You’ve likely heard of Louis Vuitton. Everyone has—unless, of course, you’re living under a rock. Louis Vuitton has been a fashion house staple since 1854. That’s a whopping 170 years of fashion for this French brand and its fans. Over those 170 years, the Louis Vuitton brand has put out several luxury goods, from shoes to perfumes and accessories like watches, jewelry, and sunglasses. But their most prized release is their handbags.

The Louis Vuitton Speedy, first launched in 1930, is still iconic and holds its value alongside other iconic Louis Vuitton bags like the Hobo, Bumbag, and Pochette Métis. Then there’s the Neverfull Bag, a newer handbag that has only been around since 2007. Many fashionistas want to get their hands on the Neverfull Bag thanks to its versatility and durability, its spacious interior and the fact that it’s a stylish piece even for the most down-to-earth and casual wearer.

Is your curiosity piqued? We’re about to spill the deets on the history of the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag and why this bag is a must-have for any collection. Let’s dive in!

The History of the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag

If you’re anything like us, you value style above all else. But that doesn’t mean other traits don’t matter. When it comes to handbags, you want something versatile and practical but also durable because you’ll be throwing a lot of stuff in there. Makeup, keys, your wallet, sunglasses, odds and ends—you want to know that your bag is worth the investment. We’re here to tell you the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag absolutely is.

Need proof? The Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag has been around since 2007 and was an immediate hit. Since then, it has only risen in rank as one of the most sought-after designer bags on the market. But let’s backtrack a little and talk about the history of the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag.

As its namesake references, the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag is an expansive tote that can hold a lot of contents without worry. You can pack an entire kitchen sink in there! Well, not really, but we mean it when we say it can hold a lot. The Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag has similarities to the St. Louis tote bag from Goyard, the Sac Marin navy bag and the Sac A Linge. It even goes further back than that, with traces all the way to the wardrobe and steamer trunks. But of all those ancestries, the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag has the most in common with the Sac Plat. Both bear a similar appearance, but the Neverfull definitely fits a more relaxed vibe, whereas the Sac Plat is more professional.

You don’t need to worry—while the Neverfull Bag is still relatively new, it has the same expert craftsmanship as all Louis Vuitton bags before it. Its durability is a promise thanks to its waterproof, tear-proof and scruff-proof materials. Plus, did you know that the Neverfull bag is fully reversible? Now you do! You can change its appearance whenever you like.

Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag Styles

Once the Neverfull bag was released, it soon became Louis Vuitton’s most popular tote bag. Because of that, the Neverfull bag has several variants and styles.

The Neverfull comes in four sizes:

          • BB: 9.4” x 5.5” x 3.5”
          • PM: 11.4” x 8.7” x 5.1”
          • MM: 12.6” x 11.4” x 6.7”
          • GM: 15.6” x 12.8” x 7.9”

There are also plenty of ways to customize the bag and fit your style. You can choose from different materials, colors, and even interiors. There’s the Neverfull MM Monogram bag, made from supple Monogram canvas and natural cowhide. If leather’s not your style, you could always opt for the Rose Denim Monogram Stone Neverfull. If neither of those tickles your stylish fancy, keep browsing. There’s sure to be a Neverfull bag made for you.

Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag Celebrity Tie-Ins

If you’re still not sold on the Neverfull Bag, would it help to know that your favorite celebrities are wearing this tote? Reese Witherspoon, Katie Holmes, Sofia Vergara, and Octavia Spencer have all been spotted sporting the Neverfull Bag, to name a few. Who doesn’t love a good celebrity tie-in?

Plus, if you’re a real fashionista, then you’ll be happy to know that the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag has released limited-edition styles that tie into other fashion designers, such as Takashi Murakami, Yayoi Kusama, Stephen Sprouse, and more.

The Investment and Resale Value of the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag

If all of that isn’t enough to sell you or the Louis Vuitton Neverfull Bag, let’s try something else: the investment and resale value. As you can probably imagine, the Neverfull Bag is a great investment. These bags are durable and timeless, meaning they’ll last you and whoever buys them a lifetime. So, yes, they’re a good investment in that sense. As for the resale value, it sells for around 91% of its retail price. That’s a lot! You won’t be losing money on this bag.
