DREAMT up and designed by Maria Grazia Chiuri, the new DiorAlps capsule collection could only be one thing: stylish. From sleek salopettes to snow boots, it’s everything a ski-chic wardrobe requires this winter season.
This year the Maison’s AW24 collection debuted in Paris which re-awoke the Miss Dior branding and dynamic styles originally designed by Marc Bohan and Philippe Guibourgé in 1967. This 2024 reiteration of DiorAlps claims motifs from this show as inspiration.

Jackets, the Miss Dior bag, and snug après-ski boots are adorned with the bold Miss Dior Graffiti print – a focus for Dior this year – for an on-slope statement. On the jackets, the Miss Dior print is carefully aligned so that the ‘ss’ align to form slope-like swirls across the pieces to usher the magic of the mountains.

DiorStar-studded, hooded knitwear in neutral greys and blacks as well as dusty-toned pale pink also steal the show, alongside ski goggles in the classic Dior Oblique print. The Plan de Paris print also returns this year, featuring the black-and-white sketch mapping Paris’ tangle of avenues on down jackets and gilets for a sophisticated style that pairs perfectly with a freshly powdered piste.

Characteristic of Dior, there is a couture-like attention to craft in each of the garments as knee reinforcements enhance the durability of trousers and ski suites while full-length zips on each jacket ensure maximum protection from the harsh colder climes.
DiorAlps is the new snow-chic capsule collection to know and wear on your next alpine adventure as well as all winter – whether it’s a white one or not.
