I want to buy a white crossbody that can be worn during summer - mainly for weddings and formal outings but also for a casual walk if I like to. I’m torn between the Gucci Dionysus super mini and the Valentino Rockstud crossbody. The Dionysus looks so chic but I’m worried it won’t hold my phone (iPhone 11 pro) whereas the Valentino is much more spacious but looks more casual to me. I also thought about the Marmont mini camera bag but I already have it in black so wanted something new. Any thoughts?

I prefer the Dionysus but then I don't know my V so well.
I think it would help to get more opinions if you gave people a picture of both bags.

Prefer the Dionysus. Maybe get the size up so it fits more 
just about my phone and a card wallet as I’ve seen on YT videos but I think i’ll go for it. I specifically want to wear it for summer wedding season and I think it’s the best choice for that
I don’t know how big the iPhone 11 Pro is but my old Plus size phone didn’t fit in the Dionysius Supermini.
Still voting for the Dionysus Supermini though! What about the Dionysius WOC if you need a bit more space?

The WOC design/shape is quite different though and I think looses its cuteness with the flap and rectangle structured shape of the super mini.
I think i’ll go for it everyone seems to agree! Thanks for the suggestions!

Actually I would kinda agree lol. I like the WOC, but there's something that's kept me from pulling the trigger
The Dionysus mini is VERY small. Fits less than a super mini marmont. Also where are you finding the marmont mini camera? I’ve been looking for it!I have also added the YSL small wallet, so here’s a picture of all candidates if anyone wants to offer a suggestion!
I actually got the super mini Dionysus and it looks great! I bought the marmont mini camera from Selfridges but last year, not sure what stock they have these days
How do you like your Dionysus super mini so far? I am hoping to add a micro bag to my collection, I used to have the Dionysus WOC which I have sold but for some reasons this super mini is making my heart fluttered, it looks so cute
My 2 cents. I have the small Dionysus and struggle with putting items in despite the fact that I carry very little. The leather is rigid and unforgiving so keep that in mind.

So I ended up getting the Dionysus super mini, as well as the Valentino crossbody and I already had the YSL WOC and Gucci Marmont mini in other colors so I can offer my advice:
in terms of space I would rate from smallest to largest: Gucci Dionysus SM < YSL WOC < Gucci Marmont mini < Valentino Rockstud.
The leather of the Dionysus SM is indeed quite stiff and the bag is very structured. I enjoyed wearing it on few occasions mainly weddings and outings but only because it looked super cute. I couldn’t fit my iPhone (XR and then the 13 Pro) so I had to hold it in hand and the bag would fit car keys, lipstick and card holder. I would say it is a strictly occasion and evening bag but I don’t regret purchasing because it’s so pretty and because of recent price increases.
However I would say that for a micro bag you can carry as a clutch or crossbody the YSL WOC is a better choice as it holds just enough. The other two are big enough for everyday and casual wear.
Hope this helps!
