The Christian Dior pre-fall 2023 collection is here. See every look:
At the end of a year when traveling shows and cross-cultural collaborations are the mania of the moment, it’s eye-opening to know that Christian Dior—founded by a visionary couturier with a zeal for getting on planes and boats to show his collections to the women of the world— was making publicity splashes here, there, and everywhere, decades before anyone else. In 1964, it was India.
The results, when you peer around her rather dark lookbook, combine richness and light-touch modern simplicity, and are far more about a real and lasting engagement than a one-off trip around a national theme or an excursion into history. The cross-cultural creative interplay has yielded a collection that adapts traditional shapes and material techniques to the female fashion-think that Chiuri has brought to Dior. “I like it that every woman can transform things for herself. Every piece you can wear in a different way. You can mix daywear and evening wear.”
Other silhouettes borrow their chic minimalism from Indian menswear—pristine white collarless shirts as layering pieces, the eternal Christian Dior ‘Bar’ jacket remade with a Nehru collar. Part of Chiuri’s mission—her subtle breakaway with the past—is to do away with corseting. “My work is sometimes not so visible,” she said. “I have a problem with clothes that are not comfortable. To me, the important thing is how clothes feel on the body.
