THE ICONIC LADY DIOR

Equal parts symbol and legend, the Lady Dior made its début on Lady Diana’s arm, launching from there into its extraordinary destiny. An architectural homage to the House’s excellence, this iconic cannage creation reinvents itself through the collections in a multitude of colors, sizes, and ever-exceptional materials. 

SAVOIR-FAIRE AND EXCELLENCE, WITH HEART

Every Lady Dior starts its journey in Dior’s Italian workshops, where the petites mains’ virtuoso craftsmanship brings it to life. This constantly evolving savoir-faire redefines the possible, while each detail, carried out with infinite meticulousness, shapes each bag’s own identity. 

LADY DIANA AND LADY DIOR

The House’s iconic Lady Dior bag is eternally linked to Lady Diana, Princess of Wales. In September 1995, while attending the opening of the Paul Cézanne retrospective at the Grand Palais in Paris, the First Lady of France presented her with a yet-unreleased Dior bag – then called Chouchou.

 

During an official visit to Argentina in November of the same year, the Princess appeared carrying the bag as she was getting off the plane in Buenos Aires. The scene was immortalized in a now iconic photo immediately circulated around the world. The accessory quickly became one of Lady Diana’s go-to pieces, and she wore it during all of her outings, going as far as requesting a navy blue version to match her eyes. It’s only natural that Lady Diana, who loved the bag for its modern, elegant curves – and simply “because it suited [her] well,” eventually inspired the name of this object of desire.
