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 Trotter Romantique Bag? A: With approximate measurements of 25 x 13 x 6 cm, this bag is best suited to daily essentials rather than bulky items. It should comfortably hold a phone, cardholder, keys, lipstick and a few small personal items. Please refer to the Measurements on this page for the exact size.
Q: Is this bag a shoulder style or a handheld bag? A: This piece has dual top handles with an approximate handle drop of 14 cm, and no longer strap is included in the product information. It is best carried by hand or worn tucked under the arm rather than crossbody.
Q: Does the bag have any interior organisation or a secure closure? A: Yes. This bag features a flap closure and one internal zip pocket, which is useful for smaller valuables such as cards, receipts or keys.
Q: What materials and design details define this style? A: This vintage Dior design features beige Trotter canvas with tonal leather trim, silver-tone hardware and the signature Romantique bow detail. It is a recognisable vintage Dior look often associated with the Galliano-era aesthetic.
Q: What condition is this particular bag in? A: The overall condition is rated Very Good. There is rubbing on the piping and leather trim, light traces of use inside, and the hardware remains shiny with light surface scratches. As with most vintage canvas Dior bags, gentle signs of age and handling are to be expected.
Q: How should I care for vintage Trotter canvas and leather trim? A: Clean only very gently with a soft, slightly damp cloth and avoid soaking the canvas or getting moisture onto the leather trim. Avoid oils, harsh cleaners, colour transfer from dark clothing and prolonged humidity or direct sunlight. When not in use, store the bag lightly stuffed in a breathable dust bag to help preserve its shape.
Q: Is wear on the trim or handles common with vintage Romantique bags? A: Light rubbing, trim wear and surface ageing can be normal on vintage examples, especially on canvas styles with leather edging and decorative handle details. This is why condition notes are important to review carefully on any pre-owned Dior piece.
Q: Does this item come with any original extras? A: No extra inclusions are listed for this item. If an additional strap, box, dust bag or authenticity card is not mentioned in the product information, it should be assumed not to be included.
Q: Does this item have a serial number or date code? A: No serial number is listed in this product information. On many vintage Dior bags, buyers may encounter a production or date code on the interior tag rather than a unique serial number, so this detail should always be considered alongside materials, stitching, hardware and provenance.
Q: How do you authenticate a vintage Dior bag like this? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is checked by in-house experts using a multi-point review of materials, construction, hardware, stamps and overall details. We stand behind the authenticity of the pieces we sell and are happy to provide further product information on request.
