      There was a very recent documentary and they were interviewing very well-off women. These women were speaking about how they no longer purchase authentic purses and have chosen to purchase really good *esluxs* of the designer bags that they do like. They then take that saved money and invest their money into other things such as real estate, stocks etc.

      Thank you for doing this! Lots of good info.If you can, please list good websites or places to find *esluxs* , you know, Hermes is so selective.Also, would love to see something about Lady Dior. I have to say, my heart broke a little when you said “Oh, Prada does these as well”, regarding the serial number. (I’m a nurse, so I probably shouldn’t even dream about owning a Birkin, but I bought my first Prada earlier this year and I was so proud of it. Now it feels a bit like Dollar General ).

    Congratulations on your Lady Dior. I have loved this bag since I was young and first saw Lady Diana wearing it. I would love to have one one day. Thank you so much for all of this information. Who would have thought there would be differences like that. I actually like the less structured look of yours and the handles going flush to the sides. You got a great find and I'm very happy for you that it all worked out. Xoxo

    Hi Jessica,
    Just want you to know how much i appreciate this VINTAGE LADY DIOR review means to me...i have one exactly the same. No feet at the bottom and does not stand upright anymore with no date code. So i was panicking already but when i went through your video, i realized there were Such vintage bags....phew!
    Thanks again for the detailed shots!

      Thanks for a nice vdo. Very difficult to get info on the vintage lady dior. I have the mini vintage one and got similar features (no feet no date code) as your video described, but got no "Made in Italy" on the back of "CD Paris" sign on the inside zipper. Is mine fake?

    • @Chicprofessor
      @Chicprofessor  6 лет назад

      Hi! Thanks for watching! I don't know if that is definitely a sign of it not being authentic- it is harder to tell on the vintage bags. I would suggest using an authenticator just to help you get peace of mind. I like authenticate first if you are in the US or authenticate4u if you are in Europe (I am not sure of this best authenticators outside of these regions) but both are very inexpensive ($10) and you just need to send photos of the item. I hope that helps!

    Thanks for this info.
    Same here... I have the same black one which i thought was fake. I was thinking of selling it too but this video made me decide to keep it instead. Thank you for enlightening me and validating that what i got was not a fake one. Just like you what ultimately got me thinking was the pully of the inside zipper pocket its kinda flimsy and also the non existence of those feet.
    Mine doesn't have the long strap when i bought it. I didnt even know that it comes with it. Maybe the previous owner forgot or lost it. However I am now relieved and realized how much i love this bag. Thanks to you ❤️

    Beautiful, very ladylike, bag. I kind of like the way it flops, but that probably speaks to my more laid back style. The red interior gives me life. Great review!

    Hey Jessica! great review this was very helpful and insightful and very informative that is a gorgeous bag I love black bags with Gold Hardware and by it being vintage just made it that much more classic, I would have thought that it would have needed to come with feet too, but I guess not. Thank you for pointing out the details to the bag great review👍🏽😘

    Jessica, I was able to find a vantage Lady Dior medium size on Fashionophile and I just love it. I plan to send it to the leather surgeon to give it a spa treatment. I can’t wait to have a brand new bag after they are finish the work. Thank you for sharing this valuable information.

    • @Chicprofessor
      @Chicprofessor  5 лет назад +2

      You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful. I always think it is still a good idea to get it professionally authenticated and you can use companies like authenticate first and send in photos for them to use to authenticate for only $10.

    Great video! I come across vintage and first edition bags all the time and they best way to try to compare them to photos online is by finding ones with similar date codes. But in this case you mentioned it didn’t have one. (It still baffles me that they ever didn’t have use them)
    What kind of leather is used for yours?
    Glad yours turned out to be ok, I️m sure you got a great deal on it too 😊

    • @Chicprofessor

    Great info! Love vintage Dior and happy to see someone talking about it. Beautiful lady Dior! So classy. Someday I will hopefully be able to own one 🙏 so this is will be helpful as my budget will be more towards a vintage one. If you do ever send it to leather surgeons, do they also authenticate it for you? What do you think about the Lady Diors is patent leather? Definitely more dressy. Patent leather scares me but I have heard the Dior patent leather is extremely well made.
    What brand is the zipper (underneath) I think Dior uses their own (Says Christian Dior) this is what is own my vintage bags but could differ of course with age.

    • @Chicprofessor
      @Chicprofessor  6 лет назад

      Thank you! Yes, leather surgeons will also authenticate. Fashionphile and some of the other sites actually do not charge much more for the more current version, so if you like that better it would probably be worth it! The Lady dior does not hold it's value as well as Chanel, LV, Hermes, etc. on the pre-loved market. I happened to get an even better deal than the one's I linked above, but I took the risk by not ordering from one of those sits. Luckily, it all worked out :) I don't personally like patent leather much on bags though I did have a patent leather wallet on chain from Dior years ago and it was very durable. Personally, I think lambskin feels more luxurious and is easier to repair, so it was definitely what I was interested in adding to my collection :) Thanks for watching!

  • @johnnycoleman17
    @johnnycoleman17 3 года назад +1

    I’m not sure if you read the blog Mutt Flapper? Probably, but if not she has a lot of fantastic and super interesting advice on authenticating vintage high end bags. The kind of authentication guides that literally no one else writes-the irregularities of the Chanel CC turlock over the years, brands whose authentic-heat stamps tend to run sloppy, etc. Also really great side by side comparison photos to help weed out(even realllly good)superfakes.
    I feel like you probably are aware of this blog, but if not it makes great reading!

