Dior “Jazzclub Bag”


Dior Jazzclub Bags

One of the novelties from Dior this spring is the Jazzclub collection. I am not sure what to think about it, I have just went through the collection and I was not really impressed at first sight. I really do not like the Jazzclub pouch and I definitely do not like the leopard printed pieces. I did however like the Jazzclub white wallet at first glance. The Jazzclub bag is still giving me a hard time figuring out whether I like it or not.

There is something about the chain shoulder strap that does not quite fit into the picture. If the strap was made of leather it would have had a much better chance of getting me to like it more. But, the designers decided to go for the chain, and there is nothing I can do about that. I like the shape of the bag, I like the size of the bag, I like the aged leather, I even like the huge silver metal circle on the flap, eventhough it might be a bit of a hassle to open the bag, but I simply do not like the chain. It makes the bag look a bit cheap in some way and the fact that it is interlaced with leather is not helping improve the whole impression the chain left on me.

The Jazzclub Bag is is presented at the moment on the Dior official site in black and white aged leather versions and in zebra and leopard print pony leather. I really, but really, do not like the leopard version. It just does not look class - period. The white aged leather is also not my favourite, I think it would look much nicer if it were in cream, or something more softer, since the in white version it looks a little raw to me. The black leather is a different story, everything looks great, except for the chain issue that is. The zebra printed version does stand out but I am not so sure about it. I have to emphasize my concern about how the pony finished leather looks irl, since it does not look too classy in the pics, and in that case I would not like the zebra print as well.

I took a little peak at the SS 08 runway show and I saw the exotic versions of Jazzclub bag there. And I somehow like those versions better, they seemed more classy, more bank for your buck, but since I do not have any info on their price tag, we will have to wait and see. I am still not 100% sure what to make of these bags. I think I like them, but I am not sure. What do you think about the Jazzclub bags?SIZE: 16,5″w x 10″h x 4,3″d

[…] have already stated my opinion on the Jazzclub collection when I was writing the original Jazzclub post. The thing that made me not like it that much was the chain shoulder strap. There are some […]
