Updated with a cross-body strap thatโ€™ll have Meghan Markle wishing she didnโ€™t have to follow royal style rules, the revisited saddle bag comes finished in monochrome covered by the Dior logo, โ€™70s inspired patchwork and leather in bright, contrasting colours.

On reintroducing the saddle bag, Diorโ€™s creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri explained: โ€œI consider this icon of the houseโ€™s recent history the perfect accessory to deal with daily life. The saddle bag is so comfortable to wear with its long strap that you almost forget itโ€™s there.โ€

โ€œ[Itโ€™s] also practical because it allows you to carry everything you need with you,โ€ Grazia Chiuri continued. โ€œItโ€™s for this reason that I wanted it larger and more robust, but also very colourful, embroidered or with a beaded fringeโ€ฆ It adapts to all situations.โ€
