PARIS (Reuters) – Christian Dior designer Maria Grazia Chiuri showed playful, sport-themed fashion for the LVMH-owned label’s spring-summer 2025 ready-to-wear collection on Tuesday to a front row of celebrities and France’s first lady Brigitte Macron.
Models marched down a long, straight runway parading jersey dresses, assymetric bodysuits and black trousers with white racing stripes running along the legs. Completing the looks were tall gladiator shoes — including sneakers — laced up to the top, while accessories included large pouches worn across the back.
Artist SAGG Napoli kicked off the show, entering a narrow corridor in the centre of the catwalk, carrying an archery set. After stretching her arms and neck, she stroked her long braid then grabbed an arrow from her belt and fired it.
“May the building of a strong mind and a strong body be the greatest work I have ever made,” was one of the quotes splashed on the set of the venue, a temporary tent in the Rodin Museum garden.
Paris Fashion Week, which features some of the biggest labels including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Hermes and Kering-owned Saint Laurent, follows industry shows in New York, London and Milan earlier this month. It wraps up on Oct. 1.
