Personalization has its roots in the art of travel and has always been a distinctive element of Louis Vuitton, since its origins: born as a functional necessity to distinguish one’s luggage, over the decades, it has evolved into a true creative expression.
Some emblematic examples of the timeless tradition of personalization date back over a century: the Steamer bag of 1901, belonging to Gaston-Louis Vuitton, with a bold V graphic on the canvas and the trunk made in 1911 for the couturier Paul Poiret, with the name painted in large letters. Furthermore, already in the 1920s, the Maison offered customers the possibility of creating their own monogram.
In 2008, this iconic service found a new expression with the introduction of Mon Monogram, inviting customers to leave their personal touch on travel accessories. Today, Mon Monogram is renewed and expanded, offering a wider range of models and combinations. Versatile and unisex, products such as travel bags, suitcases, accessories, city bags and small leather goods are custom-made to order and handcrafted by our artisans in France. Customers can choose from new colors, fonts, stripes and patches to personalize men’s and women’s bags, both in the classic Monogram version and, for select items, in the sophisticated Monogram Eclipse.
Models available for customization include the Travel Set, with Keepall, Horizon suitcase and Monogram Trio Poche Toilette, as well as the Christopher backpack, Monogram OnTheGo bag, passport holder and many other accessories.
Just as every journey begins with a blank canvas, the Mon Monogram experience also begins with the choice of an iconic accessory. From there, customers can make it unique by selecting a palette of new colors to apply to the initials and stripes. Alternatively, it is possible to insert the numbers inside vintage-style patches, inspired by the elegance of historical periods such as the Belle Époque and Art Nouveau. These decorative elements can be combined and arranged in different patterns, giving life to creations that fully express individual taste and creativity.
The customization process uses a three-layer digital print, designed to guarantee intense colors, precise details and durability over time. Once the order is completed, production begins immediately and delivery times are optimized to ensure shipment within three weeks, combining craftsmanship and efficiency.
Whether it is a gift for yourself or a special thought for someone, Mon Monogram represents timeless craftsmanship, destined to last a lifetime. A bold line can tell the adventures of a journey; initials can preserve the memory of a loved one. Every detail speaks of identity, emotion and personal stories.
The renewed version of Mon Monogram is just the beginning of an ongoing evolution, destined to be enriched with an ever-widening selection of materials, models and motifs signed Louis Vuitton. A constant invitation to reinvent the art of customization, remaining faithful to the timeless elegance of the Maison.
