A timeless icon with an extraordinary destiny, the Lady Dior has never ceased reinventing itself. At the convergence of modernity and elegance, it encapsulates the quintessence of Dior style, with its architectural lines and distinctive cannage. For the Dior Lady Art project, the house invites several artists each season to play the metamorphosis game, transforming this object of desire into a veritable work of art.
These multi-expressive personalities share a common goal: to sublimate the heritage and fundamentals of this fascinating symbol, in the light of their own singular universe.

The Lady Dior is transposed into a unique creation, an emblem of inventiveness and poetry. An encounter between Dior and the world’s cultures, this wonderfully inspiring carte blanche showcases virtuoso techniques and artisanship, imbued with a spirit of innovation. Every detail, thought out with infinite meticulousness, fuses dream and reality through the combined prism of imagination and exceptional savoir-faire, transcending the limits of excellence.
