The single flap bag construction, single long shoulder and cross body chain is a change from the iconic Chanel classic double flap 2.55. The original bag style was produced as early as 1989 and until 1995. This beauty here is 28 years old and came in with a dust bag and authenticity card. She is called the Princess Diana bag because the late princess was often seen carrying this bag at public events.
The bag does resemble the Chanel single flap bag, as it has an exterior flap with an open interior but it is slightly different since it has only one long shoulder chain, which can be worn cross-body over the shoulder.
Chanel Diana bag is still very popular and much sought after by fashionistas. The caviar leather is exceptionally hard to find so i went for lamb skin. This is one of the most requested style as it is timeless, compact looking but still much roomier inside. In 2015 Chanel decided to reissue the same bag in both leather and jersey fabric in their 2015 spring collection.
The new Diana's are a little more expensive than the vintage ones but unfortunately the quality and craftsmanship is not the same hence i went for the vintage Diana. The 2015 reissue is priced at $3,200- $3,500 for the jersey fabric and $4,200-$4,700 for the leather. I love because it is light weight, elegant and distinctively Chanel.
