If you’re not done mourning Raf Simson’ decision to leave Dior (I’m not, still, and I might never be), take heart: there’s still a little opportunity to nab one of the handbags created during the designer’s reign. The brand’s summer 2016 bags have arrived in boutiques, and they’re the last accessories Simons oversaw before departing.
The most notable additions to the lineup are the new Diorever Bag, which we photographed for you earlier this month; it comes in three sizes and plenty of leathers and colors, including some stunning crocodile options. The bag feels like it’s positioned as Dior’s Birkin, which is a popular thing for brands to do right now.
In other trend-related news,there are also several very pretty Lady Dior Bags with embellished shoulder straps, the execution of which is the prettiest and most ladylike I’ve seen. There are also plenty of new Dioramas and other Lady Diors, in case your personal taste leads you elsewhere.
OUCH! So beautiful they hurt!
Oh dear this is trouble! First time ever I love every single one of them!!! AND THE COLORS!!!
Love them all!
Bad news, ladies. The adorable little double chain black Lady bag in photo 43 isn’t available in the US. I contacted my SA as soon as I saw it on the website two weeks ago. There are usually several pieces a season that make it to the website but weren’t purchased for the U.S. market.
Stunning collection.
42 is just amazing. the whole collection is really
Generally speaking I like them all even if I would not buy them. They are too much lady-like (except for the little ones) and you have to be very young to wear them. But they are all really nice to look at.
Love numbers 18 (my fav, what a gorgeous color!), 43 (beautiful bag and that chain is pretty enough to wear as a necklace) and 53. Anyone know the prices of those? Not a fan of silver bags in general, unless it’s a darkened silver. Bags as shiny as aluminum foil just don’t do it for me.
Doesn’t it feel like the new ones try to imitate the Birkin shape like so many other luxury brands now? I mean the ones like 38…
1-4 is my most favorite. Everything is so beautiful I wish I could grow a money tree.
I seriously want at least 4 bags from these slides.
Every time a designer designs a semi structured tote, it’s like a purseblog custom for somebody to comment that it’s copying the Birkin. This needs to end, the Birkin is NOT the original tote bag, and it’s literally just a rectangle double handlebag with a flap.
so beautiful and understated
love the embellished straps
