Knitwear

Maria Grazia Chiuri's knitwear for women continues the heritage of the House and imagines contemporary creations complemented by iconic accents. The Creative Director follows the lead of Christian Dior by designing pieces that contribute to the freedom of their shared muse, the modern woman. She takes cues from the avant-garde spirit of the couturier, who pioneered a revolution in women's fashion when he debuted his 1947 New Look collection in Paris. The House's legacy is one of elegance that effortlessly adapts to every woman's lifestyle, with Dior knitwear perpetuating that tradition. Available in a line of sweaters, cardigans, tops, jackets, bralettes, briefs, skirts, shorts and pants, the designs revisit the iconic symbols of 30 Avenue Montaigne. Throughout the collections, these designer sweaters for women are enhanced with the Dior Oblique, Toile de Jouy, Houndstooth and Camouflage embroidery and other emblematic motifs, as well as original prints inspired by the couturier's life and various passions.
Whether they express elegance or casual allure, these wardrobe essentials are regularly embellished with the bee, the lucky number 8 or the House's signature, in tribute to the Christian Dior ateliers. The bee in particular recalls the nickname Christian Dior gave to the craftsmen and women who spent countless hours meticulously creating each collection. That dedication to craftsmanship still remains. Dior knitwear is hand-assembled with precision through a traditional manufacturing process. Each piece is comfortable and plush thanks to the use of natural materials including cashmere, merino wool, linen, silk, and cotton. The collection is also made with sleek finishes such as ribbed edges, contrasting panels, embroidered details, reversible styling options, inscriptions or even 'CD' buttons that bring a signature, jewel-like touch. Versatility and effortlessness, along with a perpetual sophistication, distinguish the unique timelessness of Dior's women's sweaters. Elegant cardigans can be worn over a T-shirt to create a relaxed look or paired with a blouse for something elevated. Opting for heavier styles during the cooler months and lighter choices to take one into warmer temperatures, they can be worn all year long to enhance every outfit with a dose of refinement. Offered in vibrant hues and in more neutral shades such as gray, ecru, navy blue and black, these creations can be coordinated with other ready-to-wear styles, as well as the accessories and shoes of the season for a distinctively Dior ensemble.
