Go back to the origins. Of culture, of civilization, of the history of the maison itself Dior. Maria Grazia Chiuri rewinds the tape of time, letting the pressing footsteps of modern Greek goddesses dictate it now.
Ash and sneakers become the protagonists, only apparently jarring, of this statuesque marathon stretched between past and present, between myth and reality, which is consumed along the ring of Panathinaiko Stadium of Athens. In that race steeped in symbolism, aimed at reconstructing – not out of nostalgia, but almost out of gratitude – that time nestled in every corner, marble or groove that embraces the slow unveiling of Cruise 2022, there is everything.

There is a reference to the first trip to the land of the myth of Monsieur Dior in 1951 and to the almost sacral shooting at the foot of the Parthenon. There is Chiuri’s very personal genealogy, his studies, his own imprinting. There are all the stylistic codes of the maison, stitched up between the intangibility of draped fabrics, the whiteness of the marble white, the fluidity of skirts and dresses sculpted by the gold of the accessories, the houndstooth that rings in silver tones and becomes maxi in timeless black and white, designs that come out of classic time and mix with surrealistic, metaphysical reinterpretations.
The stadium revives, thus becoming the keeper of a new tireless agony of influences, couture archetypes, suggestions. The stella by Monsieur Dior returns to shine under the soles of shoes, as if to indicate the way to take, and becomes fabric and motif at the same time on dresses, pants, outerwear. There jacket Bar becomes the backbone of the milky suit, bags and accessories give voice to lettering moderate, yet speaking. Splashes of cobalt blue, like a blue thread, pay homage to the host land, while the sumptuousness of the peplos plays on the same pitch as sports pieces, as if it were a match on equal terms, where everything is allowed, without distinction of any kind, genre. The references to the Olympic disciplines, at home here, mix with the sacredness of the new time that is reborn.
And that bursts onto the scene with all its strength.
