Louis Vuitton has served up some great bags as of late. Rapid recall of a few of our favorites: TheDora, The Garance, and The Petite Malle. PurseBop even speculates that the Louis Vuitton Capucinescould reach classic status.
Today, we excitedly introduce a new LV bag with some promising potential: The Louis Vuitton City Steamer
History and Specs
The Louis Vuitton City Steamer first appeared in the Cruise 2016 runway show and received lots of hype immediately after its debut. The City Steamer finally arrived in stores at the beginning of this month, and the buzz still hasn’t stopped. What’s all this talk about? The LV City Steamer just looks a little too familiar…some may say, very Birkin-esque. Before you can decide whether you’re yay or nay on the Birkin similarities, let’s take a closer look…
The City Steamer is a modernized version of LV’s original steamer luggage bag. The bag is very structured and roomy, which make it very functional for carrying travel essentials and other business documents. Adding to the travel element of City Steamer, the bag features an engraved padlock in the center and an embossed luggage tag. Other functional features include a double zip enclosure and a detachable shoulder strap. The City Steamer comes in 3 different sizes, PM, MM, and GM.
Creative director, Nicolas Ghesquiere seemed to carefully design the City Steamer with a clear purpose in mind. Overall, the City Steamer is very sleek, minimalistic, and appropriately functional. The exterior details that are present don’t detract from the bag’s silhouette. The handles have the same attachments as the Dora bag and the gold padlock dangles elegantly from the middle. With various sizes and leather options, the LV City Steamer can hold its own in daytime or evening occasions.

City Steamer vs. Birkin
From first glance, the City Steamer may scream “Birkin”especially if you focus on the gold padlock. However, as far as the silhouette itself, if the City Steamer does mimic the Birkin, it only does so innocuously. The bag’s rectangular shape is fairly common as seen by the structured bag trend this year. It’s hard to decide whether we should have a grievance with the gold padlock or not. Instead of asking “Does the City Steamer look too much like the Birkin?”, a better question to ask is: “Is the City Steamer special enough for us?”

If you've been awaiting the arrival of the Louis Vuitton City Steamer Bag, whichdebuted on the brand's Cruise 2016 runway in Palm Springs, then your Monday just got a whole lot better. The elegant, modern tote has arrived on Vuitton's website in three sizes and a plethora of colors.
The Birkin-esque bag fills a gap in the strong handbag lineup that Nicolas Ghesquiere has created so far for the rebounding brand: LV needed a statement-making satchel to fit in as the line's marquee bag, and ideally, it would be in leather (to appeal to those who are wary of monograms in general and of Louis Vuitton's in particular) and sit right in the middle of the dressy-to-casual spectrum. The City Steamer does all of that; I can easily imagine it being carried with both a sharp suit and slouchy boyfriend jeans.
The bag's three sizes are all very useable, with the PM coming in at 10.2" across, the MM at 12.2" and the GM at 13.4". None of them are too big or too small, although it's not hard to imagine the line getting a micro BB version in the next season or two. The City Steamer looks good at all of its sizes; the bag isn't over-designer or over-detailed, which means it shrinks down well.
Perhaps my only qualm about the City Steamer is that it does look rather like a Birkin, but the more I look at it, the more I think that's simply a function of the central gold-tone lock; if that's taken away, the gusset structure and closures don't remind me of the Birkin at all, and it has a strap and luggage tag instead of the Birkin's clochette. That likely won't satisfy everyone, but it's enough for me.
