Saddle bag - trendy Or Classic !?

[CrazyCool01]

Hi All,

I am a Dior fan and adding more Dior bags/RTW to my collection now.
Just wanted your opinion on Saddle bag ! I never liked it in the start but it has grown on me.. what are your thoughts on the relevance of Saddle bag now!?

Do you think it is trendy bag and the hype is over or is it a classic bag here to stay?
Appreciate your help!

Classic .

I would say classic. It has had such a cultural impact on fashion that I believe it had truly become a classic. Probably one of the prettiest, most unique, and creative handbag designs ever in my opinion...

trendy... they already look dated on ig, imo

Trendy. Dior is notorious for discontinuing styles

 

[Roses&Lillies]

Trendy, but also iconic. Also imho depends on your view re John Galliano.

IMHO...a classic! I bought one during the SATC craze in 2001 It was then discontinued only to make a comeback in the last couple years. That's why I never sell my bags/jewelry...you never know!
Circa 2001

I don't believe at this point they will discontinue the saddle.

I believe they will.

I believe it’s trendy because it became a bit of an “it” bag and so fashion will tire of it.

It will be discontinued and then dredged up again in 10-15 years because it’s an iconic Dior design.

trendy right now because it just made a comeback. Wait a couple years it'll go back to classic category

I think it will go back to "throwback" status soon BECAUSE it's more of a fashion item than a functional item. It's difficult to use and awkward, but very fun, no doubt.

Dior styles DO go in and out, which I also hate.

Anything with cannage I think will be classic as it's emblematic of Dior.

Book tote we will see. It's such a basic, functional bag that it might carry on (like the neverfull or onthego).

30 Montaigne, Bobby I think run the highest risk of having no association to the Dior aesthetic in the future. All JMO of course.

I hope they can keep Caro for a while. It’s just an underrated bag.

Agree, best bag they've made since Miss Dior (the tote and flap from way back). BUT I wish they'd make more large...

Agree with others that it’s both trendy and iconic. I disliked it intensely the first time around (I also hated the old LD, and I am not a fan of MGC’s current saddle iteration). I strongly prefer the men’s saddle by kim Jones (without logo hardware and with an adjustable ergonomic seatbelt crossbody strap.
