Maria Grazia Chiuri revisits the early 1960s, and creates a new lexicon for the present times, inviting us to shine. Boxy jackets, color block and cutting-edge minimalism.

For Dior spring-summer 2022 women’s ready-to-wear collection Maria Grazia Chiuri revisits the early 1960s, etching out the contours of change and formulating a new lexicon for a world still reeling from the pandemic. She explores Marc Bohan’s long tenure as Creative Director of Dior focusing on the Slim Look collection, presented in 1961 and described by the fashion press as follows: “It completely changes fashion, just as the New Look did in 1947.”
Chiuri’s knows something about creating a dreamworld nourished by curiosity, desire, and research. A lot of research.
SS22 silhouettes are characterised by boxy cut jackets, refined coats, skirts, Bermudas, shorts, and dresses, combined in multiple contrasts. Colors are key to the collection concept as each piece is transposed in yellow, green, red, navy, orange, and raspberry, giving Bohan’s aesthetic a color block spin. From clothes to scenography, color keeps being central as Maria Grazia Chiuri turns to artist Anna Paparatti to conceive show absurdist spatial geometries. Pop and minimal. This collection reminds us that clothes are made to inhabit the space and invites us to shine and perform ourselves on the stage of our life.
