Italian designer Maria Grazia Chiuri has been confirmed as the new artistic director at Christian Dior, making her the first ever woman to lead the iconic French fashion house.
“It is a great honour to be joining the house of Dior,” said Chiuri in a statement. “I measure the tremendous responsibility of being the first woman in charge of the creation in a house so deeply rooted in the pure expression of femininity. The endless wealth of its heritage continues to be a constant source of inspiration for fashion, and I cannot wait to express my own vision.”
She will present her first show in Paris on September 30. Congrats Maria!
