Dior welcomes Mikey Madison as the Maison’s new ambassador

Oscar-winning actress Mikey Madison joins Dior as a global ambassador, marking the beginning of the new creative era led by Jonathan Anderson.

Dior has officially announced Mikey Madison as its new global ambassador, the first appointment under the creative direction of Jonathan Anderson, who now oversees the Maison’s womenswear, menswear, and haute couture collections. The news arrives at a strategic moment, just ahead of Anderson’s highly anticipated debut at Paris Fashion Week on 1 October.

Madison’s rise has been both meteoric and formidable. Her leading role in Sean Baker’s Anora — winner of the Palme d’Or at Cannes 2024 — earned her the Academy Award for Best Actress in 2025, cementing her status as one of the most influential performers of her generation. This connection to the world of art and cinema brings Dior an authentic and powerful narrative.

“Mikey Madison is an incredibly talented actress. Her empathetic approach perfectly reflects the spirit of Maison Dior, and I am thrilled to be collaborating with her,” Anderson said in a statement.

For her part, Madison expressed her excitement at this new chapter: “I am so proud and honoured to be joining Dior just as this new era begins under Jonathan’s creative direction. I am inspired by his way of storytelling through fashion and the originality with which he reinvents each collection.”

With her appointment, Madison not only embodies Dior’s renewed vision but also heralds a narrative where artistic sensibility and personal charisma take centre stage. Under Anderson’s leadership, the Maison opens a chapter in which fashion dialogues with cinema, emotion, and authenticity.
