PHOTO COURTESY OF DIOR
Inspired by a serendipitous encounter in 1995 with the late Princess Diana, Dior named the bag she carried the Lady Dior bag. In tribute to its muse, the enduring style maintains its core identity, complete with textural Cannage stitching and precise architectural lines, while adapting to the times. And this summer, you can learn all about it as the Lady Dior House exhibition graces Singapore’s sunny shores.
Under the creative direction of Maria Grazia Chiuri, Monsieur Christian Dior’s profound appreciation for art remains an integral pillar of the maison. It further exemplifies this commitment by inviting artists to reimagine the iconic bag as a work of art via the Lady Dior As Seen By and Dior Lady Art initiatives.
The touring Lady Dior House exhibition is a celebration of the bag’s rich history and its ongoing evolution. Ready to immerse yourself in the world of Dior? It commences with an installation that showcases the vibrant versatility of the Lady Dior. This then sets the stage for a retrospective journey through the Dior Lady Art collection.
Visitors will also be captivated by the Lady Dior As Seen By project. Showcasing both renowned international artists and local talents, Genevieve Chua, Samuel Xun, and Grace Tan, the display offers a diverse exploration of the Lady Dior bag as a canvas for creativity. After immersing in this artistic journey, enjoy an artisan demonstration and capture memorable moments against a vibrant rainbow wall.
