Fashion and beauty always go hand in hand, and if you can’t get enough of the ‘New Look‘ offerings from Dior Beauty, you should also consider these matching bags from the latest #DiorCruise collection.

Houndstooth holds a special place at the house of Dior, and it isn’t just a simple black-and-white pattern reiterated for the season. Monsieur Christian Dior famously used houndstooth in his haute couture collection in 1948, and the pattern even appeared extensively on Dior’s pointed court shoe several years later.

Today, you will find the enigmatic motif appearing on Dior bags like the Book Tote and Lady D-Lite, both of which are classic icons created for the modern Dior woman. The focus colours are Black and Rose des Vents, all fully embroidered to create a slightly raised texture on the surface of the bags. Another plus point? Both designs are fully constructed from canvas, making them lightweight options that are perfect for daily use.

You can opt for the Book Tote if you prefer a casual option, with the open-top format great for keeping everything within easy reach. The Lady D-Lite is the daintier option, and it will be sold together with a reversible strap that can be slung across the shoulder for a hands-free look.

Prices start at SGD3500 for the Mini Book Tote, before going up to SGD4500 for the Small Book Tote and SGD6700 for the Medium Lady D-Lite. Now available at Dior boutiques in ION Orchard, Marina Bay Sands and Takashimaya Shopping Centre, you will find these houndstooth bags make the perfect addition to your Dior bag collection, especially to match with your ‘New Look’ compacts and lipsticks.
