‘HER DIOR’: the documentary film that captures all that Maria Grazia Chiuri has done for feminism

On the occasion of Women’s Day, the Maison presented its latest audiovisual project at the Publicis Cinema in Paris.

The connection between fashion and art continues to be accentuated with the premiere of ‘Her Dior – Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Collaborations With Women Artists’, a documentary directed by Loïc Prigent that invites us to discover the soul of the feminine creativity that has marked the era of the creative designer at the House of Dior. Since her arrival at the Maison in 2016, Chiuri has made it clear that her vision is irrevocably intertwined with sonority, feminine expression and artistic collaboration

This audiovisual piece, which we had the pleasure of discovering first-hand during an exclusive screening held last Thursday, March 6th, delves into each and every one of the projects that have given life to Dior‘s most special collections. It immortalises the close relationship that Maria Grazia Chiuri has been forging with female artists from various disciplines for almost a decade now. Through her eyes, we understand how international figures such as Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Judy Chicago, Mickalene Thomas, Tomaso Binga, Robin Morgan, Joana Vasconcelos, Isabella Ducrot and SAGG Napoli, among many others, have been key players in the creation of a narrative of empowerment and beauty. With their voices and their works, the story is woven around the personal and professional connection that unites these artists with the creative director of the Casa, building a legacy of art and unwavering feminism.

Because the relationship between Maria Grazia and these women is not purely aesthetic, but corresponds to a shared vision of values and principles. From Adichie‘s iconic ‘We Should All Be Feminists’, turned into a Dior T-shirt that was raised as a banner of feminism in the Italian designer’s first collection, to the profound reflection on artistic creation and women’s expression, the documentary narrates how, season after season, the Maison‘s designs have become a canvas for telling the stories, emotions and perspectives of women.

In short, ‘Her Dior – Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Collaborations With Women Artists’ is much more than a documentary. It is a celebration of sisterhood, of the creative force that emerges when women support and uplift each other.
