ABOUT OUR COLLECTIONS

Dear visitors, 

After the success of "A History of Fashion", our second collections tour will open to the public in June 2023.

This next collections tour will be an opportunity for you to discover a new history of fashion, from the 18th century to the present day, through our exceptional collections presented in a new theme dedicated to the body in motion.

The link between fashion and sport will be the subject of the second display of this new collections tour, echoing the Olympic Games that will be held in Paris in 2024.

In 2017, the artistic direction of Dior changed radically with the appointment of Maria Grazia Chiuri, the first woman to hold this position since the birth of the fashion house. For her first ready-to-wear collection, she presents a t-shirt printed with the phrase "We should all be feminists", after the eponymous essay by Nigerian feminist author Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.

The scope of this t-shirt will take on an international dimension on January 21, 2017, during the "March for Women", condemning violence against women and the inauguration of the President of the United States, Donald Trump. Nathalie Portman made a poignant speech on this occasion wearing this Dior t-shirt, which was immediately relayed by all social networks. The success was such that Dior will donate a profit for each sale of this t-shirt to the Clara Lionel Foundation for the education, health and protection of young people around the world.

This flexible and fluid ensemble is the antithesis of the strangled waist and pigeon-like throats imposed by Christian Dior's new look in 1947. However, Maria Grazia Chiuri takes up the scope and the embroideries' sophistication of the Dior skirts that she creates in light tulle, representing here the astrological constellations, themes dear to her.
