"For his first men's show in June 2025, he unveiled the fashion house's Book Cover Collection, which included iterations of the beloved Book Tote and other classic styles reimagined as the covers of iconic novels. The vivid yellow Dracula version - worn by the likes of Rihanna and Jennifer Lawrence - immediately sold out, but other titles such as Madame Bovary and Ulysses are still available."
"His first *original* bag design for the house, however, is the charming Bow Bag. Inspired by the quintessential Dior emblem, Anderson created a trapezoidal purse in supple leather cinched at the center to mimic the shape of a bow. Like the new Lady Dior styles, the Bow also debuted on the S/S 2026 runway and finally went live in January."
"The accessory is a big hit for Dior loyalists as well as fans of the coquettecore aesthetic. Apart from a selection of neutrals, the Bow Bag comes in a dreamy pastel pink, tourmaline, buttercup yellow, and metallic gold and silver. It's available in two sizes, small and medium, and in different leather textures."
Jonathan Anderson, recently appointed creative director at Dior, has quickly established his influence through several successful bag designs. His first men's show in June 2025 featured the Book Cover Collection, reimagining classic Dior styles as iconic novel covers, with the yellow Dracula version becoming an immediate sellout. During his debut women's show at Paris Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2026, Anderson reinterpreted the heritage Lady Dior bag with embellishments like four-leaf clovers and bows. His first original design, the Bow Bag, debuted on the same runway and launched in January. Inspired by Dior's signature bow emblem, the trapezoidal leather bag features a cinched center and comes in multiple colors and finishes, appealing to both Dior loyalists and coquettecore enthusiasts.
