Though we see it now as one of the classic recurring motifs used by Dior, the cannage pattern has an interesting history. The pattern, which was inspired by the caning of the Napoléan III style gilded chairs that Christian Dior sat his guests on during his early shows, first appeared in Dior’s FW51 haute couture collection. But it wasn’t until 1995 that the cannage was elevated to the legendary status it courts today when it was used to decorate the famed Lady Dior handbag.

Now, in a tribute to the iconic pattern, the Dior SS24 collection (Jones’ fifth anniversary at the House) makes plentiful reference to the cannage. The signature design is featured on sweaters in captivating hues – beige, pink and grey – and harrington jackets. It appears on the tweed Saddle Twin and on the Dior Charm. On foot, it is featured on Buffalo Loafers and B9s sneakers. Even on jewellery, it appears in a series of organic pieces, combined with marble, silver, and freshwater pearls.
