Recently, Dior presented its Spring/Summer 2022 haute couture collection at the Rodin Museum in Paris. Unlike the past extravagant displays, this season the brand used giant embroidered carpets to decorate the venue, clearly stating the theme for this collection: embroidery.
Maria Grazia Chiuri collaborated with Indian artists Madhvi and Manu Parekh, Chanakya Atelier, and Chanakya School of Craft this time, transforming their embroidery works with the exquisite skills of 380 embroiderers, totaling 280,000 hours. These embroidered pieces were displayed at the show venue, creating a clever connection between artists, workshops, and fashion designers.
Looking back at the clothing itself, Maria Grazia Chiuri once again focuses on embroidery, using low-saturation black, white, and gray tones throughout the entire collection of 64 outfits, highlighting the craftsmanship of embroidery with simple colors.
The opening is led by a series of one-shoulder designs, with tight-fitting bodysuits adorned with crystal beads swaying with each step, or blending seamlessly with lightweight chiffon.
Next up are the styles of daily suits, created from high-quality fabrics to build a wardrobe of daily suits: a casual black suit adorned with leather materials, a Bar jacket suit that outlines the figure without any sense of restraint, is a comfortable and stylish look.
Returning to glamorous evening wear, with nude tones as the main focus, the embroidery highlights the ethereal beauty of Dior. The subtle white transparent silk, with a sense of neatness, showcases the graceful figure of women. As the body moves, simple cuts of clothing become extraordinary, exuding charm in every way. This is the captivating allure of haute couture.
