While the designer brings her own inspirations and sensibilities to the brand, Lawrence's own work and advocacy are seemingly a perfect match for Dior's unapologetically feminist direction. The actress has been quite vocal in her championing of womanhood and pursuit for gender equality: In 2015 she spoke out about the pay gap in Hollywood, w riting an essay about it for Lena Dunham’s Lenny Letter and discussing her personal take on feminism with Harper's Bazaar. "I don't know why that word [feminism] is so scary to people; it shouldn't be, because it just means equality," she told the magazine. "If we are moving forward in a society, you are feeling stronger as a woman, and you want to be taken more seriously. You don't have to take away the wonderful traits that come with being a woman: We are sensitive. We are pleasers. We're empathetic. All those things that can keep you from asking for what you want or making mistakes."
