Well folks here you have it … THE DUMBING DOWN OF DIOR

There is nothing really wrong with the clothes other than
they carry the label DIOR.
Hum drum commonplace yawn worthy clothes that if you take
away the tailoring you are left with the boring parts of Dana Buchman, Ellen Tracy and Anne Klein
and not on their worst days. This Italian mama who is supposedly in charge has absolutely
no inkling or clue as to what charisma and stature Dior has carried for
decades.

Clothes for working girls and college girls was hardly the
MO for the Maison and now we have the criminally inept delusional woman who
thinks she will turn the tide from a revered house and brand and make it
clothes for the “everyday woman”…I guess she forget that her price points are
not that of Kohl’s and Macys so her master plan might be foiled or misguided.
There are no signatures no allure no panache and without being derogatory these
are housewife working girl clothes and not clothes for the cognoscenti of
fashion.

Dior was the jewel in the crown, aside from LV, within the
LVMH empire and now it looks more like some flawed stone with no value at all
ready except to be discarded. Yes the clothes look better than in the past but
they look like just that ….generic clothes… how sad. Of course there is blah
blah blah about archives and revival but the interpretation comes from someone
wjo has NO reading or visual comprehension let alone interpretation.
