The whole thing is, like, totally confusing. I mean, looking at what The RealReal and Vestiaire Collective are doing with authenticated Dior scarves – *those* make sense. It’s all about the iconic Dior logo, maybe some silk, you’re buying into the Dior *brand*. And the “Fashion Stories” book? Cool, history, inspiration, that sort of thing. But where does the Swiss movement fit into all of *that*?
Maybe… maybe it’s a metaphor? Like, the scarf is so expertly crafted, so precisely made, it’s like a Swiss watch? Maybe the thread count is ridiculously high? I’m just spitballing here, folks. My grandma always said a good silk scarf could elevate any outfit, make you feel like a million bucks, but she never mentioned anything about cogs and springs.
Honestly, I think somebody’s just gotten wires crossed. “Swiss Movement” probably got stuck in there by mistake, or maybe it’s a really, *really* obscure reference that only hardcore Dior aficionados would get. You know, those people who know *everything* about every collection since, like, 1947.
Or… could it be a misinterpretation? Perhaps the material that the scarf is made of has something to do with Switzerland? Or maybe it has to do with the design of the scarf, perhaps a homage to the Swiss? Oh boy, the possibilities are endless…
