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 typically fits inside the Christian Dior Diorissimo Shoulder Bag? A: Most Diorissimo shoulder bags comfortably hold daily essentials: a smartphone (including larger Pro/Max models, cases depending), compact wallet or cardholder, keys, a small cosmetics pouch, and slim sunglasses in a soft sleeve. A5 notebooks usually fit; full A4 folders, large water bottles, or bulky pouches are often a squeeze. Please compare your items with the Measurements on this page or ask us for a tailored fit check for this exact piece.
Q: Will it fit a tablet or laptop? A: Compact tablets often fit; full‑size tablets may be snug depending on the exact model and case. Laptops generally do not fit in shoulder bags of this style. For certainty, compare your device dimensions with the Measurements listed or ask us to test the fit against this bag.
Q: Is the strap adjustable and can I wear it crossbody? A: Many Diorissimo shoulder bags have a fixed shoulder strap, while some vintage models feature a few buckle holes for light adjustment. They are primarily designed for shoulder carry; crossbody wear depends on the strap drop and your height. We’ll list the strap/handle drop under Measurements—if anything is missing, just ask and we’ll measure it for you.
Q: How secure is the closure and what pockets does it have? A: Diorissimo shoulder bags commonly feature a zip‑top or flap closure with interior slip/zip pockets for small valuables. Layout and closure type vary by production era—please review our photos and description for the exact configuration of this piece.
Q: What does “Diorissimo” mean and what materials are used? A: In vintage contexts, “Diorissimo” often refers to Dior’s signature monogram (also known as the Oblique pattern) woven in jacquard canvas, typically paired with leather trim and textile or leather lining. Dior also released a later “Diorissimo” leather tote line—distinct from these monogram shoulder bags. Our listing specifies the exact materials and hardware for this item.
Q: How should I care for Diorissimo jacquard canvas and leather trim? A: Keep the bag away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight, and avoid colour transfer from dark denim. Gently brush the jacquard with a soft, dry cloth; spot clean very lightly with a barely damp cloth if needed (test first). Condition smooth leather trim sparingly with a neutral product suitable for luxury leather. Store the bag upright, lightly stuffed, in a breathable dust bag, with hardware protected from rubbing.
Q: Is the Diorissimo Shoulder Bag still produced? A: Many of the classic Diorissimo monogram shoulder bags are discontinued. Availability today is mainly through the pre‑loved market, making specialists like A Retro Tale ideal for finding specific sizes, colours and layouts.
Q: Where are the brand markings and codes located? A: Authentic Dior bags typically feature a “Christian Dior” heat‑stamp and “Made in [country]” inside, with a serial number on the reverse of the interior leather tag or along an interior seam, depending on era. Placement and format vary—contact us if you’d like close‑up photos and help dating this specific piece.
Q: Where is it made? A: Dior bags are commonly produced in Italy, Spain and France depending on the model and year. Our listing states the origin for this specific item; the interior stamp will reflect the country of manufacture.
Q: What accessories are included and how do you authenticate? A: Any included items (e.g., dust bag, box, care cards) are listed under “Accessories.” If something isn’t mentioned there, it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm. Every item at A Retro Tale undergoes rigorous, multi‑point authentication by our in‑house experts, assessing materials, stitching, hardware, stamps and serial details.
