Since she was appointed creative director in 2016, Maria Grazia Chiuri has looked to infuse a sense of modernity into the traditional pillars of Christian Dior. She has persisted—and largely succeeded— in bringing fresh light to the house through an unabashed pursuit of championing the strong and feminine. Sharp lines, houndstooth prints and luxurious, flowy tulle are just three of the design tropes that have become synonymous with the Italian designer.
For Dior’s spring/summer 2024 ready-to-wear collection, Chiuri once again looked at redefining the contemporary woman, this time through an introspective on the relationship between the past and the future. The show took place at the tranquil Jardin des Tuileries, Dior’s trademark location, a picturesque enclave situated between the Louvre and Place de la Concorde in Paris. As always, it proved dreamy and idyllic, a sharp contrast to the graphic set that awaited show attendees.
