January opens with a coordinated debut of the men’s and women’s Dior spring-summer 2026 collections under Jonathan Anderson. While the Dior Book Tote continues to anchor the women’s lineup, the men receive their fair share of covetable bags. These range from the Normandie and Saddle to the all-new Dior Jett.
The bag launches with a refreshing balance that feels both archival and modern. Designed as a contemporary carryall for the modern nomad, it blends ease with structure. Crafted in supple materials such as technical fabric and suede, the bag moulds gently to the body. Yet, its architectural form ensures it never collapses into messiness.
Details truly define the Dior Jett’s appeal. Magnetic ribbons sit discreetly behind antique gold-finish CD buckles, creating a smooth quick-release experience. This system not only keeps access intuitive and efficient. Meanwhile, the adjustable shoulder strap supports shoulder or crossbody wear, delivering hands-free comfort throughout the day.

Beyond the inimitable #DiorOblique canvas, the Dior Jett becomes a platform for Jonathan Anderson’s literary obsessions. Select versions feature embroidered first-edition book covers, including classics like ‘Dracula’. Elsewhere, deep brown herringbone and brown suede options appear with palladium-finish metal. These variations featured prominently on the spring-summer 2026 runway.
The messenger bag is available in four sizes to suit different needs. The mini, measuring 20 cm by 16 cm, works as a compact crossbody. Then the small, at 31 cm by 25 cm, holds everyday essentials comfortably. The medium shares similar dimensions but accommodates a 15-inch laptop. Finally, the large, measuring 48 cm by 25 cm, suits short trips or weekend use.
Besides the messenger, Dior also introduces the Dior Jett backpack. It is currently available only in brown #DiorOblique jacquard canvas. In Singapore, prices range from SGD2900 for the mini messenger to SGD5400 for the backpack. The medium messenger in herringbone is priced at SGD5100, while the suede version retails at SGD5800.
