I'd get the calfskin version. As much as I love the velvet version, the calfskin version will not need to be brushed to avoid showing any disturbances in its texture.

Thank you so much for your advice.
I will be going into the store tomorrow to get it. However I wont be able to get the bag right away as they will have to send it for repair. The lining on the inside is a little dirty, there was some scuffing/ discoloration on the bottom and the one part of the glazing on the strap is fading off. They said repair will take about 4-6 weeks.
Usually i would wait to get a new piece, but that was the last one in the company. They also don’t have anything else in size small and grained calfskin except for black and rose poudre.
I wish i would have bought this bag a couple years ago, but never too late i guess since i still manage to find it in a pink color.

The color honestly is a little bit too pale for my liking. I would have prefer blush pink or even powder pink. But since this bag will be discontinued, there’s not much choice for me to choose from.
I am however happy that my SA at least has this rose poudre in calfskin. She also has a black calfskin, the silver one and black and nude studded lambskin.

I would choose the rose poudre. The color is sweet. And I would choose leather than velvet.
Every time i see the velvet one, my heart still skips a beat. But i know i will be happier with the calfskin since I don’t have to worry too much unlike the velvet.
I want to carry the bag and enjoy it without babying it too much.

As well you should! I'm excited for you to get it. It will probably be even better than before once all the touch ups are done!
Yes. I went to 2 boutiques in Las Vegas and was told by the sales associate. They may still have some in store but in limited colors. Just whatever that is left over in their store.
So is the Diorama confirmed to be being phased out/discontinued??
Thank you for the confirmation! Wow. I already was not a big fan of the direction Maria is taking the brand and this is really a disappointment. The Diorama is elegant, understated, unique, and classic. A shame to discontinue it in what I'm assuming is an attempt to push the Saddle and Montaigne
Yes, it’s such a shame. The diorama IMO is very classy and elegant.
I’ve always wanted a diorama but didnt purchase it. Im glad I managed to find one.
The diorama is so much lighter than my chanel boy in medium size.

Wow! [emoji33] This is rather unexpected...I thought the Diorama would for sure become a classic style for Dior. I still love mine, I’m glad I picked it up when I had the chance!
Wow, I almost forgot that I wanted to reveal my Diorama Clutch!
So here she comes:
First when I had just unpacked her on Christmas Eve and second when she „moved in“ to my collection in better lighting. I'm in love.
I have already worn her a few times, and am really impressed by how easy I can dress her up or down.

Oh no! I've been lusting over a Diorama so much. I'm finally going to Europe this week and I was thinking of trying to grab one in Munich while I'm there.
You may still be able to find one, but not many selections. It will just be whatever they have left. If you don’t see it on display, try asking the sales associate if they have anything in the back. Good luck!
