The Turkish label, which has been a member of the Arab Fashion Week since the start of the pandemic, presented its Fall 2022 collection titled “Welcome to the 2999” on Tuesday via a futuristic fashion film illustrating the hi-tech direction of the brand. A major highlight of the collection was the use of Graphene Denim, developed in collaboration with Orta Anadolu Denim, which is a new, biodegradable textile material that serves as a conductor of heat and electricity. The future-forward brand also utilized artificial leather made out of apple pulp and cotton produced by biodynamic agriculture in its new offering.

Maria Grazia Chiuri didn’t plan to show her latest
Dior ready-to-wear collection on International Women’s Day – despite how well it fits the narrative she has built at that esteemed house, investigating and celebrating a different type of femininity than that which first made Dior world-famous. During the ongoing lockdowns of the Covid-19 pandemic, it seems nothing is certain: until three weeks before, she had intended to show her collection to a live audience, which first became impossible. Then technical difficulties delayed the unveiling of the film created in its place, shot in the hallowed, baroque Galerie des Glaces – Hall of Mirrors – of the Palace of Versailles – instead of Dior’s usual early slot in Paris fashion week, it was pushed back. Meaning it coincided with a day coded with meaning, chiming with Chiuri’s feminine and feminist modus operandi at Dior.

Dior unveils fairytale-inspired autumn 2021 collection Chloe Street
Maria Grazia Chiuri unveiled a Dior autumn/ winter 2021 collection today inspired by the world of fairy tales.
Filmed in the Palace of Versailles’ Hall of Mirrors, the digital runway spectacle was full of frothy frocks and layered tulle gowns fit for a princess.
The signature Bar jacket was reworked in the House’s signature Cannage motif, while a red hooded cape looked ready to run from the Big Bad Wolf. A sense of a childhood innocence was conveyed via prim schoolgirl-like white collars, satin headbands, black broderie anglaise pinafores, and white knee-length socks.
