The Lady Dior Saga

"The Lady Dior woman is as mysterious as she is mesmerizing. She's timeless, ageless, and iconic. I can never tire of my quest to understand and inspire her." - John Galliano


In 2009, Dior's John Galliano launched a rather magical advertising campaign to promote the historic and iconic Lady Dior handbag. Inspired by the black and white films of the nineteen-forties, Galliano expresses his remarkable vision through the creation of a mysterious woman that embodies all things Parisian, style, and elegance into one global package; this character is none other than Lady Dior. Given the portrayal of such a sophisticated and multifaceted chatacter, Galliano taps gorgeous French actress Marion Cotillard to fulfill the role of what is undeniably the life and spirit of Christian Dior.
