Who would have imagined that the Coussin would grow into an entire family comprising belt bags and smaller pochettes, alongside the ones in BB, PM and MM size? Louis Vuitton has certainly amped up its offerings, giving you even more reasons to love the embossed leather bag that’s also puffy and soft.
Available in a wide variety of colours (and finishes too), here are 5 things you have to know about the French luxury house’s next it bag.
01 – All bags in the Coussin range come in monogram-embossed puffy lambskin, except for seasonal editions like the LV Night series which differ slightly with sparkling sequin-embroidered satin. The soft leather (yes, lambskin) gives it a tactile appeal while making it an absolute joy to hold, especially when you squish it between your hands.

02 – The baby of the family would be the Coussin Beltbag (SGD2980), measuring 13 cm wide and 11 cm high, and thus the smallest size available today. Unveiled for Cruise 2022, this handy style comes in two colours (Noir and Orchidée), both paired with dual (one short and chunky while the other is much longer and thinner) gold-tone chains for maximum versatility.
The next size up would be the Pochette Coussin (SGD3550), and you can think of it as the WOC style that measures some 20 cm by 14 cm. Finished with a long chain, you can wear the bag long or short, over the shoulder or even over the hips.
03 – Louis Vuitton also introduced the Coussin BB (from SGD4850) recently, one that comes with a leather strap. A scaled down rendition that measures 21 cm wide and 16 cm high, it is offered in 3 colours (Emeraude, Noir and Orchidée) for the ones in puffy lambskin leather, as well as a seasonal special in silver sequins.
04 – Finally there are the OG sizes in PM (from SGD5490) and MM (from SGD5950), which are popular as well. Regarded as ‘workhorses’, they are suited for those who believe in ‘the bigger the better’.
These roomy styles all come with a triple-compartment interior, measuring 26 cm by 20 cm for the PM size and 34 cm by 24 cm for MM size. You can opt to carry the Coussin via the thick textile strap or sling it over the shoulder via the thick chain for a completely hands-free look. Or just remove all the straps and use it as an oversized clutch.
05 – A permanent style in Louis Vuitton’s leather goods line-up, sitting alongside modern icons like the Capucines and Twist bags, you can start by heading to Louis Vuitton’s Singapore e-comm to do your research first.
Always wanted a perfectly pillowy soft bag for all your daily adventures? This would be it for sure.
