Despite the chilly winter weather in the City of Lights, fashion enthusiasts flocked to the Dior Fall Winter 2024 women’s ready-to-wear show held in Paris. The event took place in a massive white box-like structure set amidst the picturesque Jardin des Tuileries. As guests entered, they were greeted by a bamboo installation, designed by Indian artist Shakuntala Kulkarni under the creative direction of Maria Grazia Chiuri.
Front-row attendees, including Jennifer Lawrence and Anya Taylor-Joy, exuded elegance as they awaited the show to begin. Other notable guests included Maisie Williams, Elizabeth Debicki, Monica Barbaro, and Kelly Rutherford, all dressed in chic Dior attire. Korean actress and singer Jisoo also graced the event with her presence.
Behind the scenes, Dior’s head of makeup, Peter Phillips, shared insights into the beauty looks for the show, inspired by Maria Grazia Chiuri’s vision. Models were prepped with skincare using Dior’s Capture Totale Le Sérum, followed by makeup featuring the Dior Forever Skin Glow foundation and the Dior Addict Lip Glow Oil 000 Universal Clear.
As the runway show commenced, Chiuri’s collection showcased silhouettes adorned with “Miss Dior” branding, paying homage to the late 1960s fashion era. The color palette ranged from trench coat beige to vibrant hues of white, orange, pink, and neon green. Using luxurious fabrics like gabardine and double cashmere, the collection featured coats, jackets, dresses, and skirts embellished with beads and embroidery, symbolizing women’s empowerment and their continued influence on fashion.
Drawing inspiration from Gabriella Crespi, an influential artist and designer of the era, Chiuri emphasized the determination of women to assert themselves through their work. The collection celebrated the intersection of music, art, fashion, and architecture during the late 1960s, embodying a spirit of liberation and creativity.
