I bought my mom her first Dior Lady in Smal (Hazelnut color) for Christmas. It took me forever to find the one that has some shine/luster to it as most of them look more matte/dull. She is slightly concerned with two things and I am unable to assist her because my Lady Mini does not have these "issues." She expressed her concern pertaining to the stitching where the needle penetrated the leather too tightly, leaving tiny tears (it is not too visible but they appear throughout the bag) and will the tears get worse compromising the bag? The second issue is wrinkling of the leather (it does not look too bad) but will it look worse or at risk of color chipping off later in the future due to wrinkling? Would these two concerns bother you?

To me the bag looks totally normal, but I’m not a super picky customer to begin with. The color is gorgeous. Hope your mom will enjoy this beauty for long years to come.
Thank you for your input. It looks normal to me as well (but I am very tolerant of flaws) but I was not sure what to tell her as I did not want to dismiss her feelings about the bag. I told her no bag is perfect. :smile:
 
I got this new lady dior but I'm finding a couple things that are bugging me. This is my first one so I have nothing to compare to.

First thing is that the from the top view, left side corners not aligned, the front piece seems shorter than the back piece. The right side corners is better aligned. When I look at it from the front of the bag, it's not symmetrical as I can see more of the left side piece.

Second thing is that the handle end attached to to ring with the clarms doesn't overlap with the top lip like the other 3 handle ends.

I'm wondering if these are normal? Should I try to exchange for a new one?

Sorry to hijack this post with my own questions but I don't have posting privilege yet..

Thanks.
