Don't need it.

Have just been to Paris for a week, with just a backpack (included in the price), managed just fine. If you don't pack enough clothes, you can just get them washed pretty much anywhere.

The cost of doing laundry, both in money and time (particularly in a foreign and unfamiliar country), isn't really worth the cost of bringing a proper suitcase.

Saying that though, if you're happy travelling light, more power to you. I like to bring the kitchen sink with me, but that's just me.
