Fashion designer Maria Grazia Chiuri helmed Dior Couture’s spring 2022 collection, for which craftsmanship was front-of-mind. With embroidery as one of the main themes of the collection, designs in the spring 2022 collection featured little adornments, offering simple, elegant silhouettes. The collection was showcased during Paris Fashion Week in January 2022. The show’s backdrop was a set featuring the work of Indian artists Madhvi and Manu Parekh.

The Met Gala raises funds for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and celebrates the Costume Institute’s annual exhibits. This year’s theme, “The Garden of Time,” nods to the “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” exhibit, which will open to the public on Friday. The 2024 event is co-chaired by Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, Bad Bunny, Chris Hemsworth and Vogue editor in chief Anna Wintour.
