If there was such thing as a perfect summer collab, this Rixo x Dragon Diffusion capsule would come pretty close. And for those of us mapping out our summer plans (and the wardrobe to go with them), this news could not be more timely.
Launching in the coming weeks, beloved London-based label Rixo will be dropping a small capsule with cult basket bag brand Dragon Diffusion and we already know it will fly off shelves.
The Rixo girly probably already carries a Dragon Diffusion bag on holiday in Greece, but this collab sees the two cult labels weave together their love for timeless designs and craftsmanship to create a capsule of seven modern handbags and belts.

Rixo, founded by Henrietta Rix and Orlagh McCloskey, has been building up a loyal following for their relaxed, vintage-inspired dresses for the last decade, becoming the go-to for garden party frocks and wedding guest dresses. Meanwhile, Belgian handbag brand Dragon Diffusion by Craig Wright has been seen on the arms of every It girl who flock to the brand for their handwoven leather bags.
For this collaboration, Dragon Diffusion’s classic shapes are reimagined into more rounded styles and available in three rich colourways—green, tan and black that pair perfectly with Rixo’s floral-splashed dresses. We could just see ourselves lounging on a picnic blanket in a polka dotted Rixo dress and the Amoria handbag at our feet with daffodils spilling out.

Further marrying the DNA of both labels, the capsule will include a 1970s inspired leather belt available in black and brown, inspired by a vintage gem discovered by Rixo co-founder Orlagh.
“We’re proud to collaborate with Dragon Diffusion at such an exciting time of accessory expansion for Rixo,” says Orlagh. “I’ve long admired the brand’s dedication to artisanal craft, authenticity, and modern sophistication. The vintage-inspired bags and belts are perfect for warm-weather days and designed to be loved season after season.”
The Rixo x Dragon Diffusion collection is available to pre-order online from Friday, May 2 and to buy from Monday, May 12.
