Parisian fashion house Dior has unveiled an exclusive coloring and design for Hong Kong's iconic Star Ferry. Two white Dior flags flaunt on the front and back of the ferry in white livery.
The vessel is painted with Dior's Cannage cross patterns - the same ones that decorated the Lady Dior bag, which was given to Princess Diana in 1995 and was later named after her. The bag was first introduced by designer Gianfranco Ferré, who used Napoleon III's chairs as inspiration.
The Star Ferry was first launched in 1888. The ship specializes in transporting passengers across the Victoria Strait - a short voyage of a few minutes in length connects the islands of Hong Kong and Kowloon. Thanks to the low fare and picturesque views from on board, the ferry is very popular among tourists.
For Dior, this is not the first such project in recent times. Last year, the luxury brand raised its sails on one of Hong Kong’s historic 3-mast wooden Dukling boats for its Dioriviera campaign.
