Hi guys!

Just wanted to pass on a little intel from Dior for F/W 2016-17 regarding some new bags. I see there's a thread already out for the Dior Lily bag, it will come in exotics, as well as black, rose poudre, and burgundy with black handles. The bag will be VERY SMALL, and feature a removable cross body strap. It measures about 7.5" wide, but has about 4" depth, so this is definitely a "mini" bag.

Also, a new size of the Lady Dior is being released, the small. It's between the mini and the medium size, and will also feature a removable long and wide cross body strap. A fun fact on this one is that there will be no top zipper, it will have sort of a free envelope type of small flap at the top to secure your belongings that will be unattached to anything on the sides, similar to the mini. Dior apparently "listened" to all the complaints about the difficulty of accessing the medium & large bags with the zipper, ppl scratching their hands on the zipper and ppl's rings scratching the leather.

There will be 2 versions. One will be with SHW in navy, red, black and rose poudre. These will all come with the strap that has THREE HOLES in it, where you will be able to choose THREE DIOR PINS to place in there to customize your strap! These could be the badge, or the shield, or the Dior logo, or even your initials. The pins are very cute! The price is $3450.

The second version will have a load of multicolored charms attached to it to give it quite the embellishment! These will come in dark grey, nude, black, navy and red with GHW. The price is $3750.

Release should be mid-October.

I shall purchase, finally, a couple of these as the size is right on, not too big, not too small...

Thanks for the info! Sounds like the Chinese WeChat exclusive that was released this week. Glad that it will be available worldwide.

I just bought the small size in black this morning, though no pins (and I didn't ask). I love it as it's a really convenient size to wear cross body or on shoulder and the thicker strap makes it feel more casual (which I wanted). The size is deceptive as I can fit a full size wallet and sunglasses !

Congratulations! I love this new size of the Lady Dior.

Do you have any pictures to share with us? :smile:

Love your purse! I called my local Dior boutique and was sent pics of the new size which has the pins. Are there 2 different styles of the new size? Said they would be getting them by end of this month or next and would send pictures when one arrived.

I only saw this version in the boutique (plain, no holes for pins, no colorful hanging thing) in this new size, and to be honest I didn't ask about any other colors or styles since I wanted black lambskin w silver hardware and as soon as I saw it on the shelf I had to have it. I had no idea how "new" it was and the SA only mentioned that it wasn't widely available yet - sorry, I wish I had asked more questions!

This bag is already a favorite. Here's a pic with shoulder hang - I'm 5'2".

You look fantastic with it! I am loving the new size. The mini is too small for me, but I could work with this. Not sure how I feel about the wide strap though.
