In case you haven’t heard the news, Louis Vuitton just increased prices again on Feb. 16, 2022. The prices of many handbags and SLGs skyrocketed, including the Neverfull, mini pochette, Couissin and Capucines. LVMH cites increased manufacturing costs and global inflation. But whatever the reason, it’s getting harder and harder to find a LV bag that won’t break your budget.
I used to try to keep my purse purchases below the $1,000 threshold, but these days, it’s very difficult to find a high-end designer bag at that price. So I’m raising my budget to $2,000, which is still (sad to say) quite limiting in some cases. I ordered a Neonoe before the increase to stay under that amount (the bag now costs $2,030).
Here are the best Louis Vuitton bags you can buy under $2,000 (at least until the next increase…)
