Hey, i didnt post those other Dior bags...i think Frostelized should take credit for that.

Vicky, if you want to get one/look at one further, they are available at eluxury.com

Oh how I love Dior saddle bags

But they're over $1000? I know there's different styles for different times of day on the site, does that effect the price? I'm having a hard time finding prices for them.

The evening saddle bags generally are more expensive than the normal saddle bags because they're almost always usually made out of more 'Lux' fabrics, and they're structured frame bags as apposed to the regular saddle bags.

The dimensions of the evening frame saddle bags are about 6.5"x5". A "plain" satin evening saddle bag (picturerd below) retails $830. There are also more intricately detailed limited edition versions that go for upwards of 1300 i believe.

If you're having trouble finding prices, you can always call up your local Dior boutique or call Dior's 1-800 number. Ask, and they will tell you! 1-800-929-DIOR [/b][/quote]
i personally think thats crazy to pay that for such a small bag, its just satin

i would get a cloth "D'trick" which is the same price (about)

p.s. they also have evening "D'trick" bags, i ahve one in peach satin...they are more expensive but have more detail

I love this color

My mom and sister wanted me to get this before, but I was reluctant because it was so plain. Now I adore it.

Frostelized, I love that! The color is great. I've been looking for a blue bag, but haven't found anything that I really liked. I was leaning towards something in Epi leather, but I might do this instead.

Thanks for the pics!

Christian Dior Weekender Bag

This bag was given to someone whilst they attended University. The lady says the bag is an authentic 1980's vintage. I have looked at it carefully, as im not an expert i cant tell whether it is genuine or a good copy.

It does have a few faults to it, but i assumed those came about from wear'n'tear.

Did Christian Dior make these bags for the 80's and is this one genuine?

 

[vintage_princess]

Im not sure if that bag in particular is authentic, but i have definitely seen that oval with the Dior logo on many "vintage" bags

 

[leyla m.]

its an old bag. it could very well be authentic

 

[LadyIllusion]

what about the lable inside the bag and has anyone seen this size?

 

[vintage_princess]

Im not sure about the label inside, but i have seen a huge bag that size that was apparently vintage Dior

 

[Missy44x]

How much is she or he asking? And do they have an auth card? Are they selling any other items?

 

[brian]

The label on the inside looks a little bit iffy to me.
The font is quite off...

Missy44x - I paid 140.00 for the bag, the lady is now a really good friend of mine and she sold it because she wanted to go home to the USA. She was really reluctant to sell, but needed the money. She does sell other things, but not vintage bags, mainly little ornaments and clothing.

Brian - I also thought about the patch surrounding the Dior, because its not centred, but again am not discounting anything, because it has been well used.


Vintage Princess - its good to hear that Dior did make big travel bags, such as this, i wish i knew where to look so that i could see the differences.

 

[Ms. Diorella]

Does anyone know anything about this dior saddle that carrie is carrying? Cause i love it, and was just wondering if theyre was any possibility of getting one...ever, thanks.

i it.
