Dior invites you to get up-close to explore the savoir-faire behind the making of the Diorama bag.
The new Diorama bag is produced entirely by hand. Its cannage – the motif that channels the pattern from the back of a Napoleon III chair – which has been present since Christian Dior’s first fashion show in 1947, has been completely reinvented. Now, with a melange of threads and textures, it’s traced out in oversized, ribbed, architecturally graphic lines. Produced by specialized artisans, relief flower embroideries and tonal mixes appear like a French-style garden in miniature or like ornamentation inspired by the gilding of old books printed and embossed on the leather. Its chain of CD-engraved links and its fastener mimicking a new kind of metallic badge capture that signatureDiorama urban style.
You can also watch making of the small “Be Dior” flap bag.
