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 this Christian Dior leather tote? A: With approximate measurements of 30 × 22 × 12 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, compact wallet, keys, sunglasses, a small cosmetics pouch and a slim notebook. Capacity always depends on how you pack, so please use the measurements on this page as your guide.
Q: Can it be carried on the shoulder? A: Yes. This is a shoulder-style tote with dual shoulder straps, and the listed strap measurement is 40 cm. Fit can vary slightly depending on what you are wearing and how full the bag is.
Q: Will it fit a laptop or A4 documents? A: It is better for everyday essentials than larger work items. Most laptops and full-size A4 folders are likely to be too large for a bag measuring 30 cm wide and 22 cm high, although a small tablet or slim notebook may fit.
Q: Does it close securely? A: Yes. The bag has a top zip closure, which helps keep the main compartment secure, plus an exterior front flap pocket for smaller items you want close to hand.
Q: What is the interior like? A: The bag has a red fabric lining. The internal condition is rated Very Good, with light traces of use noted.
Q: What condition is the bag in overall? A: The overall condition is Very Good. Externally, there is visible scuffing on the corners and edges, along with slight scratching to the leather. The hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: What is included with this item? A: No additional items are listed in the product information for this piece. If an authenticity card, box, dust bag or other extra is not mentioned there, it should not be assumed to be included.
Q: Is a serial number listed for this bag? A: No serial number is listed in the available product details for this item. With vintage Dior bags, identification details can vary by era, so authentication is never judged on one feature alone.
Q: How do you authenticate this bag? A: Pre-owned luxury items at A Retro Tale are reviewed for key authenticity markers such as materials, stitching, hardware, branding and overall construction. If you would like more detail about this item before purchase, customer service can help.
Q: How should I care for vintage Dior leather? A: Wipe the leather gently with a soft, dry or barely damp cloth and avoid harsh cleaners, overfilling, prolonged direct sunlight and excessive moisture. When not in use, store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag or cloth cover to help preserve its shape, especially as the corners and edges already show light wear.
