A Stunning Loss for Moschino and Luxury Brands with Heart: Davide Renne Leaves Our Earth
/
With Her ‘Plan de Paris’ Dior Vision, Maria Grazia Chiuri Triples Dior Revenues in 7 Years
/
Clearly the archival map print has achieved major status at Dior, as it rolls forward into fall with a major campaign.
Dior’s Maria Grazia Chiuri is simply the best of the luxury brand story tellers. On Monday, the creative director was profiled in WWD with that rare breakdown of financial information for a LVMH brand. I knew Dior has done very well, but not that Chiuri has tripled the Dior business in less than seven years. That’s extraordinary.
Tonight, October 24, WWD will present Chiuri with its John B. Fairchild Honor at an awards ceremony in New York City.
Can you imagine how much impact the ‘Plan de Paris’ print will have with the Paris 2024 Olympics? It’s so exciting to see a female creative director have such huge financial impact on one of the world’s premier luxury brands. Bravo Maria Grazia Chiuri!! You are an inspiration for us all. Thank you! ~ Anne

The Christian Dior Spring 2023 Campaign celebrates femininity, power and grace, as explored through the eye and lens of frequent Dior photographer Brigitte Niedermair [IG].
Models include Carla Pereira, Freja Rothmann, Jen Thomson, Sherry Shi, and Stella Lucia.
Preparing for the season, Chiuri discovered a map of Paris in the Dior archives, one that put Avenue Montaigne at its center, even though the street doesn’t represent the actual center of the city.
In short order, the map became a focal print for the spring 2023 collection — a maverick toile de Jouy print that is a sophisticated addition to Dior’s already rich use of toile de Jouy.
Old World unique artistry and needlework inspire the Dior spring 2023 collection, and raffia is used to maximum advantage. Beautiful raffia coats are decorated with delicate flowers and birds, also in play on the accessories. The embroidery work is spectacular.
