Dior Knits Its New Bar Jacket

Dior’s Bar Jacket is undoubtedly an icon of the fashion world. Standing the test of time, it earned its place as an eternal symbol of the New Look and embodied Christian Dior’s success in capturing his modern vision for women. It has made its first appearance in the house’s first haute couture collection in 1947 and unsurprisingly opened the Fall-winter 2020-2021 show. However, this time, Maria Grazia Chiuri introduced this emblematic piece in a knit version.

As challenging as it seems, the designer succeeded in recreating, after four prototypes, the volume and cut of the original jacket. Bringing together elegance and comfort, freedom and movement, this knit wonder takes casual style to new heights and reflects Dior’s ultra-modernity.
