Bag Story: Piece from 2002, during John Galliano’s era at the House of Dior, this distinctive hobo captures the eclectic and experimental spirit that defined the house in the early 2000s.

Crafted in Italy from a combination of supple brown leather and perforated suede, the bag features a patchwork construction of alternating textures and tonal shades of brown. Its relaxed, curved hobo silhouette is finished with a slender leather shoulder strap and aged brass-tone hardware, giving the piece an effortlessly worn-in vintage character.

The tonal patchwork of leather and perforated suede gives this bag a distinctly relaxed character compared with the more recognisable monogram-heavy Dior pieces of the period. Its slim hobo silhouette and naturally aged finish make it feel just as relevant today while retaining the character of its 2002 origins.

Inside, the bag is lined in Dior monogram canvas, adding another signature house detail to this unique archival design. With its earthy palette, mixed materials and unmistakably early-2000s silhouette, this is a particularly special piece for collectors of Galliano-era Dior and those drawn to lesser-seen archival designs.

Condition Disclaimer: Good vintage condition with visible signs of previous wear consistent with its age. The leather and suede show general signs of use, including surface marks, areas of soiling and discolouration. The perforated suede sections show visible dirt and wear, while the leather displays marks and natural variations associated with previous use and age.

The brass-tone hardware shows signs of ageing, including oxidation/verdigris and surface wear, contributing to the bag’s vintage character.
