A
n invitation to enchantment and escape, the Dioriviera capsule collection exudes the perfect summer.
Dreamed up by Maria Grazia Chiuri, Creative director of Christian Dior, expect Toile de Jouy Sauvage aplenty in this summery-meets-sumptuous collection. Central to the color palette are delicate, soft pastel pink and pale grey hues, famously the founding couturier’s favorite shade. And the print is both playful and exotic, donning tigers, monkeys, and reptiles. Here, the print and the tones have been applied to ready-to-wear clothing and more, from dresses to swimsuits as well as a whole host of accoutrements; after all, Dior is loved for its accessories. This updated classic motif adorns everything from accessories for the active, cue table tennis rackets, yoga mats, pétanque balls, dumbbells, and even Finnish skittles. Then there are homewares, including embroidered cushions, candles, dessert plates, and the beach must-haves in the form of Dior deckchairs, parasols, and surfboards; it is the most stylish way to hit the beach. Calling all Dior loyalists, for those who want an updated version of their timeless items, Toile de Jouy Sauvage can also be found on the Lady Dior and Dior Book Tote bags, the fine silk scarves, and pumps—all providing a way to insert a contemporary classic into your wardrobe, whilst nodding to the House’s most beloved pieces. The Dioriviera capsule is a true ode to the art of living, the European way, and by the beach.
