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 this Christian Dior Oblique Crossbody Bag? A: With approximate dimensions of 22 × 17 × 7 cm, it comfortably holds a large smartphone, slim long or compact wallet, keys, sunglasses in a soft pouch, a passport and a few small cosmetics. It is not suitable for an iPad or A5 notebook. Capacity depends on how you pack—please refer to the Measurements on this page for exact sizing.
Q: Is the strap adjustable or removable? A: This piece features a single fixed crossbody strap with an approximate 55 cm drop. It is not detachable and does not have adjustment holes, so the drop length is as listed.
Q: What is Dior Oblique canvas and is it durable? A: Dior Oblique is a woven jacquard fabric (often a cotton blend with technical fibres) that offers good day‑to‑day durability while remaining lightweight. As a textile it can snag if rubbed against abrasive surfaces and it is not waterproof, so a little care goes a long way.
Q: How should I clean and care for the Oblique jacquard and leather trim? A: Gently dust the fabric with a soft, dry microfibre cloth or a very soft brush. Avoid soaking, scrubbing, or harsh chemicals, which can distort the weave and fade the motif. If the bag gets damp, blot and allow it to air‑dry away from heat and direct sunlight. Conditioned leather trim should only be cleaned with a soft dry cloth; for deeper care or colour touch‑ups, use a trusted professional. Avoid metal polishes on the hardware as they may remove plating.
Q: Is this bag suitable for everyday use or light rain? A: Yes, the size and zip‑top design make it practical for daily essentials. The jacquard fabric may handle the odd sprinkle but is not water‑resistant—avoid heavy rain. If caught in light rain, gently blot and let it air‑dry naturally.
Q: Will a long/continental wallet fit? A: Most slim long wallets (around 19 × 10 cm) will fit lengthwise along the base with room for a phone and small items. Very thick or rigid wallets may limit space for other belongings.
Q: What comes with the bag? A: Everything included is listed under the product information section for this listing. For this item, no extras are currently listed. If you have questions about what’s included, please contact us before purchasing.
Q: Where is the Dior date code located and what if I can’t find one? A: Dior date codes are typically stamped on the reverse of the interior leather logo tag or on a small leather tab inside a pocket. Formats vary by era, and on vintage pieces the stamp can be faint or worn. Absence or illegibility of a code does not by itself indicate inauthenticity—our specialists assess materials, construction, stamps and hardware holistically.
Q: Is this style unisex? A: Absolutely. The clean silhouette and adjustable‑free crossbody drop make it an easy, hands‑free option for all genders.
Q: How does A Retro Tale authenticate this bag? A: Every item is rigorously vetted by our in‑house experts using multi‑point checks of materials, stitching, heat stamps, hardware and date codes where present. We stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell and can provide additional details or photos on request.
