Tried some things on. Sizes were all over the map. Ended up buying a Dior dress that channeled issey miyake with Prada sport toggles, :biggrin: second pic, size 42, 3200 USD. (The skirt has a bit too much volume, so I may have my third party professional tailor take it in a bit, after I’ve worn it a few times). I bought this bc it seems like the perfect travel dress, lightweight, pre-wrinkled, and rollable.

i loved the ankle grazing prairie leather skirt, size 40, (relatively well priced at 6300 USD which I think was the same price as last years cotton Under the Sea dress) , but I didn’t think I’d end up wearing it enough. (The leather skirt is too short for formal, and too long for my daily lifestyle). The medium thick waistband is very very comfy. IMO all of Dior leather RTW runs larger than the rest. ETA: I just realized that I bought my dior leather moto jacket last year full price for 4K USD (and I’ve been told the price for the same jacket has risen, so I’m not entirely sure how dior comes up with its prices).

The short sleeved techno bolero (forgot to note the size) was also cute and well priced, I think 2100+ USD, but I prefer chanel jacket/tops which are less boxy. Long sleeved jacket size 42, 3800 USD (my SA said if I wanted it, I should have it taken in at the waist); black and white toile dress, size 44, 4K USD. There was also a preview of the upcoming seasons shoes and bags, but I forgot to take pics.

In previous seasons, I am a Dior size 40-42, and a Montaigne line size 38. For sake of comparison, I am a chanel or Hermes size 38. Last pic is with my favorite Dior bucket hat; chanel jeans, from the last sale; Hermes ribbed sweater top with chain detail, this season; Hermes sellier baseball jacket, 2020; and navy cargo picotin.

Spring summer 2023 just hit the site today. Any thoughts on stand out rtw pieces from the release? I was hoping for more monochromatic lace looks (similar to the couture show.)

I just saw a small selection at my store, stock will arrive in batches and a special Popup event is fixed from the 23rd of this month. Am guessing for this collection, the standout print is the map of Paris.

I have an appointment in early April to see the collection. So excited for the map book tote & trench. Hoping my boutique will have them both in stock.

I preordered the map trench. It's the one piece on the runway that immediately caught my eye, and subsequently will kill my pocketbook! lol! Can't wait to see it IRL!

1. Cropped jacket in navy. The silk, twill and wool blend give the jacket a beautiful glisten.(Leather navy shorts are from Hermes SS 23')

2. Diorodeo hat

3. 'Dior Symbol' tall boots (hard to tell in photo). I sizes up on these. They are so comfortable I wore them nearly everyday of my trip after purchasing.

This look is stunning! Would you mind advising if the jacket was true to size or does it fit a little looser since it is more of a cropped straight cut? Many thanks!

Thank you so much! I vacillate between a 34 and 36 in dior jackets. I took a 36 in this because I wanted to wear it buttoned and I have a bigger bust. The jacket is mostly true to (dior jacket) size but if you have a larger bust and want to wear it buttoned I would size up. Also the sleeves were perfect and didn't need any tailoring. HTH
