BTS | Dior Haute Couture Spring/ Summer 2020

Creative Director, Maria Grazia Chiuri, continues to explore the complexity between feminism and femininity for Dior Haute Couture Spring/ Summer 2020. In referencing classical, feminine silhouettes from ancient Greece, like the peplos, Chiuri personifies a modern-day Athena. Following the natural drape and curvature of the figure, Maria then adds structure in typical Dior fashion. The collection’s motifs include golden, wholesome ears of wheat, to once again glorify the essence of women. Paired with the collection was an installation by American artist Judy Chicago, entitled “The Female Divine.” The seamless joining of Chicago and Chiuri poses the question: _“What if Women Ruled the World?”_ View BTS below: ![DIOR_HAUTE COUTURE_SPRING-SUMMER_2020__BACKSTAGE__©INES
