DIOR has debuted their Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2023 Collection. Maria Grazia Chiuri, Creative Director of Dior women’s lines, was inspired in particular by Josephine Baker, the singer and dancer who left the United States in the mid-1920s for a multi-creative Paris. Iconic, glamorous, and committed, she embodies the modernity of those years, the mixing of cultures and shared experiences that notably animated the vibrant world of cabaret, from New York to the City of Light.
