Dior showcases the Haute Joaillerie collection Les Jardins de la Couture, presented at the Villa Erba on Lake Como.
June 23, 2023
Victoire de Castellane has written a new page in the history of Christian Dior haute joaillerie with Les Jardins de la Couture. Building on the previous ones, this chapter is told through 170 exceptional pieces – including three secret watches – making up four fascinating stories: Galons Fleuris, Très Cher Dior, Buissons Couture and Mini Milly.
Infinitely delicate, the models express the excellence of the Ateliers, where ancestral gestures converge with innovative savoir-faire. Colored stones, set one by one, some distinguished by the lacquer technique – the signature of the Artistic Director of Dior Joaillerie – create romantic miniature theatrical scenes suggesting the gentleness of spring. In a marvellous interweaving of gems, sparkling diamonds, iridescent mother-of-pearl, gold and sequins, this jewellery transcribes the splendors of the plant world in joyful abundance.
Get an exclusive look at the presentation at the Villa Erba on Lake Como, Italy, from the enchanting candlelit table setting for the gala dinner to the unveiling of jewelry-making masterpieces by Victoire de Castellane in a magical night-time setting, paired with couture looks by Maria Grazia Chiuri. As the evening unfolded, a breathtaking firework display illuminated the sky, echoing the sparkling creations, a tribute to Monsieur Dior’s love of gardens and couture.
