What fashion pop culture moment stands out in your memory? For me, it’s the iconic dress worn by Carrie Bradshaw in Sex and the City – John Galliano’s Fall 2000 newsprint dress.
This unforgettable fashion moment has captivated many, evidenced by the recent auction of an ultra-rare gown version of the dress, which sold for 15,300 euros.
The Dior Saddle Bags featuring the same newsprint from the Fall 2000 collection are also highly sought after. Some of the last recorded selling prices include $12,500 at What Goes Around Comes Around and $16,900 at Treasures of NYC.
Recently, an eye-catching newsprint Saddle Bag was spotted among Dior’s newest collection, unveiled late last month.
Dior Pre-Fall 2024 pays homage to the brand’s rich history and roots, with Maria Grazia Chiuri reinventing some of the House’s most historic codes. The collection combines the past with the future, exploring Dior’s Parisian origins and its beginnings in the United States. The redesigned collection takes inspiration from actress Marlene Dietrich, a client of Christian Dior’s, and features a special print showcasing Parisian and New York landmarks.
In addition to the iconic Dior Newsprint Saddle Bag, new iterations of the Toujours Bag, Dior Book Tote, and the classic Lady Dior are also part of the collection. Explore the collection on Vogue Runway and discover some of our favorite looks below.
