The Goyard Muse bag, officially known as the Muse Vanity Case, is a charming nod to the golden age of travel and luxury beauty. Drawing inspiration from classic cosmetic and jewelry trunks, this structured, boxy silhouette has become a coveted modern accessory. It perfectly marries the heritage of Goyard’s trunk-making history with the demand for chic, everyday carry.

Initially launched in a single, practical size, the Muse family has recently expanded to include two smaller, playful versions. Here is your complete guide to the Goyard Muse Vanity Case sizes, designed to help you choose the perfect fit for your essentials.


📏 Goyard Muse Vanity Case Size Comparison

The Muse Vanity Case is now available in three main sizes: the original (PM), the Mini, and the ultra-compact Nano. Each version retains the signature features: a sturdy structure, a top leather handle (often called the "Gendarme" handle), and a removable shoulder/crossbody strap for versatility.

The dimensions below represent the commonly accepted measurements (Length x Height x Depth).

Size Dimensions (cm) Dimensions (inches) Primary Function
Nano 11 x 9 x 6.5 4.3 x 3.5 x 2.6 Micro-bag, Lipstick, Keys
Mini 16 x 10 x 8 6.3 x 3.9 x 3.1 Essential Phone & Cardholder
PM (Vanity Case) 20 x 15 x 14 7.9 x 5.9 x 5.5 Daily Essentials, Small Tablet

1. Muse Nano Vanity Case

The newest and smallest addition to the line, the Nano is a truly miniaturized version. It embodies the micro-bag trend while retaining the recognizable, structured Goyardine canvas box shape.

  • What Fits: This size is strictly for the minimalist. It can hold a few credit cards, car keys, a small lipstick, and possibly earbuds. It is often carried as a statement piece or used as an organizational pouch inside a larger tote.

  • Best For: Evening events, or when you only need to carry a bare minimum. Its small size makes it utterly charming and very light.

2. Muse Mini Vanity Case

The Mini scales up just enough to become functional for modern necessities, offering a great compromise between the Nano's style and the PM's capacity.

  • What Fits: This size is perfect for your smartphone (including larger models like the iPhone 16 Pro Max, depending on the exact year/model), a cardholder, keys, and a few small cosmetics.

  • Best For: Everyday errands and weekend outings when you need to be hands-free. The removable strap makes it an ideal crossbody or shoulder bag.

3. Muse PM Vanity Case (Original Size)

This is the classic, original size that earned the bag its popularity. It truly lives up to its "vanity case" name, offering ample vertical storage space.

  • What Fits: This size has significant depth, easily accommodating a full-sized wallet, sunglasses in a hard case, a compact camera, and a complete cosmetic pouch. It’s also large enough to hold a small tablet (like an iPad Mini). The interior often includes elastic straps and a removable mirror, echoing its travel beauty kit origins.

  • Best For: A day bag that carries more than just the essentials. Its structured shape keeps contents organized and protected, making it excellent for travel or a busy day that requires a little extra capacity.


💎 Signature Features of the Muse Bag

Every size of the Muse Vanity Case shares core design elements that reflect its trunk-making heritage:

  • Boxy Structure: The rigid form, inspired by Goyard's classic hard-sided trunks, ensures the bag holds its shape beautifully.

  • Top Handle: The iconic small leather handle allows for elegant hand carry.

  • Removable Strap: All sizes feature a detachable and adjustable strap, providing the highly sought-after option to wear the bag crossbody or on the shoulder.

  • Interior Details: The interior often features the traditional Yellow Water-Repellent Cotton Lining, adding a cheerful and functional touch to the bag's core purpose as a secure container for valuables.
