Dior Surrealism Book Bag

Dior is bringing fashion closer to art by combining Surrealism with High Fashion. So what is Surrealism? It’s cultural movement that started in the 1920’s where artist painted uncomfortable and illogical scenes with accurate photographic (also known as photorealism). Surrealism is best known for its visual artworks and writings – think of abnormal creatures drawn from ordinary objects and paintings that let the unconscious mind to create its own story.

The Book Bag was created early this year (in the Spring Summer 2018 Collection). The Dior Surrealism Book Bag is designed for the Fall Winter 2018 Collection. It’s the same bag with a different exterior style.

The Design

The Book Tote is the new upcoming classic tote of the house. The bag is large, durable and contemporary as new styles are being released every season.

The Surrealism version is a limited edition and it’s made from smooth calfskin. The body is printed with motif inspired by Surrealism. The words like ‘Si Vous Aimez’ – if you like or if you love. ‘Vous Amerez’ – you will love and ‘L’amour’ – love, are imprinted on the body. And if you search for details – the name of the brand is marked in the center in leather. It reads: ‘Christian Dior’. And perhaps this is Dior’s version of Surrealism. It’s to hide the logo in the background while enhancing the French words.

This tote bag can be carried in the hand or on the shoulder. It does not feature a shoulder strap as it might be too big to carry cross body.

The Interior

Carry this Book Tote as your contemporary companion at day and night. It’s a beautiful handbag for the modern woman. The interior comes with a large main compartment for all your daily essentials and more.
