Dior Cruise 2026 Collection
Dior Cruise 2026 Credits: Dior This cruise collection is the autobiographical synthesis of a moment in time. A temporal place where the act of imagination unfolds; in a certain bella confusione* that refers to the title proposed by Ennio Flaiano to Federico Fellini for his film 8 ½ . The scene is set in Rome, whose history is dappled with images from the cinema, theater, fashion, and art. Dior Cruise 2026 Credits: Dior Our history. For Maria Grazia Chiuri, Creative Director of Dior women’s lines, it was her encounter with Mimì Pecci-Blunt, a charismatic 20th-century figure of the Eternal City, Paris, and New York, that served as a commencement. Entering Mimì’s universe and deciding to bring it back to life through a Bal de l’Imagination, one of the balls she used to organize, engenders a visual fusion of all the arts. Disguise, to break the rules and free us from ourselves. Crossing the blurred line, both real and figurative, between living characters and ghosts. A profusion of luminous friendships. The ensemble comprises metaphorical pieces, the clothing elements from the history of fashion and costume merging with a contemporary syntax. Vests, taken from the men’s wardrobe and sometimes featuring lapels, accompany long, full skirts paired with tailcoats. The dresses are in very fine lace or contrasted with bas-relief patterns.
