Is it possible to find a handbag that has its essence similar to the boy bags of Chanel? And that too in a sophisticated and lady-like brand like Dior? No! This idea is not all crazy or far-fetched for brand loyal. Since it has gone mainstream, the Diorama bags of Dior set you to a whole new level of ready to wear style, all in an edgy design that’s hard to look for. So if you are not convinced with that extra feminine outlook of other Dior bags, than this one is meant to squeeze into your wardrobe.

Being called the first boyish shoulder flap in the fashion house of Dior was a once-in-hundred-years thing for Diorama bag since their debut in Mid-March with the Spring 2015 collection. Raf Simons and his creative team filled the space for a masculine accent bag, simultaneously welcoming those fashionistas who were obsessed with something like boy bags. With its crest shape lock, large chain and boxy silhouette, the Diorama handbag is a marvellous experience for stepping out of one’s comfort zone, and especially if you are done with the usual signature quilting of Chanel, the cannage stitching of Dior bags is indeed something truly refreshing.

The Design

The Diorama handbags, with their unique geometrical texture, exclusive leather shoulder strap, boxy silhouette, cannage stitched pattern and long metallic chains, have gone mainstream. The chic crossbody bag has an adjustable leather strap option. Best part? It’s extremely flexible, if you are short heighted than without worrying, just pass the buck to this strap, there are five holes with adjustable belt pattern. The long chain is beautiful with part leather part chain pattern and the belt too has cannage signature stitching like the rest of it’s exterior. Toss the chain in your palm and you would realize that it’s much lighter, in comparison to Chanel bags, all because it’s hollow pattern.

Without it’s signature a brand is never a whole unit, likewise the so-approachable Diorama bags can never be complete without the signature Dior cannage stitching, quilted texture and the crest shaped lock and the boyish chains. If you want to open your little leather goody than just press the lock and it’s opened. Though many have an opinion that this lock is a tad bit difficult to open, but we can’t ignore the fact that a bed of roses comes with thorns.
Initial line-up of this design includes the grained as well as smooth leathers, python, crocodile skins, embellishments and also some classy printed versions too.

The Interior

Being pretty rational isn’t a sin, even if we’re talking about Dior’s handbags. The interior should be appropriate for your go-to-look, your necessities should feel at home inside your Diorama, and it’s a big-big deal, so let’s be honest. This bag opens to a regal leather interior with some very organized compartments to store your day-to-day belongings.

There’s a back zipper compartment when you can simply stash your cash, and the beloved Christian Dior in Paris is also embossed on top of it, in the interior of the flap. The slip pocket inside, just on the front would be apt to put your I-phone inside it and never to worry about it. And when we are talking about the middle compartment, than it’s huge; you can securely store your Chanel wallet, card holder, makeup and what not! For you, it’s all about making a statement, so if your ultimate style depends on the bag you carry than the Diorama are the bags to crave.
