Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What are the key features and how does the bag close? A: This piece is crafted in natural hand‑woven wicker with a blue and beige 'Christian Dior Paris' embroidered band and gold‑finish hardware. Inside is a blue Dior Oblique jacquard pouch with a drawstring closure and a zipped pocket, plus double top handles and a detachable, adjustable embroidered shoulder strap.
Q: Can I wear it cross‑body as well as on the shoulder? A: Yes. The wide embroidered shoulder strap is detachable and adjustable so you can wear the bag by hand, on the shoulder or cross‑body. Fit will vary by height; please refer to the Measurements for strap details.
Q: What typically fits inside? A: The structured basket comfortably holds daily essentials such as a long wallet, smartphone, keys, sunglasses case and a small cosmetics pouch. A slim 500 ml bottle or compact camera can fit, but avoid overfilling to protect the wicker and drawstring pouch. For exact capacity, please check the Measurements provided on this page.
Q: Is wicker sturdy enough for everyday use? A: Hand‑woven wicker is resilient but, like all natural fibres, benefits from mindful care. Avoid overloading, keep it away from prolonged humidity and direct sunlight, and store it loosely stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help it retain shape.
Q: What should I do if it gets wet or I’m caught in light rain? A: Gently blot moisture with a soft, dry cloth and allow the bag to air‑dry naturally away from heat sources. Do not use a hairdryer or place it near a radiator. Once dry, gently reshape and store in a well‑ventilated area.
Q: How do I clean the Dior Oblique jacquard pouch? A: For light surface dust, use a clean, dry microfibre cloth and dab rather than rub. Avoid soaking the fabric or using harsh chemicals; for stains, consider a professional specialist clean.
Q: Can I swap the strap for other Dior straps? A: The bag’s strap uses Dior snap‑hook attachments, so it can be interchanged with compatible Dior shoulder straps to personalise length and look. Always check hardware compatibility before use.
Q: What is included with this item? A: Everything included is listed under the product information on this page: box, dust bag, authenticity card, brand booklet and the detachable shoulder strap.
Q: Where is this piece made? A: It is crafted in Italy.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously inspected by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and production markings. We stand behind the authenticity of every piece we sell and can share additional photos or details on request.
