Lady Dior bag on film

The LVMH group is diversifying into the Fashion Film arena. The fashion conglomerate is working on a short motion picture focusing on Christian Dior’s reinvented Lady Dior bag.

Interestingly, Dior’s latest excursion is very much designed for the digital age: far from a web-hosted fashion show video or perfume commercial, the short film, starring Marion Cotillard, comes sliced into a series of four shorts to draw viewers back to the site for new installments (it looks as if the rate will be one per season, to chime with John Galliano’s collections). Equally, the video itself contains links to ‘circulate’ and ‘share’ the film, encouraging a viral online campaign of unsolicited publicity via fashion blogs and forums. Evidently, Dior aims to harness the considerable power of the internet to publicise its wares and raise brand awareness globally.

With actresses featuring in fashion print advertisements (not least Cotillard herself chez Dior), it’s perhaps only natural that fashion will start to seep into film in a far more blatant manner than mere tacit endorsement say ShowStudio. In this film, despite Cotillard’s presence, the real star is the bag – whether it’s the cannage quilting echoed in the crosshatched girders of la Tour Eiffel, or the product itself literally taking centre-stage, clutched in Cotillard’s hand or shot still-life.

This first installment, Lady Noire, alludes to the eponymous film noir genre, aped in the plot of the short as well as its predominantly monochrome colour palette – and on a more basic level, the colour of the bag itself. The next installment, ‘Lady Rouge’, is slated to appear on a fashion blog near you later this year.
