Gucci Dionysus canvas print been very popular and honestly I think they’re beautiful but it will never go with what I like to wear.

I saw these new Dionysus all made with pebbled leather in different colors like blue, burgundy and black and even green one I think . They have crystals on the iconic hardware.

Do you think these bags are still relevant and good bag to have ?

I guess what I’m wondering is if you think this style is a good investment or addition to a closet ? In your opinion would they stay relevant . Thank you for your input :))

Love the blue one, especially because of the stones on the hardware.
The burgundy one would just be smashing with burgundy stones on the hardware.
However IMHO this bag has a very strong style, and that will lead to it getting out of fashion. I would not purchase it even at a good price or pre-loved.
A few years ago, the soho line seemed to become a classic too, but it now almost disappeared.
Makes me think that almost every brand tries to make their own classic flap at a more affordable cost.
Just my opinion, though

I absolutely think this is a classic. It’s been around a recent amount of time and if you look at this seasons guccis runaway shows the models still wear this bag (I haven’t seen them with a Marmont for example - tho I could be wrong) For what is worth I think the bag is beautiful and super chic and useful. If you like it, buy it!

You might be right . The only problem is Chanel classic bag is very boring to me . It’s basically a black bag with tiny channel logo. It’s kinda bag you can pull out when your 90 and still will be safe. Only because it’s so boring.

When I looked at the Gucci bag . It has the sparkles , pebbled leather , edgy hardware. It makes me excited how it will look with my outfits. Gucci in general to me feels like very in the moment , young , not overthinking designs . Also has this vintage feel because of the shapes they choose.

Chanel flap bags on the other hand is same quilting , same hardware, same style . Yes you can get different variations but it’s the same bag over and over again .

Totally relevant and still on the runway for SS20. If you like it no need to hesitate

Just go with the all leather version in a colour that suits you best.

I saw the show and the look book and they have handheld version now and cross body looks like that’s bigger. I can only see two bags front and center and that’s the horsebit design and dionysus. I just loved how fast it was . It wasn’t boring at all.

I like the hand-held/shoulder ones too and would suit me but most people only use the shoulder chain. I have tried the original Med (quite large at 30cm) and the Small (more rectangle and the ones you like). I'm pretty sure the runway bags are similar in width but may be a bit deeper.

I’d call them cool rather than hot.
The Dionysus bag has a presence so I think the simpler the better, but the crystal clasp ones are gorgeous and the leather is exceptionally hard wearing.
My oldest Dionysus - medium size black suede with original hardware - still looks fabulous and current and gets admiring comments every time I wear it. I love it more now than I did when it first came home.
