I personally think that if you want the gold hardware to stand out, then the ceramic effect one will be the best. The combination of rich red with pale gold hardware provides a beautiful contrast.

Ceramic effect deerskin will not be "dated". It's just a finish on the leather, and this is not the first time Dior has released this. A year ago, the Diorama bags also featured ceramic-effect deerskin (but with silver hardware).

If I had to choose one, it would be the ceramic effect one. It sparkles a lot thanks to the finish.
Thank you for always being so responsive and explaining your choice! You give great feedback. The " red" is the one I'm instinctively drawn to, as it is different from everything I currently own. I think that shade will be very versatile, dress up or down easily, and complement the colors I wear very well. In pictures, it is stunning! I am planning to purchase it once it arrives in the boutique here. It should be here sometime in early June, I think.
 
I like both. Most important for me is the gold hardware, as it is definitely more flattering on me with my skin tone, jewelry, colors I wear. I think Nude with gold hardware is beautiful!

My only Dior bags are the medium Lady Dior in black lambskin with gold hardware and the large Promenade in metallic Gold with gold hardware. My next Dior is going to be a Diorama. Honestly, if I could get both, I would because both are perfect choices for me.

My LV SC PM is Galet with Gold hardware. It's not " nude", but it's a light colored neutral .

In Fall/ Winter I wear Ivory, camel, rust, olive, navy, warm grey, denim.

Do you think the ceramic- effect will be " dated" at some point? If you had to choose One...?


I love the ceramic effect in the ox blood color because it the color keeps it very timeless and the finish has a Hellenistic quality to it... Think antique pottery ;)

I agree with your assessment. I'm choosing the " red". It's just too nice of a " red" to pass up for me. I likely wouldn't find another so versatile ( or beautiful!) and would regret not getting it. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!

despite I loveee the nude/ghw, I think this oxblood combo is tdf!! it think it will be more special, more resistant to dirt/scratches than the other one. (I can already spot some faint marks on the interior of my pouch as it is lined with lambskin, not grained)
would love to see more pics when u get the red! [emoji4]

Thank you. They are both beautiful! The " red" is amazing, but the the Nude with Pale Gold Hardware is so elegant and nude looks fabulous with gold.
 
I just received this picture from my SA. It's a Medium Diorama with Gold Hardware. I've been waiting for her to get the new " red" ceramic , which is more of an Oxblood shade, with gold hardware, but now I'm torn. Suggestions?
Get the ceramics effect red. It's much prettier. You find nude in any bags. Dior always does nude colours on their LD, pouchette, other bags. Although it's grained calf but it will still have a slightest chance from colour transferring from your clothes if you one day you happened to forget you are carrying a light coloured bag and putting on a dark coloured outfit. If you are deciding between a white and nude, I would say nude. But how can you pass the gorgeous red ceramic against a nude?:smile1:
I can't figure out how to load a video otherwise I will make you drool even more on the red oxblood diorama.:graucho:

I've just upload some videos on my IG, Smudleybear, check it out and I'm sure you can get a better idea which you love more.

All excellent points! I want my first Diorama to be special, and the Oxblood is perfect in every way! I agree with your reasoning Nude bags , like black bags, are not too hard to find vs " the perfect shade of red". Decision made. Thanks for always being so very helpful!
