If the latest Dior bag making its rounds in Paris Fashion Week street style had a passport to stamp, it'd be full within weeks.
This year, Dior's D-Journey bag has been on the sort of global tour previously reserved for the likes of Dua Lipa. When the slouchy leather hobo bag debuted on Dior's Spring/Summer 2025 runway last September, it was styled into a collection of technical windbreakers and track-chic skirts; it was positioned like the sort of low-key luxury tote Hailey Bieber or Kaia Gerber would carry to their Los Angeles Pilates studio with sneakers to match. But after hitting shelves earlier this year, the $4,000-and-up Dior bag has gone on to complement far more than sporty spice outfits around the fashion world.



The D-Journey's rise is bookended by two Paris Fashion Week street style outings: first at Couture week in January, presently at the ready-to-wear shows this March. It's usurped the vintage Dior bags street style had lately favored—like early-aughts saddle bags and the Princess Diana-inspired Lady Dior—as the one every VIP and fan of the house wants to carry.
It's not just an affinity for creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri's take on handbags (or a close relationship with the house) that has guests carrying the D-Journey. It's the range with which it can be styled. Jenna Ortega, Nicola Coughlan, and Anya Taylor-Joy arrived at the Couture show swinging theirs with vastly different takes on monochromatic dressing: a Dior bar jacket and micro shorts for Jenna, a deconstructed biker jacket and skirt for Nicola, and a one-shoulder bodysuit over a fringe skirt for Anya.
Fast-forward to the ready-to-wear show, and the Dior bag's versatility became even more obvious. It still showed up as a plus-one to an all-black-everything coat and dress (like Olivia Palermo's), but it also accompanied Taylor Swift-inspired tartan skirts and classic trench coats. No matter which way high-profile guests interpreted the dress code, they clearly wanted a soft, yet spacious leather bag to sit front row with them.


The Dior D-Journey bag covered thousands of miles between those runway shows—and even more types of A-list outfits. Taylor Swift toted it as her plus-one to a Super Bowl Eve party in New Orleans, styled in pop star fashion with a Penny Lane coat and a micro mini dress. Jennifer Lopez revealed her new Dior bag on a trip to her Los Angeles office, paired with casual Friday St. Agni slacks and a beige T-shirt.
Then Rihanna pulled off a hat-trick of Dior bag-centric outfits befitting an ambassador for the house's signature fragrance: first with an oversize birthday dinner suit, then with a trendy pinstripe blazer and slacks, and finally, with cozy tie-dye sweats and two more Dior and Louis Vuitton bags for a day of travel.



A-list or everyday, every well-dressed traveler has heard that life and personal style aren't about the destination. All these sightings of Dior's latest bag prove it's the one to carry along for the journey.
