Christian Dior S/S 2026 Paris

[Salvatore]

I don't hate it nor do I love it. It's just there. Maybe it will grow on me eventually.

Was it standing ovation worthy tho? 🤔

I feel we’ve lost our minds somehow.

This whole season has been about people losing their minds from versace to this. We Haven't seen anything genius this whole time.

 

[Caffeine]

Until Nicholas and Haider punched in for work.

 

[brandon J pierre]

Yeah..It lacks glamour. The fresh face the casual hair brings everything down. The Dior lady is made up, painted, dress up. The hats are crazy but they are right in the end. Lol

The white flat lightning is very unflattering. Most models look crazy or sick.

Yes let's get dressed up , not go to the supermarket, also the video did not help. Imagine showing all of that glamour , and then you produce this.

 

[Fiercification]

It's fine. I can see some attempts to elevate the approach he's become so accustomed to delivering image wise at Loewe, but ultimately there's not enough to distinguish it from said brand for me. Perhaps less conviction, but it is his first outing at a new and colossal brand.

My bigger problem is how lifeless the presentation looks, perhaps due to the casting. He needs to inject some more personality into that department. Dare I say perhaps Ashley is not the right CD to help him do that and leave his comfort zone in terms of the woman he envisions walking his shows.

jonathan's first dior collection was a bit confusing to me. i think his debut for couture will be much better but heres one of my favorite looks:

Same, same. Not convincing. A lot of things felt wrong: the set design, the lightning, certainly the casting too, many looks. It was also too juvenile as a whole, particularly those mini-skirts.
The delicate florals and the powdered palette worked great in his menswear because they added a touch of feminity on masculine clothes, here, in the context of womenswear, they just look too girly.
Dior is more mature imho.

 

[Cocteau Stone]

Yeah it’s pretty meek. I see more Nicolas for LV and his last few years at Loewe than Dior. But after seeing so much of his vision already on celebs I’m not really enthused. It exists. I’ll wait for couture to really see what he’s got.

 

[nationalsalt]

^ you see it as an homage ?

I saw it more like everything that was done before is now put and sealed in a box and lets have a clean state hence the white screen and the first look being white because the only thing that matters is JWA’s vision.

Galliano having the most screen time means that it is his tenure that needed the most to be sealed.

It's possible that seeing their work put me in a good mood and made my perception of the montage more positive haha.

The dominant silhouette is a very short skirt with a blouse buttoned up high in the neck, a Regency style collar or fastened with a bow; and stiletto pumps. And then a sharp blazer on top (actually quite Dior Homme in cut and proportion).

This is not a bad look, but it's neither fresh nor new, and not very Dior at all.

 

[jeanclaude]

I only liked this grey jacket (but after shortening the black long ribbon). If he only used that jacket as a blueprint for the whole collection..

Too much basic denim, to give it a casual look...but the result is trashy and cheap. His usual avant-gardish antics clashes with Dior classic sophistication.

Also those stupid hats...reminds me of the "tricornio" hat Spanish Guardia Civil (Police) uses in parades:

[PierreGotha]

This debut is devoid of glamour and aspiration, which the house of Dior is synonymous with. However, this direction is not necessarily vulgarized because of it. There are great and whimsical pieces that played around with the House's heritage.

JWA's take and tone should be expected, and I'm not entirely surprised that this collection looks the way it does. LVMH wants another form of success with Dior, and JWA is somehow suitable to inflame its flailing grace.

He is not Galliano or Lee McQueen, but the house is in much better reign now than previously.

 

[Olaffo]

Bags and shoes and accessories will sell and let's hope commercial department will translate collection into something stylish and wearable. Decent debut and happy this overhyped anticipation is finally over...All I care about is HC in January and that's that.

 

[heyjaded]

I liked a lot of things and also disliked many others. But at least it was more exciting than MGC (yes the bar is low, I know). I think those bags will be a hit.

 

[brandon J pierre]

After a million years of untalented MGC’s this is very welcomed. Not in love but not bad.

after that today , i'm not taking any more maria disrespect. Let's see where this all leads in three years.

 

[brandon J pierre]

I like a lot of things in this collection , but it just feels childish,

 

[Jacque Marcel]

It’s cute

 

[donyan]

there are a lot of great things, my favourite being the black jacket with cut-out sides, but although far more exciting than Maria Grazia’s Dior it feels far less like Dior if that makes sense. Raf Simon’s work had that experimental bent too but it still felt like Dior. I’m curious as to what he’s doing next

 

[plentyofhorns]

Ugly as f lol sorry if it didn’t say Dior on the tag I’m pretty sure most women wouldn’t go near it.
