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 Large Lady Dior? A: With approximate measurements of 31 × 26 × 9 cm for this exact piece, it’s a roomy, structured top‑handle bag. Expect space for a large smartphone, a continental wallet, keys, a small cosmetics pouch, slim sunglasses in a soft case, and a tablet up to around 11 inches. A4 documents generally fit flat. The zip top narrows the opening slightly, so thicker items may need angling. For certainty, compare your items with the Measurements listed here or ask us for a tailored fit check.
Q: Will it fit a laptop? A: An 11‑inch tablet or small device typically fits. A 13‑inch laptop is usually a tight squeeze because of the structured sides and zip opening and isn’t recommended for regular use, especially with a protective sleeve. If you’d like us to test a specific device for this bag, just ask and we’ll be happy to check.
Q: Is the shoulder strap adjustable, and can I wear it crossbody? A: This vintage piece includes a detachable shoulder strap and, for this exact bag, an approximate strap drop of 42 cm. Vintage Lady Dior straps are often fixed length rather than adjustable. Most wearers can carry it comfortably on the shoulder; crossbody wear sits relatively high depending on height and layers. The dual top handles (approx. 10 cm drop) are ideal for hand or crook‑of‑arm carry.
Q: How secure is the closure and what is the interior layout? A: The Large Lady Dior typically features a top zip for secure closure. Inside this piece you’ll find a main compartment lined in brown logo‑jacquard with one internal zipped pocket for valuables. Please refer to our photos for the exact layout of this bag.
Q: What materials and hardware does this bag have? A: This piece is crafted in beige cannage‑quilted lambskin with gold‑tone hardware and the signature D.I.O.R. charms. Cannage quilting is Dior’s iconic lattice pattern that provides a softly padded texture. This bag is labelled Made in Italy.
Q: How should I care for the lambskin and light beige colour? A: Handle with clean, dry hands and keep away from moisture, oils and prolonged sunlight. Be mindful of colour transfer from dark denim and richly dyed fabrics onto the beige leather. Wipe gently with a soft, dry microfibre cloth; condition smooth leather very sparingly and only after testing on a discreet area. Store upright, lightly padded, in a breathable dust bag, and avoid overfilling to preserve the structure and zip alignment.
Q: Will the charms or hardware mark the leather over time? A: Charms and metal rings can leave light impressions if pressed against the leather during storage. To minimise this, tuck the charms and strap inside the bag and place a soft felt or cloth between hardware and leather before storing. Keep the bag lightly stuffed and upright to reduce pressure points.
Q: Where are the brand markings and date code located, and how is dating handled? A: Authentic Lady Dior bags feature an interior leather tag heat‑stamped “Christian Dior PARIS” with the country of origin beneath. The date/production code is typically stamped on the back of that tag or on a small leather tab inside a pocket, depending on era. The code combines letters (factory) and numbers (timing). We’re happy to share close‑ups and help interpret the code for this exact piece.
Q: Is the Large Lady Dior still produced, and can I use alternative straps? A: Dior continues to produce the Lady Dior line in multiple sizes, with seasonal variations in colours and finishes. Many owners also pair the bag with wider decorative straps for a different look. If using non‑Dior straps, choose lightweight options to avoid undue wear on the metal rings and shoulder.
Q: What accessories are included and what is the condition? A: This listing includes a detachable shoulder strap. The bag is in Very Good overall condition with light traces of use on the exterior and interior; the hardware remains shiny with light scratches. If an accessory isn’t listed under “Accessories,” it isn’t included—feel free to ask us to confirm.
Q: How do you authenticate this item? A: Every item at A Retro Tale is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, hardware, stamps, date code and overall construction. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional photos or details on request.
