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 in the Large Diorissimo Tote? A: With approximate measurements of 39 × 26 × 13 cm, it comfortably holds A4 documents, a tablet, a 13-inch laptop and, in many cases, a slim 15–16-inch laptop, plus daily essentials like a long wallet, phone, small water bottle and cosmetic pouch. Capacity will vary by how you pack—using pouches helps to organise items.
Q: Can I wear it on the shoulder or crossbody? A: Yes. The bag includes a detachable shoulder strap. On this piece the strap drop is about 45 cm, which suits shoulder carry and can allow a shorter crossbody on some heights. Given the Large size, most users prefer hand or shoulder carry for comfort and proportion.
Q: Is the strap adjustable? A: Diorissimo straps are typically detachable and often feature adjustment holes. This bag comes with the detachable strap listed in Accessories; please refer to the photos for the exact hole setting and adjustment range on this specific strap.
Q: How secure is the closure? A: The Diorissimo has an open top with a magnetic snap closure that keeps the two sides neatly together while allowing easy access. For small items, we recommend using the interior pockets or a pouch for added security.
Q: What is the interior like? A: One hallmark of the Diorissimo line is its contrasting leather lining with practical interior pockets. This piece features that contrast lining and internal pockets as noted. Some Diorissimo bags were sold with a detachable zip pouch; this particular bag includes the detachable shoulder strap only unless otherwise stated under Accessories.
Q: Does the Large Diorissimo have metal feet on the base? A: Many Diorissimo totes were produced with protective metal feet, though this can vary by production year and colourway. Please check the product photos to confirm the base details on this exact item.
Q: Is the Diorissimo still in production? A: No. The Diorissimo line was released in the early 2010s and has since been discontinued, making pre-owned pieces the way to purchase this style today.
Q: Where is the Dior date code located and will mine be shown? A: Dior date codes are typically found on the back of the interior leather logo tag (the front reads Christian Dior Paris, with Made in Italy/Spain). The code combines letters and numbers that indicate factory and date. We do not publish full codes online for security, but our team verifies them during authentication and can confirm details on request.
Q: How should I care for the beige grained leather and hardware? A: Wipe the leather with a soft, slightly damp cloth and dry immediately; avoid harsh cleaners. Light-coloured leathers can be sensitive to colour transfer from dark denim and other dyes—be mindful in wet or humid conditions. Store stuffed in a breathable dust bag, keep hardware from rubbing against other items, and avoid prolonged sunlight or heat to preserve the leather’s colour and the gold-tone finish.
Q: What does your “Very Good” condition grade mean for this bag? A: “Very Good” means the bag shows gentle, well-kept use. For this piece you can expect scuff marks on the corners and handles, light interior marks, and light scratches on otherwise shiny hardware, with structure and overall appearance remaining excellent for regular use.
