Delivery & Returns
Q: What typically fits inside this Christian Dior Malice Top Handle Bag? A: With measurements of approximately 22 x 20 x 7 cm, it is best suited to daily essentials such as a phone, cardholder or small wallet, keys, lipstick, a compact and slim sunglasses. It is not designed for larger items such as a tablet or laptop. Please refer to the measurements on this page for the best sense of capacity.
Q: Does this bag come with a shoulder strap? A: No. This piece is designed with a single beaded top handle, and no shoulder strap is listed in the product information.
Q: Can this bag be carried on the shoulder? A: It is primarily intended for hand carry or to be worn in the crook of the arm. The handle drop is approximately 11 cm, so shoulder fit is usually limited and will depend on your frame and what you are wearing.
Q: Is this bag authentic? A: Yes. All items at A Retro Tale are carefully authenticated, and this piece also comes with an authenticity card as listed in the product information.
Q: What is the condition of this bag? A: This bag is rated Very Good Condition. The exterior shows some small but visible stains and scratches, the interior has light traces of use, and the hardware remains shiny with light scratches.
Q: Is white leather difficult to maintain? A: White leather can show marks, colour transfer and surface wear more easily than darker colours, especially on vintage pieces. It is best to avoid contact with dark denim, wet surfaces and prolonged direct sunlight to help preserve the finish.
Q: How should I care for the leather and beaded handle? A: Gently wipe the bag with a soft dry or slightly damp microfibre cloth, avoid harsh cleaners and oils, and store it lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag away from heat and direct sunlight. For deeper cleaning or stain treatment, a professional leather specialist is recommended.
Q: Is the Dior Malice considered a vintage or Y2K style? A: Yes. The Dior Malice is widely appreciated as a vintage Dior style with a strong late 1990s to early 2000s look, known for its distinctive beaded handle and compact, sculptural silhouette.
Q: Is the magnetic closure secure for everyday use? A: The magnetic closure is practical for quick access to your essentials and works well for day-to-evening use. To help the bag keep its shape and close neatly, it is best not to overfill it.
