MOVING PICTURES
“Transcending time and making messages about equality eternal,” says Maria Grazia Chiuri, “is my work’s raison d’être.” Her Dior: Maria Grazia Chiuri’s New Voice features the work of 33 women photographers, including Coco Capitán, Laura Coulson, and Brigitte Niedermair, who photographed Dior’s “We Should All Be Feminists” T-shirt from Chiuri’s debut collection, inspired by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s essay. “I wanted female eyes to capture these pluralistic ideas of femininity and other perspectives on how women are represented, in connection with feminism,” says Chiuri, “which is the driving philosophy of my vision and of Dior’s identity today.” —Miles Pope
SWEET DREAMS
And elsewhere at Dior, smiles are on the up with these indoor-outdoor slippers, a collaboration with Kenny Scharf, which give new meaning to the idea of happy feet. The New York artist’s signature figures—the jolly likes of which have graced a Rockaway Beach motel, Danish bikes, and the walls of MoMA—marry Pop art and science fiction to giddy effect, so that whether sleepwalking or sidewalk striding, these psychedelic slip-ons are game for the ride. —MP
NEW WAVE
At Louis Vuitton’s spring/summer 2021 show, innovation met history when in-person attendees filed into the freshly remodeled department store La Samaritaine, a study in Second Empire design, and took their seats next to 360-degree cameras that captured the experience for at-home viewers. In keeping with the collection’s focus—and womenswear creative director Nicolas Ghesquière’s lifelong preoccupation—of playing with time, the iridescent leather Coussin bag is embossed with Vuitton’s 125-year-old fleur-de-lis logo and features two interchangeable straps (the silver chain shown here and one in branded canvas), offering styling options for now or later. —Daisy Shaw-Ellis
