Meet the female skaters who opened the Dior show in Korea!
The skatepark-inspired set was specially built in the central esplanade of Ewha Women’s University in Seoul to host the unveiling of Dior Fall 2022 by Maria Grazia Chiuri. The show opened with a display by a group of local female skateboarders whose presence served to introduce the collection’s ethos of collaboration, community and sisterhood
Christian Dior opened their Fall 22 show in Korea with 10 female skateboarders skating one after another down a mini street/park/pump track. The skaters wearing Dior jumpsuits started the show and as they ended their opening segment, models started walking down the makeshift runway wearing a mix of what looked like private school x grunge x punk wear - which was amazing!
Here in the USA Dior has been embracing female skaters for a while, with pro skater/model Briana King being their favorite muse this past year.
