Art as craft for Dior Spring-Summer 2022 Haute Couture


While the scenography is often an important element in the unveiling of a collection, for Dior Spring-Summer 2022 Haute Couture by Maria Grazia Chiuri it acquired an added significance by forging a special link with the exploration of the creative importance of the atelier lying at this collection’s heart. Watch to learn how the paintings of independently working Indian artists Madhvi and Manu Parekh were translated into large-scale embroideries by the artisans of the Chanakya School of Craft and Chanakya ateliers in Mumbai, under the direction of Karishma Swali. In a fusion of the folkloric and figurative, of feminine and masculine, the richly colored and textured works pulsed energetically in the show space, contrasting and enhancing the purity of tone and line of the couture clothing on the runway.
