Dior presented its Cruise 2023 collection in Seville, specifically on the Plaza de España. For Maria Grazia Chiuri, the creative director of the House French, the Dior Cruise 2023 collection is a journey of discovery and reflection. The chosen locations provided a spectacular setting for an exhibition of garments that followed each other to recreate a parade, echoing the company’s history and its desire to seek original collaborations inspired by its areas of origin.
We have fallen in love with pinstripe men’s suits, suspender trousers, silk-lined cardigans, white shirts, Andalusian jockey trousers, jackets adorned with Brandenburg closures, short boleros that make the silhouette even slimmer, the sleeves that flare out as if they were a cape..

Every shade of the eye palette —Denim, black bow, Rouge Trafalgar or Mitza— corresponds to an emblematic Dior garment and offers a range of intense shades that are easy to wear and combine.
At the last minute, just before we parade, applied a touch of colorless lip balm to lids to give the look a satin finish.
It should be noted that the skin was previously worked with the range of concealers and makeup bases backstage to withstand the heat of Seville and the spotlight. For example, the range corrector, Face & Body Flash Perfector Concealer, is the company’s first face and body concealer with high coverage and a sensory formula that melts into the skin without disappearing, for a radiant, natural and radiant finish. water resistant.
