BEIJING—Christian Dior apologized on Thursday after Chinese consumers criticized the French luxury brand for using a map of China that excluded Taiwan. What set the French luxury brand apart from a long list of Western brands that have angered Beijing in recent weeks and months: Dior’s map of China didn’t appear on a product or a website, but rather in a closed-door presentation to college students. Dior is owned by LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton.
