Enchanted by Japan’s delicate beauty and profound artistry, Monsieur Christian Dior—ever the aesthete—found in its visual language a kindred spirit. His reverence for its traditions blossomed into a lasting creative dialogue, one that continues to shape the maison’s vision today.
For Autumn 2025, that dialogue takes new form as the Lady Dior slips into something softer—a reverie in bloom. Reimagined as Cherry Blossom, the iconic silhouette arrives cloaked in sumptuous burgundy leather and adorned with a cascade of hand-embroidered florals, each blossom delicately punctuated with faceted beads.
Crafted in the Dior Ateliers, this beautiful piece is brought to life by the skilled hands of artisans who cut, assemble, and stitch each component with meticulous precision. The final flourish? The signature ‘D, I, O, R’ charms—polished and poised like jewellery— all finished by hand.
First introduced in 1995, the Lady Dior became a symbol of grace when it was famously carried by Princess Diana. Though known by her royal title, she was often referred to as Lady Diana—a name inherited from her father and embraced before her marriage to then-Prince Charles.
In honour of her timeless elegance, Dior named the bag Lady Dior, sealing its place in fashion history. This season’s bloom-drenched iteration feels like a poetic continuation of that tribute—an homage to legacy, femininity, and the artistry that endures through time.
