Dior is going for gold with #DiorBookTote this holiday season. Intricate embroidery weaves metallic gold-tone thread to form two standout motifs, courtesy of Italian artist Pietro Ruffo. These new renditions, which combine #DiorOblique and leather, are perfect for ushering in the festive mood in style.
Firstly, the gold-tone Dior Around the World motif showcases a star, flowers and a banner proclaiming the poignant words of Marie Stuart. “En ma fin est mon commencement”, it says, which translates to “In my end is my beginning”. The Millefiori Unicorn, on the other hand, sees the Scottish mythological creature nestling whimsically amidst a floral landscape.

Recently, Dior extended its personalisation services to online purchases, so you can personalise your Book Tote with your initials. Drawing from Dior’s cruise 2025 collection, each purchase comes lovingly wrapped in gift boxes depicting the Cabinet de Curiosités motif with Pietro Ruffo’s signature.
