CELEBRATING British culture, Dior is set to launch it’s AW19 ready-to-wear collection in a Harrods pop up in surroundings adorned with the Union Jack, a telephone booth and even an English taxi. This is to mark the close relationship and ties the House has always cultivated with England.
The decor contrasts elegantly with the collection which showcases designs in a luxurious spectrum of greens, from emerald to jade, and a variety of high-quality materials including satin and suede.
