Dior presented its Fall 2024 ready-to-wear collection at the Brooklyn Museum in New York. This series is a dialog about freedom, a way for women to create the perfect image and declare their true self.

Dior invited ambassadors and friends of the brand as front row guests, including Haerin, a member of the popular Korean band NewJeans, and actress Anya Taylor-Joy, as well as: supermodel Karlie Kloss, actresses Alexandra Daddario, Elle Fanning, Rosamund Pike and others.

Dior Fall 2024 collection is dedicated to New York, that's why creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri chose New York for the show. The Statue of Liberty is a symbol of freedom, originally presented by France to the United States in the late 19th century, and Christian Dior's autobiography has a whole chapter dedicated to his trip to New York. This time Maria Grazia Chiuri traces this connection through prints of the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower.
<blockquote>
 "I couldn&rsquo;t be happier to be back in New York City for the presentation of the Dior&nbsp;Fall Winter collection, which will take place at the Brooklyn Museum. Christian Dior&rsquo;s ties with the USA hark back to 1948, when he opened a store in New York just one year after inaugurating the Maison in Paris. The term &ldquo;New Look&rdquo;, which would define the most iconic silhouette of the Maison to this day, was coined by the editor in chief of Harper&rsquo;s Bazaar, Carmel Snow, which shows how much the influence of the American fashion world has shaped Dior throughout the years." - shared <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/C5q7drxLka6/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Maria Grazia Chiuri</a>.

The bridge between the two cultures was crossed by the goddess of the silver screen, Marlene Dietrich, a strong and feminine actress who worked closely with Dior both on stage and behind the scenes. Marlene Dietrich was another source of inspiration for the collection, and Maria Grazia Chiuri brought her versatile and androgynous charm to the Dior style. Marlene Dietrich's men's suits, such as ties or vests, were controversial at the time, but they taught us that women have the right to wear whatever they want. This time, Dior chose British menswear fabric Tweeds, a reference to Marlene Dietrich's look, with wide pants or a straight knee-length skirt paired with a blazer. Elegant dresses recreate 1940s style, some are light and flowing, and fitted undergarments become part of the look. Fabrics such as ground silk, crepe velvet and crepe are interpreted in a modern way. Stylish. Some pieces are embroidered with stars, lilies of the valley, clovers and bees, echoing Monsieur Dior's favorite designs.
