Délicat by name and délicat by nature, this high jewelry collection from Dior pays homage to craft and creativity. Here, the Artistic Director of Dior Joaillerie, Victoire de Castellanev draws inspiration from the delicacy of embroidery and the lightness of lace and mimics this in precious stone form.
There is also the uniting of the motifs of the Galons Dior line with the elegance of Dearest Dior, embellishing each element differently, and specially designed to follow the curves of the body just like couture garments.
The rubies, emeralds, blue sapphires, rubellites, and tanzanites take center stage as the settings seem to fade into the background, revealing their bold hues in complex compositions to reflect the savoir-faire that’s beloved by Dior. There is also the merging of geometry and asymmetry interplays, as the jewels softly trace the hand, wrist, and neck.
A subtle tribute to Monsieur Dior’s passion for nature and botany, expect a stunning white gold set that includes a necklace, cuff bracelet, a double ring, and a pair of earrings, and they’re playfully punctuated with pique diamonds suggesting vegetal details.
The House’s legacy continues to pay homage to its artisans, and this respect is translated through seventy-nine models that all highlight the many expressions of multi-faceted femininity: fragile, powerful, graceful, assertive, and everything in between.
