Christian Dior F/W 2024.25 Paris

I would like Lola to create a timeline of when these fashions hit the stores, so we can all plan our finances accordingly.

 

[Kennnnn]

I have nothing to say about the clothes. But I will say that the bags are very underwhelming.

Poor MG - I bet she’s tired. She’s just not capable of pumping out ideas at the pace that’s needed for such a house.

Maybe they’d benefit from bringing on a co-CD, so she can just focus on accessories.

 

[GoldenPetals]

It's very NICE.

And no, that's not a compliment.

 

[Salvatore]

She REFUSES to have good taste.

She REFUSES to have good taste.

You think it’s the problem here?
I think she has a very conventional taste. That’s the problem.
MaxMara seems very out there compared to DIOR!

 

[Nimsay]

Very conventional taste. A lot of this verges on Carolina Herrera level…

I think I have PTSD from a margeila short sleeve trench I bought that I only wore once bc I had no idea what to do with it after that one wear.

I think it is half of the problem. MISS DIOR hugely stenciled on pieces and those denim pieces ??? BAD.

 

[Alquimista]

The idea here can't be rejuvenating the pret a porter clientele, right? Cause all of this scream ladies who lunch. The taste is veeery conventional indeed. But I can't say I dislike it, I love some well made classics. I'm not a client tho, not even a potential one.

Tacky aesthetic by our MGC. She tried and failed

Wow, this is one of the worst Dior collections I have ever seen. So many unappealing cuts/patterns/combos. I am lost for words at how this was allowed to be shown.

MGC walked so Sabato could run

The font choice for "Miss Dior" -- wrong.
This collection was better than the other boring concepts we've seen; but still not the Dior we want or love. With the debut of "The New Look" on AppleTV+ digging into the history of Dior and the ties to war and survival, it feels like this could be a reflection of that; but the staging and collection doesn't connect for me. I will outright say, I have never liked Maria Grazia Chiuri as CD of this label; she's reversed the labels progression and knack for design theatricality. But, I sense that maybe they wanted a more simplistic approach, to keep it safe. I am definitely not the only one who feels this for Maria.

Decent showing, but nothing to be excited about.

Looks like Vienna’s fashion week… Something a 90-year-old man whose brand had a little bit of success in the 60s could do.

I have no words. She has zero talent. It’s crazy she’s doing this with the amazing archives Dior has.

At the end of the day it’s all about marketing I guess. Fashion doesn’t exist anymore.

 

[Cocteau Stone]

I'm just a little confused as to what this collection is trying to do, and whether or not trying to give it a creative intention was even worth it.

Some nice staples in here, in the classic MGC way. Great for clients, and great for the wardrobe when you want something that isn't so explicitly branded (except those dreadful Miss Dior prints). But you have the set, with the moaning track, with Bohan like looks that are at different ends from the start to the end evening looks, juvenile cast... To do so much for something like this is just pointless and a waste of money.

Honestly, I'm really confused by the set. What does it have to do with the collection.

 

[jeanclaude]

Dior-partment Store...feels like a permanent collection of basics on a budget.

I was expecting a "WE SHOULD ALL BE MISS DIOR" t-shirt at the end though...

 

[Scotty]

Not the iconic Chanel soundtrack on this!

Anyway, when JG did Miss Dior printed stuff it was charming and youthful, this is just not it.

 

[Nimsay]

a ‘we should be all miss dior’ shirt sounds way more interesting than any other that has been shown.

How do you guys know the soundtrack? are you saying its the exact same song-for-song as Chanel?

 

[Frederic01]

The most interesting things coming from Dior these days is the archival gowns that are recreated for actresses ie Carey Mulligan, Anya Taylor Joy etc.

Maria Grazia is a non event at the moment. She had her peak when she first arrived at the house but now the energy is all gone. She is tired, we are tired, everybody is tried.
