Dior Fall Winter 2016

Dior Fall Winter 2016

Silhouette nere prendono vita come su fogli di carta bianca. Nella nuova collezione Dior autunno inverno 2016 domina il nero, ma anche gli inserti colorati, i motivi, le stampe in un mix ispirato. Dior racconta di una femminilità in movimento che si destreggia in una giungla urbana. Di una donna eccentrica e seducente che si diverte a giocare con il suo fascino tra scollature e drappeggi. Bellissimi anche gli accessori, in particolare le borse che sembrano maxi portafogli.

The collection: black silhouettes as crisp as the sheets of white paper on which they spring to life: dense, textured, embroidered and quilted. There follow hand-painted dévoré velvets, re-colored jacquards inspired by one of Monsieur Dior’s iconic sketches – the one of the Ice-Cream dress –, fragments of color, embroidered motifs atop prints, a touch of leopard.

Everything lies in the mix and the compilation. Looks etch out the contours of femininity in movement, capturing the electric attitude of a rebellious Parisienne on a mission to master untamed territory. Eccentric, whimsical, adorned. She is seductive. Assertive. Fun-loving.

Necklines play on sensual allure; the shoulder is draped, concealed or laid bare; a flash of skin without false modesty. Volumes and silhouettes emerge from the sway of a line, a stylistic circumlocution. The influence of men’s tailoring and work clothes accentuate the determined stride of an urban jungle explorer. Peplums are asymmetrical and sometimes exaggerated; large pockets on workwear and wide, buttoned martingales offer up a new interpretation of the lines on the Bar suit. Dior silhouettes with generous volumes define the Dior woman’s new reality, one that is free and dynamic, current and intuitive.
Accessories: seemingly mobile rings; multi-clip ear jewelry. Handbags like scaled-up wallets have multiple compartments, and are paired with cross-body sunglasses cases. A new Dior icon: a bag entirely embroidered or in exotic leather, ostrich, crocodile and lizard mixed together to create an aesthetic friction.
