DIOR AFTER DARK
Style is often informed by the past..
The saying goes “out with the old, in with the new” but with decades of Dior inspiring the next, the new cannot exist without the old.Style is often informed by the past. It is refreshed, repeated and reinvented in today’s language. And in Dior’s case, the DNA of this house is ever-present across the years and their creative minds.Traditional house codes are now translated for the modern woman whilst always staying true to their rich heritage. They seamlessly blend classic details with a modern twist. The iconic Bar silhouette is given a new look (pun intended) when paired with a sleek bralette and chunky sneakers. Think the classic carnage structure of a Lady Dior bag now worn with a thick guitar strap and daring attitude. Adding modern statement jewellery and today’s most coveted accessory, a bucket hat to a traditional blazer and skirt combo invented by Mr Dior himself.It’s about breaking up the expected with refreshing contrasts and a cutting edge. A kind of fluidity between elegance and masculinity. As we bring the old with the new, signature stamps in the history of Dior are reinvigorated. It is a fresh and bold pairing that still remains so timeless and classic in its delivery…PHOTOGRAPHY SHAUN LYLE
