My Holy Grail bag, just purchased the GM preloved in excellent condition! But I plan to use the luggage strap from the DE Keepall 45, because it’s a longer strap. Nice video Autumn!
Have you tried a hair dryer for the pleats? I did that on an LV canvas bag to remove a crease. It worked pretty well. I'm wondering if you could warm up the canvas and soften it just enough to reshape the pleat.
That's a good idea. I saw a video recently from #docluxury where he steamed some lux pieces. I'll try the hair dryer. The canvas on this bag is very stiff so maybe that will help. Thanks!
Always to nice to hear your feedback. I've watched a few reviews on this bag and it seems like everyone who owns this bag has a love hate relationship with it and looks like it's slowly loosing it's shape over time. I agree with you not selling it just yet especially because you've wanted it for so long and it was your dream bag for a while. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! I don't understand this bag. If it can get out of shape it seems like I could get it back into shape. Then I see some for sale that look perfect! It's frustrating. But I still think she's beautiful.
Ok I am finally getting to watch this review video of the GM size and for myself I think I made the right choice getting the smaller PM size only because I already have a huge bag like the GM my Givenchy Antigona is a large heavy bag but a great work bag I think had the put textile lining in this particular style the bag would be a lot lighter in both sizes but I will say I love the microfiber interior ,so do you still feel like you want to keep that bag in your collection even though it’s getting such minimal usage?
I've gone back and forth so many times about whether I want to keep this bag. I've gone as far as taking photos of it and contacting Fashionphile but I wasn't happy with the price they offered. I'm in a "keep it" stage right now. I do use the strap and this it the best LV bag I have that I can use as a camera bag, too. I just feel like I'd regret it if I sold it because it was my dream LV and my first LV.
Autumn Beckman I did the same with my Chanel Jumbo I contacted fashionphile and the price they gave actually wasn’t bad I know they go lower for Louis Vuitton I wound up selling for $500 more than they offered by selling it independently within the chanel group I have had great luck within the Facebook addicted groups and I am definitely good at authenticating LV there’s no good replica in the world that could fool me I know the hot stamping and the bags I buy are all bags I have seen And felt chanel I’m not 💯 percent sure I’m as good at except with their classics and I knew my Drawstring bag was real because it came from a close friend but I get why everyone is scared to buy and sell you just have to be really smart about it and I am sure to protect myself and my buyer in every single way I’ve never had a problem
Hi there ! Gorgeous bag. I just bought a pre loved one recently myself. Question .. does the piping on the side (right under the shoulder strap attachments supposed ) have like an overlapping/ underlapping style? I just realized Mine does & now I'm questioning my bag
I bought the Trevi Pm preloved abt a month ago. It s a really vintage piece ( made in 1997). Except for some scratches on the zipper pull , the bag s body , pleats & shape are really in super form. Mine had a D ring. There is no tarnish on the gold hardware. I must say LV craftsmanship is top-notch.
Hi, love your videos💕 Your trevi bag was made in 2007 right? I’ve recently just bought one from 2007. I was wondering if your hardware is still intact. My hardware looks as though it’s been coated with gold and silver is coming through! Is this normal for this year? Thanx 💖
I don't have my inventory list with me but 2007 sounds about right. It's my understanding that LV hardware was solid brass for a long time but for a while now it's been a silver metal coated in brass. Not sure when they changed to that but unfortunately the wear you're describing is normal for LV now, yes.
The strap does not extend long enough to wear crossbody but you could add a crossbody strap. Original retail on this bag was $2,500 and I paid around half of that. I think they're going for a little less these days.
I bought my Trevi PM 4 years ago and I’m just using it now. I thought of selling it for a while but since nobody is interested and I don’t have a work bag at the moment, so it made me kinda think why I bought it in the first place. It’s the perfect work bag.

Such a lovely bag! I own the Trevi PM. It's a tad small, but I love it. Great video. xoxo

Did you try the bar dryer? I’m thinking of buying this bag and would like to know if that works in case the pleats become mid-shaped. 😊
It is gorgeous ! Would it be possible to reshape the back with a very low heat of a hair dryer? To make pliable to reshape it?
To ease the wrinkle, u can steam it but make sure u have a thin towel in between the steamer and the bah
Some people store their bigger bags on their sides so the weight at the top doesn’t push down on the bag like yours has. Might be worth trying.
I've tried that and it seemed to squash the pleats on the back. :(

I think I know what you mean but I want to be sure. Could you send me a photo at autumnbeckman@gmail.com?
I have this bag in the Trevi Pm , I couldn't see the D ring inside yours
There's not a D ring in mine.

Hello. I can ask you about which site you bought your preloved trevi gm?? Thank you!! 😉

Hi do u mind me asking how much did u pay for it? Can u extend the strap to have the bag as crossbody?
The strap does not extend long enough to wear crossbody but you could add a crossbody strap. Original retail on this bag was $2,500 and I paid around half of that. I think they're going for a little less these days.
Lovely content! Keep it up!
I saw you had comment to steam that pleat. Try, it works.
I missed this video. I only just found it accidentally!

I hope you're enjoying it. :)
If u have the trevi I'm interested in buying it off you
