Introduced to the world in 2018, the Dior Book Tote is a now iconic design introduced by Creative Director, Maria Grazia Chiuri. This carryall was inspired by a 1967 drawing by Marc Bohan which was stored in the House’s archives. The launch of this must-have tote caused shockwaves through the fashion industry as editors, influencers and celebrities all tried to get their hands and shoulders on it. This bag is as functional as it is iconic, and the resale market is now flooded with the tote in many different sizes, colors, and designs.

Each Book Tote is designed with the utmost craftsmanship and highest quality materials, and hand-made by Dior’s skilled artisans. The Book Tote is available in around 27 different materials such as Oblique calfskin, Toile de Jouy, and embossed leather, and is available in almost 40 different colors. And while these bags are undoubtedly beautiful, versatile, and functional, the current supply, demand, and pricing may have some of you questioning whether there’s a better option.

While we can’t necessarily say these bags are a better option, we’ve chosen five of our favorite totes for you to also consider when you’re shopping around for new carryalls for your store.

CHANEL DEAUVILLE

The Chanel Deauville Tote first appeared in Chanel’s Spring/Summer 2012 collection and became an editor’s favorite. Named after Coco’s favorite beach resort, this large, slouchy bag is the perfect travel and vacation tote. Featuring open and zipper pockets, a key clasp, woven chain straps and top handles, this bag comes in many different color combos and fabrics, but most notably in the Chanel Canvas.

LOUIS VUITTON NEVERFULL

Launched in 2007, the Neverfull — which was designed to be a direct competitor to Goyard’s St. Louis Tote — is still one of Louis Vuitton’s most popular styles to date. This oversized tote is extra roomy and strong, reversible and features a contrasting interior too. Louis Vuitton updated the tote in 2013 to include a detachable accessories pouch, additional interior lining colors with a refreshed print, and launched an all-leather Neverfull.

GOYARD ST. LOUIS TOTE

The original Nevefull bag, Goyard’s St. Louis Tote is a bona fide classic and the star of the Goyard show. Featuring an open top, dual-rolled handles, inner pocket and matching detachable pouch, this lightweight carryall is as beautiful as it is exclusive. Goyard’s signature interlocking Y print — a symbol of the family’s history as log-drivers — is subtle yet striking and the majority of the Goyard products are crafted from Goyardine, which is their signature coated canvas fabric.

GUCCI OPHIDIA TOTE

The retro-inspired Gucci Ophidia collection was launched in 2018 in GG Supreme canvas. It features Gucci’s vintage signature web stripe and the shiny gold GG Marmont logo which can be found on Gucci’s handbags, wallets, belts, and more. Gucci’s most popular Ophidia bags include the shoulder bag, bucket bag, and the top handle tote.

LOUIS VUITTON ONTHEGO

Introduced in 2019, the OnTheGo Tote resembles the Neverfull but features a modern, oversized monogram print. It originally came out in the GM size which boasts a cavernous capacity for the essentials, but throughout the years, Louis Vuitton has released the MM and PM sizes to cater to those who’d prefer a smaller tote.
