This Dior Bag is Saddled with History

Did you come here for a history lesson? No? Well I’m gonna give you one anyways, because I actually think the history of the Dior Saddle Bag is pretty interesting and reminds me why I fell in love with fashion in the first place. But don’t worry, I’m gonna keep this short and sweet and stick to the major talking points only. The Dior Saddle Bag first hit the scene in 1999 and was the brain child of the house’s former artistic director, John Galliano. But it wasn’t until Ms. Carrie Bradshaw was spotted with multiple iterations of the bag in season 3, episode 5 of Sex and the City (that first aired on July 9, 2000) that this bag was cemented as THE It Bag of the early aughts. (Seriously though, how did Carrie always afford all of her designer digs? I think she was secretly sugar babying…)

After years of “it bag” status, the bag seemingly fell off and was discontinued in 2007 (maybe this was the real cause of the economic disaster of 2008). But now with the resurgance of Y2K fashion, the fashion house of Dior has brought the bag back, and boy it is HOT again. What goes around comes around, as they say.

Actually, it was BeyoncΓ© herself who first heralded the bag back in the fashion god’s good graces when she was photographed with one of the bags in 2014. (Don’t attack me, but it was a pretty ugly outfit, so it just goes to show that Queen Bey literally has superpowers.) Two years later, Korean popstar, CL, sported the bag on the gram and the outfit was hot-fire (I’m literally obsessed). And slowly, the celebs started carrying this bag in droves again, until Dior could ignore the resurgence no longer, and the house (led by creative director, Maria Grazia Chiuri) officially brought the bag back in 2018. Check out the end of this post to see some of my fave ways celebs have styled the bag.

There are a lot of saddle bag dupes out there, but trust me, this one’s the absolute best. It comes in a beautiful faux leather and has the exact same shape and vibe as the real McCoy. Sure, it doesn’t have the CD logo details, but you’re gonna need to hit up Canal Street (or DH Gate) for one of those.
