Rachele Regini opens the door to her first-floor Chelsea apartment in London, situated on a quiet, leafy square between the stylish boutiques of King’s Road and the upmarket furniture shops of Brompton Cross. The bright space is filled with tributes to her close-knit family, including a series of beautiful black and white portraits of Regini with her mother, Dior’s artistic director Maria Grazia Chiuri, that hang in the hallway. “We’re spending even more time together,” Regini says, referring to her new role working alongside Chiuri as an advisor to the Dior creative studio. “My job is to make sure that all our ideas about gender, cultural appropriation, and the academic side of what my mother decides to incorporate into the collections are well-researched.”
