Since its launch in 2023, the Voyou mixed the visual language of a traditional handbag with a biker attitude in a slouchy, V-shaped hobo that channels both Left Bank sophistication and cool nonchalance. Now, a Nano version is here as a scaled-down alternative, ideal for versatile lifestyles.

Designed in two frame shapes, one that closely reinterprets the original (the 1.0), and a carbon fibre model with sleek silver LV-engraved hinges and damier-patterned metal strips across its topside (the 3.0), the new Millionaires will be available in-store and online from August 8th.
