The enduring Dior Medallion is less a motif than a portal into design history. As early as 1947, oval-backed Médaillon chairs brought a Louis XVI-inspired elegance to Dior runways, seating the era’s style intelligentsia as they watched the New Look be unveiled. The seal has seen many reinventions in the decades since—and for Fall/Winter 2026, the golden Medallion brings an easy elegance to jacquard bucket bags and lambskin loafers.
Ahead, get a closer look at Dior’s Medallion story for the season.
