1967 was the year in which the Miss Dior line was born: the Maison’s first prêt-a-porter collection, designed by Marc Bohan together with his right-hand man Philippe Guibourgé. In September of the same year, Marc Bohan opened the Maison’s first ready-to-wear store in Paris. The new line was aimed at a young clientele, it was designed for a new generation.
This represents a turning point in fashion, a moment of transition into a new approach to clothing, as the crafts involved in Haute Couture evolved into methods that would allow for the serial production of clothing. Thus the Miss Dior collection opens up the possibility of reproducing a garment, and shapes in a modern way the woman’s body.
The collection immediately became popular and many celebrities, such as Sofia Loren or actress Annie Buron-Fosse appeared wearing the Miss Dior line in major magazines editorials like Vogue.

And it’s a wrap! Thank you to the 72 beautiful girls who walked the @dior show today
The research that the Indian artist Shakuntala Kulkarni has been carrying out since the early 2000s is based on the themes of power and vulnerability. The creation of armours for women is meant to protect the body from the social and patriarchal constraints intrinsic to the traditional social and domestic system.
I was particularly fascinated by these armours- they defend the female body while caging it, hindering its freedom.
I am very happy to have had the opportunity to collaborate with @shakuntala.kulkarni for the installation hosting today’s @dior Autumn Winter 2025 show.

“A boutique called Miss Dior – after the perfume – will open next September on rue François Premier, next to the couture house. […] ‘The young don’t want fittings – they want to rush in and grab what they like, pay and rush out’, said Guiborge”. In this way, the New York Times chronicled this new type of fashion, aimed at a younger “Miss Dior”, leading to the use, for the first time, of ephemeral objects, such as shopping bags and signs.

Standing alongside @shakuntala.kulkarni in the beautiful installation she created for the @dior Autumn Winter 2025 ready-to-wear show curated by @maria_alicata and @ugolinip.
The strength and protection her cane armours emanate make us reflect on the role of the female body in relation to space, I was very happy to collaborate with such a great artist to present this season’s collection.
For the show installation, Indian artist @shakuntala.kulkarni presents a series of sculpture-armours made of cane, a flexible, elastic material. The reed armours are the result of a sculptural experimentation which started in 2012. They are shaped on the artist’s body and each one can be worn and inhabited by her. Together with the armours, there are a series of stills from videos printed on canvas that complement the centre of the sculptural section, giving a performative dimension to the whole set. Rediscovering the fighting power that a woman’s body can take on is a key point in the personal, political and cultural journey of feminist liberation at the core of the artist’s work.
The leopard print has been a code of Dior since the times of Mizza Bricard, and became one of the most recognisable symbols of the Maison when it was reinterpreted by Marc Bohan. Our vision of this code for the Fall/Winter 2025 collection develops futher on the elegant and contemporary aspect of this pattern, thanks to a new approach which promotes a defined silhouette and couture-like lines.
