Christian Dior Lady Dior Lambskin Medium Bag | Sold Attire

A 2014 Lady Dior in lambskin, finished with gold-tone hardware and the house's most balanced proportions.

The lambskin exterior is smooth and supple, holding its structure with ease whilst showing light, honest wear from careful use. The bag feels composed in hand. The top handles remain firm, the stitching is clean, and the hardware keeps an even tone. Condition is rated 9.5/10, placing it confidently within authenticated vintage Christian Dior pieces that still present sharply.

The Designer's Vision

Dated 18-MA-0114, this bag was produced in Italy in January 2014, during the early Raf Simons era at Dior. This was a pivotal moment—Raf had just arrived in 2012, bringing architectural minimalism to the house whilst respecting its couture heritage.

The Lady Dior itself was born in 1995, originally called "Chouchou" until Princess Diana carried it and made it iconic. The bag's cannage quilting—inspired by the Napoleon III chairs in Dior's original atelier—was never about decoration. It was about memory, structure, and the way a bag can carry both function and legacy.

The detachable shoulder strap gives it everyday range without losing its formal character. The gold-tone hardware and D.I.O.R. charms are subtle markers of belonging—recognised by those who understand the house codes.

This is a Medium Lady Dior for someone who values clarity and proportion rather than excess. It represents the intersection of Dior's couture past and Raf's modern restraint.

For the collector in Cairo, this is not simply a handbag. It is an entry into Dior's architectural elegance, authenticated and timeless.
