Details
Released in 2010, Lady Blue Shanghai is a short film by David Lynch created for Dior’s Lady Dior campaign. Set in the Park Hyatt Shanghai, the film stars Marion Cotillard and follows a surreal narrative in which a mysterious handbag appears in a hotel room, triggering fragmented memories of a past love. Lynch’s direction transforms the luxury object into a symbol of time, loss, and desire—melding dream logic, noir atmosphere, and emotional disorientation. With minimal dialogue, hypnotic pacing, and a self-composed score, the film is a rare intersection of cinema and fashion that transcends commercial intent.
