Vintage Dior Leather Belt CD Buckle Late 1990s Dark Brown

A silver-tone rectangular buckle with an open ‘CD’ cutout draws focus at the centre of this Dior belt, its polished surface marked by fine linear scratches from careful use. The exterior is cut from dark brown smooth leather, traced along the edges with a subtly textured trim, while the interior lining is rendered in pale beige leather—visible at the sides and at the punch holes. No visible logo appears on the outer face, letting the weight and geometry of the hardware stand alone.

Labelled in serif gold ‘Christian Dior’, this belt falls into the late 1990s to early 2000s, a period when John Galliano’s hand at the house brought a sharper, more graphic sensibility to even the most utilitarian accessories. The assertive ‘CD’ buckle distills that moment—Galliano’s Dior at its most direct, where branding was sculpted into the metal itself.

Construction is precise: single compartment structure, no visible serial or size stamp. The belt’s dimensions—85 cm in length and 3.5 cm in width—suggest a versatile fit. There are no additional accessories included.
