The Story

A gift to Princess Diana that she carried so often it took her name.

Origin

From Chouchou to Lady Dior

Gianfranco Ferré designed the bag in 1994 under the nickname Chouchou, French for favorite. In 1995 France's first lady Bernadette Chirac gave one to Princess Diana during a Paris visit. In 1996, as a tribute, Dior renamed it Lady Dior with her blessing.

Design

The cannage quilt

The bag's woven diamond pattern is called cannage, or caning. It echoes the Napoléon III chairs that Christian Dior seated his guests on at his runway shows. Cannage means the woven caning used on classic French furniture.

Word of mouth

What gets said about this one, drawn from published reviews and owner discussion. Tell us where your experience differs.

The case for

The standing advice is buy preloved. Excellent condition bags turn up well under boutique pricing, and several owners bought theirs that way and did not look back.
3 sources · YouTube owner review, Abbi Hau pros and cons after a year
Almost nobody argues it is practical. They argue it is beautiful enough not to care, and that is how owners describe deciding to keep theirs.
3 sources · YouTube owner review, Amelia Rose's Closet on the small and mini
Dior's repair service is part of the maths for owners. Corners can be repainted and scratched hardware swapped, which softens how the lambskin wears over time.

The gripes

The interior flap does not come out. You hold it back with one hand and dig with the other, which is why owners are clear this is not a grab and go bag.
4 sources · YouTube owner review, Amelia Rose's Closet on the small and mini
The top handles are squared rather than rolled, so they press into your hand, and they stay sticking up instead of folding flat when you set the bag down.
4 sources · YouTube owner review, Amelia Rose's Closet on the small and mini
Lambskin dents easily, the corners grey out first, and the fixed charms leave small scratches on their ring and on each other.
3 sources · YouTube owner review, Amelia Rose's Closet on the small and mini
Most owners land on it as an occasion bag. It is heavy for its size, awkward to hang off a chair back, and the leather wants babying.
4 sources · PurseForum: newbie question on the Lady Dior flap
It does not hold value and owners say so bluntly. Expect a real gap between the boutique price and what a resale buyout returns.