    Hey Jess turned out to be a great find I love the classic lady dior as I’ve gotten older I’ve really come to appreciate vintage and the older model bags in most designer today I have had both pre loved as well as brand new in my collection and a lot of changing around and I couldn’t figure out exactly why certain bags were not doing it for me and it dawned on me by the time I decided to start collecting again after a terrible thing happened to me ,quality had begun to decline and now I see it declining at a rapid pace I had 2 brand new speedyb25’s in my collection and I see everyone unboxing and loving them and there was something that wasn’t doing it for me ,1 was my decision to trade my side 30 bandouliere’s for the 25’s big mistake great for crossbody only problem was I don’t see speedys as crossbodies and I wasn’t wearing them that way after the first few times ,so now I was either crook of my arm or only shoulder carrying and this was where I found them to small for myself and my taste I also was starring and really looking at the new quality and I’m sorry to anyone who owns these bags to each their own but they felt extremely flimsy , thin canvas mismatched shiny and dull hardware I was not reaching for them I decided it was time to add bags I had always eyed but never added for whatever reason and I added the Trevi pm in DE and WOWWWW on the hardware , the canvas ,interior just all around a quality bag I love it I then added the Tivoli GM another gorgeous amazing quality hardware canvas interior bag I did get the Melie hobo for Christmas from my husband and that bag is made so well I was actually in shock I look at these 2 bags next to my Pochette Metis which spent half of the 10 months I owned it in repair and the quality there is just no comparison I bought my favorite mm pre loved thank goodness because I have friends still trying to find well made ones today with no issues ,Givenchy deserves more hype than it gets wow what a well made bag the antigona and Chanel I kept remembering the quality of my aunts vintage chanel and the jumbo wasn’t for me chanel is not for me I thought about dior but everything I see is mini I would want the lady dior for sure but not a fan of this mini trend so I’m in purse peace for now my petit noe I love your lady dior is beautiful I would choose the larger for myself took me some time to realize mini doesn’t work for me but your size seems to be the best of both worlds great video ! Xo

    • @Chicprofessor
      @Chicprofessor  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks so much, Lisa! I agree, I think the vintage quality in many bags is superior to that of today. This is the medium size so perhaps if you decide you want one in the future you can get the large! It is a nice size but a bit too big for me. Glad you've found purse peace and thank you for watching!

    • @leeleelv
      @leeleelv 6 лет назад +1

      Chicprofessor oh and yes just know I tend to write novels as comments but yes Luxmommy just purchased the large size and if I were to ever go Dior it would be a lady dior for sure and I would prefer the large I also would love the classic black with gold hardware and I believe it has a red interior however the price point is the reason I haven’t pulled the trigger I would most likely buy it pre loved my other issue is that I have 3 black leather bags already I am thinking the large lady dior in a different color and I’m not sure just yet so I’m waiting for sure!

    • @Chicprofessor
      @Chicprofessor  6 лет назад

      That's understandable. Yes, I saw her unboxing- it's gorgeous! The black does come wit the red interior in both the first and current edition :)

    You have the strap attached on the backside of the handle loop - if you attached it on the other side it will keep the handles from falling down.

It’s patent leather and holds its shape , the only things that’s weird is that the on the date code flap is Christian Dior Paris is gold . When I flip it over , at the bag it says Made in Italy with 2 letters and 4 numbers but only engraved and not in gold . Otherwise everything looks good .

    Hello!! I just found your channel and already love it!! 🥰
    May I ask you a couple questions about your bag? I just bought a vintage Lady Dior and have some doubts about its authenticity:
    Can the lining of your bag be pulled out or is it fully stuck to the inside? I find it odd that the lining of mine isn't fully attached to the bag 🤔
    Also, is yours' lining made of what feels like nylon?
    Ohh! And the zipper pull of mine also feels a bit cheap! It feels like light weight plastic! (Brand is Lampo)
    Thanks for your help dear!! 😘

      Hi! The lining of mine does feel like nylon and it does detach from the inside of the bag. However, my zipper pull is quite heavy. I hope that helps!

    You can fix the structure yourself if you want to spend the time , look on youtube, you can create cardboard stuffing to store it when you don't use it and also heat it to fix the exterior and make it stand up more ....leather conidtioners and color polishes can touch it up for much less than 300.

    Hello: I literally just got my first pre-loved Lady Dior in black with shw. I too thought the tag inside looked kind of cheap and thought they should have done something similar to the main pull on the inside of the purse. Other than that, I love the purse and think it's such a feminine, classic purse to own.

      @@Chicprofessor It’s very difficult to authenticate a bag with “Paris” that written on a leather charm as they were manufactured in Paris only for a super short time period in the 90s. That means the bag must be over 25 years old and one of the very first bags.. though is has the fake screws, or a super Rep. I tend to think it’s a top tier super Rep because it checks all the boxes.

    I appreciate you giving us this information. I learned some things today. However, I feel like you’re not very excited about it. Like it’s a placeholder until you can get a newer one. Between the fact that the differences make it look fake instead of vintage, the wear in the corners and the floppiness of it because it has lost shape, I wouldn’t be excited about it either. ☹️ I just would hate for you to settle and regret it.

      I definitely haven't settled and I agree I was thinking about it a bit like a placeholder in the beginning (I especially missed the feet on the bottom that the newer ones have) but once I started using it I started loving it! I think the lambskin is so luxurious and I love that it was one of the first editions (the one Lady Diana actually wore!). I did a video with a diy structure adding idea and that's made a big difference as well. I will eventually send it to leather surgeons and have them add in structure and fix up the corners professionally but for now I'm loving it as it is and not looking to replace. Thanks for watching!
