Rumors have been circulating for months that Maria Grazia Chiuri was to exit Christian Dior as creative director. Today, the speculation has become a reality, as Dior announced the end of their creative partnership. The Italian designer became the first female creative force behind the renowned French fashion house in 2016. For almost a decade, MGC’s vision has granted the LVMH-owned house a record-breaking amount of growth, given a mix of commercially successful products (like the Dior Book Tote), feminist-driven storytelling, and the celebration of global craftsmanship. On Tuesday, Maria Grazia Chiuri ventured back to her hometown of Rome to stage the Christian Dior Cruise 2026 collection (ultimately her last). Back in April, Jonathan Anderson was announced as Kim Jones’ successor at Dior Men. Rumors remain rampant within the industry that the British designer is also to succeed MGC. Stay tuned.
