The Savoir-Faire Behind the Dior Caro

A masterpiece in 18,000 stitches...

The house of Dior has a knack for knockout bags, we could write a thesis on Galliano’s saddle, from conception to Carrie Bradshaw to Kim Jones resurgence. But we’re here today to discuss the new ‘Dior Caro’ bag from Maria Grazia Chiuri. Debuting on the Cruise SS21 runway, the Caro is an intricate masterpiece in leather craftsmanship. 

 

As part of the brand’s ‘Savoir-Faire’ series, the house of Dior has unveiled the steps and secrets behind the conceptualisation and manifestation of the soon-to-be It bag. A striking silhouette crafted from fine Italian calf leather, the Caro requires no less than 18,000 stitches to create the subtle geometric wave of its cannage motif alone.

 

The Dior Caro is available in two sizes and an array of shades with elegant gold hardware.
