I recently moved and in the process put most of my belongings (in boxes of course) into my garage. Today I went downstairs to retrieve my handbags and found mold on both my Coach bag (on the outside) and my Loui V. bag (on the inside) I am soo upset .. I mean these are expensive purses and I don't have many of them. Anyone know how I should go about removing the mold from the leather on my bags without ruining them?? Please HELP!

First brush off the leather items somewhere out of doors, where the spores won't scatter though the house. Then sponge them lightly with a mild soap and water solution. Let them air dry.
If bits of mildew remain, sponge the items lightly with rubbing alcohol, then again with water, and let dry.
Mildew grows in damp, airless situations, so try to keep your leather goods tightly sealed in dry storage spaces.
BEST OF LUCK!!

i dont have a good reason for removing the mold. but if you just try so what if you ruin the purse, you cant use them if there moldy anyways. just try something that you think will work. go to the store and look for a cleaner that helps remove mold. ask at the customer service desk. might as well try something.

Being it to a repair shop pronto! If you have money for designer purses then repair shop cost shouldn't bother you too much.
