Every creation comes with a special invitation, and the new Dior jacket is one of self-assertion and freedom of movement. For the House’s Spring-Summer 2022 ready-to-wear collection, Maria Grazia Chiuri designed an unparalleled knitted jacket with short sleeves inspired by the fashion of the sixties. And since it highly reflects Dior’s great attention to details, we can’t but mention a few; made from a cotton and wool jersey, this exceptional jacket was knitted using the intarsia process, embellished with fabric-covered buttons and enhanced by an emblematic “Christian Dior” signature band on the back. Black and red checks come as a cherry on top of this jacket, taking it to a new level of creativity.
