Explores the Letter ’C’ for Cannage

Deciphering symbols and secrets, each new episode in the podcast series examines and explains the codes shaping the House of Dior. By moving from pure audio, this highly-illustrated video format allows for a full immersion into the House’s history and heritage, offering fascinating insights for the viewer into the founding couturier’s own life, the friends who surrounded him, outside influences, and the work of his successors right up to the present day. This new episode explores the letter ’C,’ which stands for Cannage. Learn the story behind this timeless, graphic motif that was inspired by the wickerwork of the Napoleon III cane chairs used to seat guests at the historic New Look show held at 30 Avenue Montaigne in 1947. A hallmark of the iconic Lady Dior handbag, this signature of Dior elegance, with its architectural lines, was also recently reinvented by Maria Grazia Chiuri in a modern Macrocannage version.
