Dior Names New Creative Director, Releases Two New Versions of the Popular Diorama Bag

Last week was a busy one for Dior. Not only did the brand debut its Fall 2016 couture collection in Paris, but it named Maria Grazia Chiuri its seventh-ever (and first female!) creative director, poaching half of Valentino’s uber-successful design duo. Slightly less high-profile than those two events, though still interesting to a certain audience (namely, us) nonetheless, were two new structures of the Diorama Bag that the brand made available for the first time: the Diorama Club Bag and Diorama Satchel.

The bags are both easily identifiable as part of the Diorama line, with some pieces from each line featuring the bag’s signature raised cannage pattern and all fastened with the Diorama’s badge closure. The Diorama Club is smaller and more streamlined, though, with an oversized contrast border around the central badge, while the satchel slightly adjusts the bag’s proportion to a wider base with a shorter flap and swaps the shoulder strap for a short chain top handle.

Check out images of both bags below and let us know what you think!

really like the top handle option !!!!!

I like that they brought back the old school monogram. Not a fan of the big emblem. It takes up too much real estate of the front of the bag.

SO happy to see Maria was hired for Dior. This is going to be better than Raf’s work at Dior. She’s such a talented woman.

#12 and 14 are beautiful! But the ever-so-slight widening of the bags towards the bottom reminds me of the Gucci Dionysus silhouette. Anyone else? Not saying it’s a bad thing, though; heck, I wouldn’t mind having either or, or both! ^_^

Me encantó esta cartera! He visto una similiar en @bandchandbags Instagram http://www.bandcbags.com

Th satchel reminds me strongly of the Trapeze without the ears, which is a good move as far as I’m concerned. Was part of a minuscule minority of ear-haters in my immediate circle of friends and family.

And really, that’s a divine chain isn’t it?

#14 is soo beautiful! Can’t wait to see what bag Maria will create first.

#7 with blue fur and the crystals(?) wow.

MissDemeanor

They’re a bit preppy looking. Not in my top 10 choices for that money.

That lock is AWFUL

I know. I can’t get over it looking like a koala’s nose.

The smaller emblem is much nicer. I like the lines of the satchel.
Can’t wait to see what Dior’s new CD will come out with
