For me the fact that it could be preppy is not so much the issue. Hedi’s last collection for Celine was, Michael Rider at Celine is also mostly that.
But it does feel fashion in those versions. Here the pieces aren’t exceptional on their own and surely not together.

I’m sorry but the look does really give « Congrès des Républicains à La Baule » (French political party). Nothing against them but as a fashionable look, it’s really not exciting…

JUST JARED

Why did he make an ugly version of Karl's Chanel? It is probably one of the most unfaltering silhouette that I have ever seen at Dior and if he insists on keeping the top, at least put some efforts to narrow the skirt like mermaid.

His womenswear accessories look very “Russian client” now.

sorry but they moved on to hermes and loro piana and miu miu years ago

Anya looks like a walking curtain with plastic flowers as ornaments for no reason at all.

That bodice…Ouch!
I’m unsure by the fabric! Is it Panne de Velours or Jacquard de soie or something else?
It needed a small belt from the same color as the dress and no flowers embroideries.

I’m just praying at this point that none of the Redcarpet looks we have seen so far is indicative of what we will see in one month for Couture.

But...at least this time he made four leaf clovers that are rare in nature...and in gold...

 

[Monsieur Cristobal]

The skills that went into the making of the bodice feel "shop-around-the-corner", not "atelier-in-Paris".
Dior, wake up, Haute Couture is approaching, and this won't do it.

Under MGC we have never seen such sloppy craftsmanship, just saying...and gaslighting you all LOL

 

[Ives927]

The so called “Great Fashion Reset”…polos, cargo pants, jeans, and celebs in poorly made dresses.

They should try unplugging and replugging it back in.

Don't forget the rugby shirts, generally not the most flattering garment on any woman, unless you're waifish and delicate, in which case, you could wear anything from the wide world of fashion and look great in it, so why opt for an overpriced rugby shirt that's not going to do that much for you?

There might be someone reading this who'd say fashion doesn't have to be flattering and that's true - but does any designer have the ability to translate a woman's rugby shirt into a piece of wearable art? Saying that, I don't think I even want to see it attempted.

Speaking of LG, the Dior jacket he wore to Venice was straight up Candice Bergen in Miss Congeniality lol

I've said it before and I'll say it again: they need to reconsider both the sheer number and the quality of their brand ambassadors. Maybe don't dress half of the celebrity world in mediocrity. Instead, focus on a small number of exceptionally designed and well-executed looks for a few truly standout individuals. Rethink the whole strategy...

Do people really care about seeing Anya Taylor-Joy, someone who, in my opinion, is a rather mediocre actress without a particularly strong personal sense of style, in yet another Dior misfire? At this point, she feels more recognizable as a Dior ambassador than as a serious actress. Beyond the financial incentive, I don't see how this benefits either party… especially when the results are so lackluster.

Dior is a rather relentless PR machine, and I suspect JWA may already be realizing that this supposed step-up in his career isn’t quite as rewarding as it might have seemed, including a level of critique he has hardly ever received at his Loewe.
