I just previewed this bag today. It is SOOOOO structured. There is absolutely nothing "soft" about this bag, maybe just the lambskin. It is a little smaller than the original Soft. While I can easily fit my macbook air into the original, there's no way I can fit it into this Soft. The side compartments are also smaller, but the zippered compartment is bigger in this soft vs. the original. My boutique only had the larger size and the bag retails for $3200 + tax. I wasn't too fond of the style, but after hearing the new price, I most likely will not be getting this bag. Personally, if I really wanted a structured bag, I much rather throw in a few more hundred dollars to get the small Diorissimo (which is a true Dior design vs. a remake of the Chanel Timeless tote).
$3200 - for the large? That seems a bit strange as Dior is usually cheaper in the UK and it is retailing for 2000 GBP here? I agree it is a more structured bag but that it will break in over time giving it the soft effect. I think it was very nice but I too did not *LOVE* it. The small was too small and large too large in my opinion
