vuitton Alma Bag was released in 1934. This bag is almost 90 years old and is one of the iconic bags of the house. You can’t go wrong with the Alma Bag, especially in Canvas or Epi Leather. Both materials are incredibly strong and durable, guaranteed to survive another 100 years. The price has also gone up very fast recently due to the price increases.

#3: Louis Vuitton Noe Bag

Originally created to carry champagne bottles in 1932, the Louis Vuitton Noe Bag is just 2 years younger than the Speedy Bag. This drawstring bag is very useful and can fit a lot of essentials, even a notebook if you pick the GM size. This bag is one of the house’s iconic treasures.
