Paris Fashion Week began in earnest today with Maria Grazia Chiuri’s latest feminist treatise for Dior. Guests including Charlize Theron, Anya Taylor-Joy, Jenna Ortega, Bianca Jagger, Robert Pattinson, Rosalía and Jennifer Lawrence packed a huge tent in the Tuileries Garden to watch the show.
The collection was unveiled in front of a video installation by the Italian artist Elena Bellantoni, entitled Not Her. Screens lit up in bright fuschia pink and yellow featured collage imagery which in Chiuri’s words “seek to question the responsibilities of images in creating and enforcing stereotypical narratives around femininity and womanhood.”
