Default Dior Gaucho Denim/Leather Medium Saddle Bag

Dior Gaucho Denim Leather Medium Saddle Bag

No, I can not get my mind off the Gaucho. I have seen so many of the wonderful people on the forum post their beautiful bags and I still yearn for one. If you are opting for the medium bag, gander at the beautiful Dior Gaucho Denim/Leather Medium Saddle Bag. I love this color combination, and unlike the off-white shade that I want, this bag won't show dirt as easily. This Gaucho is made of denim with calf leather trim alongside lambskin links trim and contrasting topstitching. The chunky antiqued silver metal hardware helps show off the desired look of this bag. There is something about this bag that draws me in; whether it is the medallion and large key dangling from the front, the perfectly placed square pocket under the front flap, the saddle shaped flap pocket, or the chunky silver metal hardware. If you are wanting a Gaucho as bad as me, check out the medium size (which measures 13.5" x 7" x 2.75"). Buy this denim beauty via eLuxury for $1,180.

I haven't been bitten by the Gaucho bug, so I can't say that I really like the bag.

Help please! I bought the medium Gaucho in both the dark red and off white to try with my wardrobe to see which one I prefer - the other will go back for a refund! I still can't decide - I'm in the UK so we don't have fab long summers. I love both colors but want one to go with everything. The red is fab but may look drab in the summer & the white may look too bright for spring??????
Any advice out there..................

Hiya! First post

The denim is my favourite among the lot. I visited Dior yesterday, it's not available in the UK yet, it'll ship in a month or so. I bought the red/bordeaux anyway since it's fab in its own right. Have no regrets so far. It's a good bag IMHO, colour will just be a matter of preference.

id get the red, earth tones are in right now. i know i will wear brown all sumer but add coral accents. Wear whit dresses, jenas, turquise, chocolate,beige, greens, plums, lavenders.. the bag would watch w/ all and w/ the right cut of an outfit would look pleasently summerish.

Thanks - second opinions always help. I had almost decided on the red - the white is so "dirty" that I don't think it will go with white clothes too well.

If anyone is considering this bag, I would get it through eLux right away!!
At Dior, many SAs from all over are claiming that the denim is the same price as the leather -1395 for medium- I was told this in Canada- where I live- and from the store in NYC. I questioned it at both places because I thought it odd that a denim bag was the same price as a all leather one. Many other members have recieved the same information from Dior boutiques. I don't know if they have made a mistake but it seems weird to me.
I am waiting for the leather, but if eLux shipped to Canada I would be all over this one!!

I like it in white.

Here's a photo of it, being carried by Delphine Arnault.

Does it come in different sizes? Looks like the one she is carrying is HUGE!

I inquired about this bag when last at the Dior store in Boston. I was told that it comes in the Medium & Large ... no Tote.

One of the US Celeb rags (I mean magazines) just had a small article on how White bags are being carried all times of the year. There was a picture of various celebrities carrying various white bags (YSL, Balenciaga, etc.). As much as I like Red, I think I would go with the White ... then again, in the UK with all that rain ... hmmmm.
