Dior's L.A. Cruise Show Delivers Glamour, Struggles for Substance

Cathy Horyn reviews Dior’s Los Angeles cruise show staged outdoors at LACMA, with 900 VIP attendees and Hollywood-infused lighting and setting. Jonathan Anderson links fashion to cinema and film collaborations, citing Ruscha and Scotty Bowers, while headpieces by Philip Treacy add drama. The event exudes glamour and a compelling mood, aided by Cadillacs and masterful lighting, but the collection itself reads as uneven: standout Ruscha-printed shirts, yet many silk gowns feel shapeless or over-embellished.

Dior Fall 2026: Daylight-Ready Silhouettes Meet 18th-Century Codes

Dior’s Fall 2026 collection, staged in the sunlit Tuileries Garden, reinterprets 18th‑century codes through daylight-friendly silhouettes with deconstructed frock coats, peplum jackets, and bustle skirts in soft fabrics and candy hues, while adding more accessible pieces like ivory silk track pants and robe-coat dresses. Jonathan Anderson stresses a moving, non-formula silhouette and a careful craft progression for bags, aiming for a lighter, transitional wardrobe.

Cathy Horyn’s The Cut review of Jonathan Anderson’s couture debut for Dior describes a youthful, floral-inflected collection shown in Villa Dior with museum-like displays and star attendees (Rihanna, Brigitte Macron, Arnault, Bezos). The line blends soft tailoring, minidresses and inventive florals, signaling a new, art-driven direction for Dior’s couture after Chiuri; Galliano’s return is noted, and the show sits alongside Daniel Roseberry’s Schiaparelli, which emphasizes theatrical, 3-D embroidery and “Scorpion Sisters” motifs. Chanel’s Blazy is also referenced as part of a couture week offering three distinct visions. While a few looks miss the mark and lighting isn’t ideal, the overall takeaway is that Dior’s couture has been revitalized with a youthful, artistic pulse.
