1. Pochette Accessoires (launched in 1992)

Design features: Minimalist rectangular outline, Monogram canvas material, removable chain shoulder straps, lightweight and compact. Historical significance:

• The victory of pragmatism: Born in the 1990s, it was originally a handbag or a large bag, but later it counterattacked by the trend of "smaller and more expensive" and became an independent single product, reflecting the transformation of luxury goods from "conspicuous consumption" to "low-key and refined".
• Millennium stacking culture: Generation Z mixed it with chains and scarves and transformed it into a crossbody bag, breaking the traditional use scenarios and becoming a representative case of "DIY fashion".
• Second-level market myth: Due to rumors of discontinuation and scarcity, the prices of medieval models soared, confirming the brand myth of LV's "classic and sustainable" one.

2. Multi Pochette Accessoires (launched in 2019)

Design Features: Three-in-one design, including two different sizes of Pochettes (Monogram and reverse Monogram canvas) and a round coin purse with metal chains and nylon shoulder straps. Historical significance:

• Milestone of modular design: Nicolas Ghesquière introduces "deconstructionism" into the bag, and users can freely disassemble and reorganize, echoing the contemporary consumers' demand for personalization and versatility.
• Social media hit: With Instagram-friendly color block design and "one pack and multiple backs" marketing strategy, it has become the global out-of-stock king in 2019-2020, promoting the LV youth strategy.
• Redefine "value": Although the price is higher than ordinary handbags, its concept of "buy one and get three" successfully blurs the boundaries between luxury goods and cost-effectiveness.

3. Coussin handbags (launched in 2021)

Design features: Fluffy "pillow" shape, embossed calfskin material, paired with thick metal chains and removable logo hanger. Historical significance:

• The peak of material experiment: For the first time, the cotton-filled leather is combined with LV traditional hard box technology, subverting the brand's consistent "structured" gene and marking LV embracing the soft street style.
• Metauniverse Fashion Pioneer: In 2022, Coussin became the first LV package to launch an NFT version, and the linkage between virtual and physical design redefines the ownership of luxury goods.
• Gender Flow Expression: Neutral design attracts male KOLs, breaks the gender label of handbags, and reflects the rise of genderless fashion in the post-epidemic era.

4. Vanity Pouch (Cosmetic Bag)

Design features: Cylindrical hard body, top zipper closure, early travel vanity bag, upgraded to a PM/MM size independent handbag in 2020. Historical significance:

• From tools to symbols: Originally functional makeup bags were given the identity of "clutch bags", confirming the trend of "defunctionalization" of luxury goods - the value of the item is defined by the scene, not the original purpose.
• Retro Futurism: The collision between the metallic patent leather version and Monogram presbyterian reflects LV's re-exploration of Archive aesthetics.

Why did "Pouch" become the new classic of LV?

1. Miniature Revolution: In the era when smartphones replaced wallets, small bags were promoted from accessories to identity logos, and LV reshaped the concept of "light luxury travel" through Pouch.
2. Environmental Narrative: Pouch is often made using brand inventory residual materials (such as the 2023 Upcycled series), which is in line with sustainable fashion issues.
3. Cultural Penetration: From Rihanna taking Pochette to Met Gala with her hand, to Blackpink members bringing Coussin, the star effect accelerates the transformation of Pouch from accessories to cultural totems.

Conclusion

Louis Vuitton’s "Pouch" series proves that true luxury is not sticking to tradition, but reinterpreting the classics with innovation.These small bags not only carry the brand's 160-year craft heritage, but also dialogue with the times through design language - whether it is modularity, meta-universe or genderlessness, LV has always stood at the forefront of trends and turned the "small bag" into a "big business".
