This Week's Obsession: Dior's Next Chapter

When Dior announced the appointment of Jonathan Anderson as its new creative director, a surge of excitement electrified the fashion world. Anderson, celebrated for his avant-garde vision at Loewe, has long been recognised as a trailblazer—challenging conventions, breathing fresh energy into beloved aesthetics, and masterfully balancing modernity with reverence for tradition. His debut Spring/Summer 2026 collection for Dior is not just a milestone; it’s a watershed moment, signalling the dawn of an exhilarating new era for the maison. Here, Anderson unveils an extraordinary tapestry of creativity, seamlessly merging cutting-edge innovation with the house’s signature elegance.

One of the most breathtaking transformations can be seen in his reinterpretation of Dior’s legendary handbags. Each design is a testament to Anderson's genius, marrying bold, architectural shapes with opulent materials and intricate nods to Dior’s illustrious heritage. The result is a captivating collection where every handbag doesn’t merely reflect the past—it reimagines it, offering a thrilling perspective on what luxury can and should be. Under Anderson’s stewardship, the iconic silhouettes are painstakingly crafted with a modern twist—sculpted forms, unexpected textures, and refined details that invite admiration from every angle. These handbags are more than accessories; they are wearable art, destined to become heirlooms and conversation pieces for generations.

With Jonathan Anderson guiding the legacy, Dior’s handbags have transcended reinvention—they have been wholly transformed. This bold new spirit honours the brand’s timeless DNA while illuminating the path forward, ushering in a new age of luxury defined by imagination, craftsmanship, and enduring beauty.

Dior’s new creative director, Jonathan Anderson, has made his mark with the Spring/Summer 2026 collection—and handbags are at the heart of his vision. Known for balancing heritage with innovation, Anderson has introduced the Bow Bag, a sculptural design where folds of leather tie into a sleek knot, redefining Dior’s codes with modern elegance.

He hasn’t abandoned Dior classics—rather, he’s reworked them. The Lady Dior has shed its charms for minimalist bow details, while the house’s signature Cannage quilting has been refreshed with puckered textures. 

Slouchy suede totes, soft hobos, and a reinvented Boston Bag also debuted, blending structure and softness in a way only Anderson can deliver.

What makes this especially exciting for More Luxury Club members is that these bags are both statement-making and versatile. Their rarity, craftsmanship, and modernised design codes make them prime candidates for co-ownership: accessible luxury that’s designed to be used, shared, and cherished.

As Dior begins this new chapter, we see Anderson’s work as the foundation of future icons. Joining More Luxury Club ensures you don’t just watch this evolution—you become part of it.

October's Fab Five is Chock Full of Newness

 

Part of the fun of More Luxury Club is discovery. That's why we put some much effort into bringing you new brands, and new styles from our favourite brands.  This month we have new brands and new styles we think are perfect for autumn. And of course, we're still in love with all things wine or burgundy.  

Last month we introduced you to two new designer bag brands. One Nili Lotan, who just launched handbags this season to her clothing line. If you're looking for the perfect tote, we absolutely love this her latest entry, the elegant Lou Bag in croc effect black leather - and it has a shoulder strap.  Also new to More this month is the Polomi Genevieve Bag in Cabernet, we love the jewel inspired cube handle mounts.  Finally, our first Dolce & Gabanna bag is the Marlene Everyday Leather Tote. We love the retro-inspired shape, protective feet and a place for everything. 

Rounding out the Fab5 is the Jacquemus 'It Bag' the Turismo in canvas and leather, so chic and functional. No wonder it's so popular, not to mention the price point. Lastly, a bag that needs no introduction since it debuted in 2005, the Chloe Paddington Leather Tote. This month's version in tan leather and gold hardware makes it feel like a new discovery. All of these amazing bags can be added to your rotation for a fraction of the price of traditional ownership. And our white-glove service keeps them looking new!

The One --A Bag Too Special Not to be Shared

Hermès Bolide - Not new, but certainly noteworthy

 

 

 

Sometimes a classic is a classic for a reason—few icons capture that spirit quite like the Hermès Bolide. First unveiled in 1923, this pioneering handbag broke new ground with its innovative zipper closure, a then-novel feature inspired by Emile-Maurice Hermès’ vision after witnessing Henry Ford’s automotive advances in North America. Conceived as “le sac pour l’auto,” it was originally crafted for the thrill of new adventures and the elegance of sophisticated travel, embodying a distinct blend of form, function, and French flair.

What truly sets the Bolide apart, however, is its seamless ability to transcend trends while remaining utterly modern. With its graceful curves and understated silhouette, the Bolide balances practicality with refinement—the kind of versatility that makes it equally suited to weekend escapes or quiet moments of luxury closer to home. Each detail tells a story of heritage and innovation, from its robust leatherwork to the iconic racing inspiration behind its name—a nod to the excitement and optimism of a world on the move.

Why do we love it at More Luxury Club? The Hermès Bolide is the perfect marriage of storied tradition and effortless adaptability. It exemplifies what we believe great design should do: make life more extraordinary, not just more beautiful. Whether you’re seeking a smart investment piece or a companion for life’s journeys, the Bolide is more than an accessory—it’s a statement of timeless confidence, ready to be enjoyed and cherished by a new generation of luxury lovers.  Buy My Share.
