As Dior looks towards Spring–Summer 2026, two accessories emerge as defining gestures within Jonathan Anderson’s first season at the House: the introduction of the Dior Bow bag and a considered, playful reimagining of the Lady Dior.

Together, they offer an early indication of how Anderson is approaching the brand’s heritage, with an emphasis on lightness, symbolism and ease.

The Dior Bow bag first appeared alongside Anderson’s Spring–Summer 2026 ready-to-wear collection, where its sculptural form drew attention for its restraint. Shaped as a bow, one of Dior’s most familiar motifs, the design feels gently expressive rather than declarative.

Crafted in grained leather, its clean lines and softly structured silhouette give it a natural versatility that suits everyday wear.

Practical details are integrated with discretion. An invisible closure preserves the clarity of the design, while a removable chain strap, threaded with metal links and subtle bow accents, allows the bag to move easily between shoulder and hand.

The Dior Bow bag is offered in small and medium sizes and appears in smooth, metallic and crinkled leathers, as well as embroidered versions featuring Buttercup Garden and Dior Clover motifs.

The colour palette ranges from classic black to softer, more optimistic shades such as dreamy pink, tourmaline, buttercup yellow, hermitage and latte white, each finished with the familiar Dior logo.

The Lady Dior also returns this season with a renewed sense of charm. Rather than altering its structure, Anderson focuses on surface and detail, treating the bag as an object of personal meaning as much as one of status.

The Mini Lady Dior Clover is embroidered with four-leaf clovers and finished with a small red ladybug, available in green, black and rose soupir.

The Mini Lady Dior Buttercup is scattered with three-dimensional buttercups in vibrant yellow and accompanied by a tiny bee, one of the House’s enduring symbols. Signature “D, I, O, R” charms complete both designs.

Together, the Dior Bow bag and the latest Lady Dior styles feel thoughtful yet whimsical, balancing craftsmanship with a sense of warmth. Both collections will arrive in Dior boutiques worldwide from January 2026.
