Classic Louis Vuitton bags can be perfect investment pieces if you’re looking to buy a designer handbag. A classic Louis Vuitton bag, like the Speedy is iconic and timeless. Whether you prefer the signature Louis Vuitton monogram patterns or a plain leather finish is completely up to you, with many of the classic Louis Vuitton bags available in a range of finishes. Check out a few classic Louis Vuitton bags below.
1 Speedy
As far as classic Louis Vuitton bags go the Speedy is easily the most recognizable. It has a rectangular shape with two small top handles and according to the Louis Vuitton website, can cost anywhere between $765 and $2890 depending on size and style. Notoriously popular in the LV monogram or checkerboard pattern, this bag is also available in plain finishes if you prefer something a little more discreet.
2 Alma
The Alma is another classic style of Louis Vuitton bag. It has a rectangular base with a curved top that tapers in. This bag is available in a range of sizes and usually costs anywhere between $1250 and $2730. It looks especially chic in a modern patent leather finish.
3 Neverfull
The Neverfull is a simple and understated tote style bag. It’s a versatile bag that can be folded in at the sides to create a different shape and is also completely reversible! According to the brand’s website, these classic Louis Vuitton bags can cost upwards of $800.
4 Keepall
The Louis Vuitton brand originally started out in luggage and the Keepall is a classic example. It has a large, duffel design so you can ‘keep all’ your things in it (get it?). It’s a popular choice with the rich and famous and can cost between $1600 and $1990 depending on the size.
5 Noé
The Noé is one of the long-standing classic Louis Vuitton bags. It was first released in the 1930s and has a tall rectangular shape with a drawstring top. Initially designed for transporting champagne (oh, the luxury of it all!) it now makes one hell of a stylish handbag.

The Pont-Neuf has an elegant, understated design and typically comes in a plain black or white leather finish. It has all the makings of a classic Louis Vuitton bag, bar any of the signature Damier or LV monogram prints. It’s perfect for working an understated, chic look. Prices range between $2150 and $3050.
8 SC Bag
Ok, so it’s one of the more recent releases, but I’d say that the Louis Vuitton SC bag is a modern classic. In collaboration with current muse Sofia Coppola (hence the ‘SC’), the bag gives the classic Louis Vuitton silhouette a more modern appeal. Prices start at $3950 for smaller styles and $4650 for larger styles.
Many of these classic Louis Vuitton bags are timeless, especially when purchased in the iconic LV monogram, Damier pattern, or plain leather styles.
