Iconic and timeless, the Dior Saddle bag features prominently in the Maison’s autumn-winter 2018-2019 campaign.
The Dior Saddle Bag – Instantly recognisable, its horse’s saddle form has been revisited for AW 2018 by Maria Grazia Chiuri in two formats and is available in different colours and materials that echo the show’s inspiration: May ’68, a time of intense creative ferment. She designed two patchwork styles, a floral one with seventies accents, and the other in denim featuring the inscriptions Peace and Love Dior.
It also comes with nine pieces of fine beading, entirely done by hand following designs in bright and contrasting colours, as well as in Dior Oblique canvas and in monochrome leather. Paired with a new ethnic-inspired strap, decorated with fringing and metal elements, it can now be worn cross-body to offer freedom of movement with a hands-free empowered allure.
“This collection provided an opportunity to revive its timeless beauty. I consider this icon of the House’s recent history the perfect accessory to deal with this battle that is daily life,” explains Maria Grazia Chiuri.
