As Helen Keller said, “The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart”, just like the joy of finding our perfect partner. It can be difficult for us to spend our lives in search of that soulmate, with whom we dream to spend our life together. In Indian society, marriage is so much more than just two people coming together. It’s an alliance of two families too. The relationship is based on faith with a sense of warmth.

In Puglia, Maria Grazia Chiuri developed a taste for the Mediterranean wardrobe that would never leave her. If you’ve ever wondered where the rustic romanticism of the Roman couturier’s vision for Christian Dior stems from, these are her roots. Following a cruise show in Marrakech that approached that most ancient tunics-and-sandals sensibility from a nomadic point of view, Chiuri said she was ready for something that felt “intimate” to her on a different level. Taking Monsieur Dior’s treasure trove of inspirations – much as it only encompasses ten years – out of its time frame and into present-day pragmatism, Chiuri presented an haute couture collection that hailed the freedom-of-choice character of this old craft.
