So......the white is officially available in grained calfskin. Woo hoo! This was my original want, but it was only offered in smooth or microcannage at the time. My SA just got one yesterday, so I decided to go with a great neutral pair of small Dioramas for my travel, and days and evenings out!View attachment 3417681View attachment 3417682

May I know what is the current price of small diorama? Thank you. Because I'm planning to purchase one but want to make sure I have enough. And I can't wait to see your reveal!!!!!

Gorgeous! These two colors are so versatile; so lucky to buy them both! Enjoy!

I love these! Would you mind sharing what they can hold? I have a Large Promenade Pouch. Are they as roomy, or roomier? Thanks! Congrats!

My suggestion is the medium Diorama in black grained calfskin. I think that the medium is the perfect size. It has the perfect proportions (in terms of the size of the lock compared to the rest of the bag), and it will give you just the right amount of room in case you ever need to bring more stuff out.

Have been noticing your advice, I am struggling between grained calfskin & lambskin both in black. What is your advice?

I like the touching feeling on Lambskin, it's so soft, but worried it might get scratches easily :sad:
 
Thank you!!! I'm thinking of small bleu de minuit grained calfskin. But on their website, it's medium size. So I'm not sure if they make small size.
That blue is gorgeous! And those questions of course always require the phone call or visit, because the site of course does not put out everything from the seasons. Actually I did ask many times about the logo fabric velvet combos in the medium sized Diorama (not the large accordion size) that have been on the site for a couple of months, and my SA is telling me they are nowhere, not even showing as produced? So, who knows. I hope you find exactly what you want!

I will I will!! I have a couple of those promenades, aren't they outstanding? Incredibly well designed. Dior puts some thought into functionality, which I love. I picked up a card case in Vegas last week, and OMG, it's the best designed case that holds all of my stuff that I have found ever.

SO, I believe these should be a tad larger than the small Chanel boy. In the bag world, of course, this is the most likely comparison of 2 similar bags. The promenade is nowhere near a WOC as it holds so much more, and the back pocket for a phone is ingenious. I can't imagine the small Diorama holds less than the promenade, since the small Chanel boy holds more than the promenade, but that concave thing might contribute.

I get them Wednesday! I will take some pics of what fits in there??

Yes averagejoe is the expert on dior bags!! You should definitely get his advice!

Having bought the lambskin and exchanged for the grained calf, I definitely recommend the calfskin as it's much more scratch resistant. The lamb feels very luxurious but if you really decide to go for it, I suggest you check the bag's corners thoroughly before purchasing because the display lambskin pieces often have scratches already. A new one for lambskin would be ideal :smile: If it's your first Diorama the grained calf is very durable and looks very nice too.

Thanks for your advice too! I should stop thinking for lamb skin, and it's my first such as expensive bag "for me" :blush: I should take grained calf skin.
Btw, how's your Diorama? You enjoy having it? I need a great push to go for it :panic:
