Concentric rows of crocheted, 100% natural raffia give this design its distinctive circular form. Created for Louis Vuitton’s LV By The Pool collection, the Around Me MM carries that intricate handwork through its integrated double handles, making texture central to the silhouette.
Tan cowhide gussets give the rounded body depth and a defined side profile, contrasting smooth leather with the dimensional raffia surface. A detachable leather name tag introduces the LV emblem, while the curved rear pocket follows the shape of the bag.
Made in France, it closes with a magnetic clasp and offers two ways to carry: by hand through the crocheted handles or over the shoulder using the removable, adjustable leather strap. Its sculptural shape and natural fibers bring a relaxed character to the house’s leather craftsmanship.
Collector's Insight:
The circular construction and integrated raffia handles make this a distinctive expression of Louis Vuitton’s approach to summer accessories, with the handwork carrying as much visual weight as the house signature.
Resale Insight:
Reference M25243 identifies the Natural and Tan raffia version. Comparisons should focus on this specific model, material and size to distinguish it from other LV By The Pool designs.
