Kimono sleeves, sweeping coats, and floral motifs bloomed against the shadow of Kyoto’s five-storey pagoda as Dior’s Fall 2025 collection took over the grounds of the historic To-ji temple. While the city is known more for its temples than runways, the show marked a poetic meeting point between tradition and modernity.
Against this historic backdrop, creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri presented her collection for the house on April 15, where she used the space to explore fashion as both a garment and gesture. Drawing from the kimono and its influence on Dior’s own archives, she explores how different cultures shape the way we wear and move through clothes. The result: belted coats and jackets with soft, architectural lines; wide trousers and flowing skirts that shift with every step; black silk shot through with gold embroidery and whispering floral prints.
But beyond the dreamy silhouettes and embroidered motifs, all eyes were on the front row, where a dazzling guest list of Dior ambassadors and fashion darlings gathered to witness the spectacle. Scroll on for more.
