PHOTO COURTESY OF DIOR
Astrology has always held importance for the house of Dior. Christian Dior himself was fiercely superstitious, consulting the stars before making decisions and relying on talismans like a gold star and four-leaf clover. So it comes as no surprise when the latest Niki de Saint Phalle capsule weaves mystical elements into its creations.
An homage to the visual artist’s creative spirit, the collection epitomises her extraordinary imagination through three of her works. Experience Tu es mon dragon (1968), Strength (1973) and Foulard Zodiaque (1991) through reinvented works. These not only appear on a series of bags, but also elegant silk squares and long-sleeved tees.
Today’s spotlight shines on two iconic bag designs from the range. Firstly, the Medium Dior Book Tote (SGD4900) in white brings a celestial twist with all-over multicoloured zodiac embroidery. Revisit the zodiac signs with this 36 cm by 27.5 cm carrier, complete with the iconic Christian Dior Paris signature.
You’ll also find the classic Lady Dior in white calfskin donning the eye-catching zodiac print. Embellished with pale gold metal D-I-O-R charms, matching handles and a strap dressed in symbols, this style is a fun way to show off your love for astrology. Just big enough to fit your daily essentials, it comes in the darling 12 cm by 10.2 cm micro (SGD9700) and 20 cm by 17 cm small (SGD8800) sizes.
Step into a fascinating mythological universe with colourful, spellbinding motifs from zodiac signs to an irresistible dragon with Dior’s Niki De Saint Phalle capsule collection.
