Wallets are among the most desired accessories for all women. And there is nothing like a good bag to highlight any look, especially when it comes to the design of one of the most prestigious brands. One of the most iconic wallets? Without a doubt, the Lady Dior, by Christian Dior. The bag became superpopular in the late 1990s thanks to Princess Diana, whom we saw her carry on many occasions. In fact, he was baptized with that name in honor of the Princess of Wales. It is precisely this design that today has a Latin touch.

Thanks to the Dior Lady Art project, which recruits artists from different parts of the world to translate their art into popular bags, the Mexican architect and artist Eduardo Terrazas had the opportunity to illustrate his original ideas in the iconic design.

“This was one of the first drawings that I did as in l974. This was a language that I made with the idea of the cosmos. When you get in here it seems that you are truly in the cosmos. All these structures, lines, colors give you a language to be able to say what you want to say,”says Terrazas in an exclusive interview with Dior. “I have made more than 300 images playing as children play with these lines, with these colors. Like an architecture, you see a wall and you say, 'oh, I want to do something on that wall.' So I want to do something in that Dior bag."

The artist had the opportunity to make three designs, all with brightly colored geometric figures on top of a white base, not forgetting the distinctive design of the popular bag and the brand's initial logos.

This is the fourth year that Dior has carried out this project in which this year they included 11 artists from around the world, with Terrazas being the only Latino.
