#DiorLadyArt
For the fourth edition of its Dior Lady Art series, luxury fashion house Dior tapped South African visionary Athi-Patra Ruga and African-American creative Mickalene Thomas to design limited-edition iterations of the iconic Lady Dior bag. With a timeless style from the label’s storied arsenal, the initiative includes Black craftsmanship. After a prelaunch in December, the Lady Bag capsule collection goes on sale on January 4 at select Dior stores across the country.
