DIOR PRESENTS THE CAMPAIGN FOR THE SPRING-SUMMER 2021 READY-TO-WEAR COLLECTION

Symbols of a committed reflection on fashion’s origins and the significance of the cut, Spring-Summer 2021 ready-to-wear looks by Maria Grazia Chiuri are revealed in a series of striking photographs. Celebrating excellence in savoir-faire and creation in all its forms – from Virginia Woolf’s feminist essays to militant collages by Lucia Marcucci that enhanced the staging of the show –, the collection is captured in a campaign brimming with the unique power of painting. Inspired by Caravaggio’s mastery of chiaroscuro, these photos highlight silhouettes with an almost sacred aura of mystery, like icons in a painting, punctuated with shimmering shades of blue, red and gold. Captured by the photographer Elina Kechicheva, these images sublimate Dior codes reinvented with a new language, combining precious embroideries with paisley motifs and floral designs that blossom on dresses and trousers, as well as the essential * Dior BookTote.* Light, fluid pieces take on the deep blue of denim, while the revisited men’s shirt is combined with the *Dior Palto* jacket, freeing movement with grace and elegance, alongside the irresistible *Dior Caro* bag. Virtuoso compositions that reveal and exalt the infinite possibilities of the art of couture.
