Dior Samourai

Dior’s Samourai 1947 bags have me torn. The lines are Frenchified-Japanese; meaning they’re really stunning. They’re not exquisite; a better word is bold. These are statement bags. I’ll tell you why I’m really torn about them. On the one hand (arm?) they’re complicated and design-intensive creations which make me appreciate the artistry. On the other hand, they are ludicrously impractical. I mean seriously, how long will the tortoiseshell detail on the handle stay intact? I get that it’s a limited edition bag and therefore will probably be well taken care of, but if you bought this and then snapped off the very delicate little tortoiseshell serpent detail on the handle, how pleased would you be? I don’t think you need help with the answer, but I’ll go ahead anyway… not very. At all. And at nearly $4000 each, it would be a shame. But, maybe you’re a person who laughs at such danger; maybe you’re someone who wants others to know that you laugh at such danger and more importantly, maybe you’re someone who has $3900 to help you make sure others know you laugh at this silly danger. In that case. Go. Get this bag. Right. Now.
