First off, Alfardan Jewellery’s got the scoop, apparently. They’re talking about Victoire de Castellane (who, by the way, seems like a total boss lady leading the charge at Dior Joaillerie) taking 2D fabric prints and somehow, magically, turning them into 3D jewelry for this “Dior Print” collection. Taormina, wherever *that* is, got the big reveal. I mean, seriously, how do you even *do* that? It’s like, imagine taking your grandma’s floral tablecloth and making a necklace out of it. Only, you know, *way* fancier. And probably a LOT more expensive. My guess is, it involves a LOT of tiny, tiny diamonds.
Speaking of expensive, the other thing I saw was about ‘Haute joaillerie de luxe’. Seriously, what even *is* haute joaillerie? It sounds like something you’d only hear in a movie. But anyway, they’re saying the Dior Délicat collection is shining in some fancy hotel inspired by Paris. Which, duh, of course it is. Because *of course* Dior would be all about the fancy hotels and the City of Light. It’s just…expected, you know?
And then there’s this whole “Versailles” trilogy thing that Victoire de Castellane finished. I guess she’s been working on it for a while? I’m honestly not sure *what* the trilogy is about, but “Versailles” makes me think of Marie Antoinette and, well, beheadings. Hopefully the jewelry isn’t *that* edgy, but I mean, Dior is known for pushing boundaries, right? So who knows, maybe it’s like, super subversive and full of hidden meanings. Or, you know, maybe it’s just really pretty and expensive.
Then there’s the “Les Jardins de la Couture” thing, which is all about flowers. Flowers, flowers, everywhere! Diamonds pretending to be petals, that whole shebang. Sounds kinda sweet, actually. Like something your rich aunt would wear to a garden party. I bet the craftsmanship is insane. You have to think with “high precision” it would be!
Oh! And Dior Gem collection’s got new rings and bracelets! So yeah, even *more* stuff to drool over that I can’t afford. Honestly, sometimes I wonder who *actually* buys this stuff? Like, does Beyoncé own all of it? Is there a secret Dior jewelry society of ridiculously wealthy people? I need answers!
