Maria Grazia Chiuri Brings a Fresh Take on Hooped Petticoats in Dior’s Haute Couture Show

Dior’s Maria Grazia Chiuri has once again delivered a breathtaking Haute Couture collection at Paris Fashion Week, this time reinventing hooped petticoats and corsetry with a modern, ethereal touch.

He studied fashion design at Central Saint Martins in 1980, and his 1984 graduation collection was immediately snapped up by Browns, the iconic British fashion boutique.

However, his meteoric rise was met with turbulent challenges; despite his creative brilliance, poor business acumen led to three bankruptcies between 1985 and 1993. Seeking a fresh start, Galliano relocated to Paris. His break came in 1995, when Anna Wintour introduced him to the LVMH Group, paving the way for his appointment as Creative Director at Givenchy. In October 1996, he took the reins at Dior, marking the beginning of his career's zenith. Galliano's era at Dior was defined by exaggerated silhouettes, theatrical storytelling, and audacious narratives, earni...
