A popular Louis Vuitton 3 piece bag that you might've seen on the celebrities' shoulder is called Multi-Pochette.
Introduced on September 27, 2019, just as the trend for small purses was arising, it quickly became the next big thing.
It's interesting that the actual Multi-pochette set is comprised of the three existing (and a bit reinvented) Louis Vuitton items: a Pochette, a Mini Pochette and a zipped coin purse attached to a thick fabric strap. Additionally, this set also contains a small chain strap.

Louis Vuitton Multi Pochette Price History
Here's how price of this French brand's 3 piece bag was changing since the purse was first introduced. The prices are in the US dollars.
| 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | |
| Louis Vuitton Monogram Canvas Multi Pochette | $1,640 | $1,860 | $2,360 | $2,570 |
When the purse was first released in 2019, Multi Pochette was listed on the official website for $1,550. Nevertheless, it seems that one week later the sales analysts have received a confirmation of high demand and the price was raised by $90.
Louis Vuitton stroke its fans with major price increases in 2021 and 2022, due to COVID pandemic.
As a result, in four years, the price of Multi Pochette Accessoires 3 piece bag has gone up by impressive 40%. That's just off the charts!
Is Louis Vuitton Multi Pochette Cheaper in Europe?
As COVID19 restrictions are gradually lifted, we are gradually considering purchasing a nice handbag during a vacation in Europe again. Let's see if it makes sense.
US retail price of the Louis Vuitton Multi Pochette 3 piece bag is $2,570. In addition, you are paying sales tax so the final price will likely be at least plus 5,09% to retail (average sales tax in the US).
$2,570 + 5 % ($130,8) = $2,700
In Europe the same Multi-Pochette Accessoires purse is 1,900 €. The price is the same in all European Union. As a tourist, you are entitled to shopping tax free and you can receive a VAT refund. While VAT refunds differ from one country to another, you can definitely expect to return at least 10% of the retail price (it'll likely be a little higher, like 12-13% but I like to manage expectations in the right way).
1,900€ - 190€ = 1710 €
The price difference is already impressive but let's go even further and convert this amount to USD.
1710 * 1.07 = $1,829
With an exchange rate of 1.07, it seems that by purchasing in Europe you can save about $900 on a new Multi Pochette. That being said, you also need to be very lucky as this purse is extremely hard to come by.
