Echoing the bucolic spirit of Milly-la-Forêt, where Christian Dior loved to go to rest and replenish his energy, Cordelia de Castellane envisions Les Milly collection.

Made in Italy using traditional mouth-blown glass techniques, these creations are embellished with the House’s signature codes reinterpreted with a fresh twist. Clovers, flowers, bees, ladybirds and butterflies are featured on water and wine glasses, as well as three variations of jugs and bowls, in a delicate dialogue between craftsmanship and poetry.

Springtime objects of desire joyfully flourishing with renewed Dior symbols.

Echoing the Tulipe line – conceived by Monsieur Dior for the spring-summer 1953 haute couture collection – Dior Maison creations are adorned with this delicate flower, a symbol of love and renewal.

Presented in four shades, graceful petals flourish on refined tableware – platters, dinner and dessert plates, tea and coffee sets. Crafted from Limoges porcelain and highlighted with 24-karat gold details, these pieces evoke the delicacy of hand-painted artistry. The motifs are echoed on a teapot, cream jug, and sugar bowl in plum tones, offering an extra touch of elegance to any table. A tribute to floral poetry and art de vivre.

This winter, three sunglasses designs accompany the sporty silhouettes of the Coco Neige collection.

Gabrielle Chanel made pearls an inseparable element of her allure. Worn over striped tops, tweed suits or little black dresses, she accumulated pearls as multiple sautoirs and necklaces. This key detail was immortalised by both Man Ray and Horst P. Horst in unforgettable photographs. As jewellery or buttons, sophisticated embroidery or oversized and transformed into minaudières, pearls are a constant in the Chanel repertoire. Now their gentle simplicity provides the inspiration for this winter’s eyewear collection.

Fascinated by a Mark Shaw photograph of Christian Dior in his Winter Garden, Maria Grazia Chiuri created a delicate pattern depicting plants, flowers and birds. She thus plays homage, through the Dior autumn-winter 2022-2023 ready-to-wear collection, to bygone times woven into the materials and forms of today through the historical art of embroidery.

First unveiled at the Dior spring-summer 2022 ready-to-wear show, the MissDior sunglasses line, designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri, has been enriched with two new models for the Fall 2022 collection. Inspired by the fashion of the 1950s, these new creations reinterpret the iconic butterfly shape, highlighted by a delicate metal frame in a gold or gun metal finish. Echoing the punk spirit of the collection’s looks, the lenses are alternately adorned with dark, intense shades of gray, green, blue or burgundy, or vibrant colors such as pink, fuchsia and yellow, for an irresistibly “pop” attitude.

Created by Cartier perfumer, Mathilde Laurent, this new variation reveals a second nature that is as botanical as it is vivacious. It enriches the palette of this spicy and woody scent, emblematic and elegant, known for its olfactory intensity.

Lending a vivacity to the original ingredients of Déclaration Eau de Toilette, the fragrance blooms again, unprecedented and like a new spring. The cedar is brimming with sap, the spices are fresher, the citrus leaves are greener and more delicate.
The beauty and simplicity of this freshness is captured by Cartier through the new green shade of the bottle, which has been tailored to match the elegance of this scent.

Presented for the first time at the Spring-Summer 2022 ready-to-wear show, the Chanel 22 bag is the House’s latest bag imagined by Virginie Viard. Like its predecessor – the Chanel 19 created in 2019 – its name refers to both the year of its creation and a powerful symbol in Chanel’s numerology: in 1922, N°22 was launched, the House’s second fragrance after N°5 created in 1921.

Anchored firmly in its time, the Chanel 22 bag combines simplicity and comfort. Functional and light, made of an extremely supple yet resistant leather, this bag comes in three sizes (small, medium and large) and as a backpack version. For summer, it is available in navy blue, purple, and two shades of pink, white and black. Ever loyal to Gabrielle Chanel’s desire to give women freedom of movement and spirit, the Chanel 22 bag is a genuine ally for daily life. Its interior, sophisticated and practical, closes with a magnetic button and purse-like drawstrings. It features an inside zipped pocket and a removable pouch held in place by a snap hook. The Chanel 22 bag adopts the codes of the House, from the quilted leather and metal chain interlaced with leather to the “Chanel”signature composed of gold or lacquered metal letters. Finally, it comes adorned with a “Chanel Paris” medallion with an openwork double C. Modern and refined, the result of the House’s creative energy, it is destined to become a timeless Chanel creation. A veritable object of desire, the Chanel 22 bag writes a new chapter in the history of the House, combining creativity and liberty. It will be available in boutiques from March 2022.

Asserting an identity, signature and style, the eyewear in the Chanel Spring 2022 collection comes adorned with the emblematic chain interlaced with leather and “charms” bearing the symbols of the House. Applied to acetate or metal frames, these details punctuate both the sunglasses and their optical versions, while a titanium line completes this collection of eyewear, conceived as veritable fashion accessories.

Chanel’s emblematic signature, the intertwined double C inspires the Winter 2021 Eyewear collection. Reinterpreted in a daring volume and worked in the spirit of a baroque jewel, it is positioned like a brooch on both the sunglasses and the optical frames. One of the Cs is adorned with a chain interlaced with leather; the other C is set with shimmering square rhinestones. A sophisticated two-tone, two-material combination, that coordinates each time with the colour of the temples.
