“The Dior 2018-2019 winter show” brought a cool breeze to under the burning summer sun of Paris earlier this week. In Maria Grazia Chiuri’s atelier, the impressive lines of Dior also cames to life.

The atelier as a place where the continuity of tradition and the work done there gives a meditative timelessness, and where the innovation those things engender simultaneously puts it at the cutting edge. For the Autumn-Winter 2018-2019 Haute Couture collection, #MariaGraziaChiuri paid tribute to all this, kicking things off with a midnight blue combination of belted vest and skirt topped with a spiral-sleeve bolero, the result balancing the heritage of Dior with the reality of a modern woman’s life. #DiorCouture

All to applaud the increasingly good Maria Grazia Chiuri, creative director of the legendary maison engaged in a difficult and challenging cultural operation on haute couture to bring ever higher the value of custodian of the great tradition of the atelier and their necessary projection towards the future. “I did not use the archive but the memory of the archive, Maria Grazia Chiuri explains in the backstage after the applaus. Only in high fashion you can do certain things, use tailor made fabrics, work on the volumes and body of customers to build them Today we are too closed in the present and the fashion is too fast.Here with this high fashion collection you want to do an educational operation to explain what’s inside and behind a dress, what’s in addition to embroidery as everything is complicated and magical “.
