Diorissima – Dior Haute Joaillerie
Just a few weeks after the Casino Royale Ball, on 26 May 2026, Dior once again chose the Palazzo del Casinò on Venice Lido to unveil Diorissima, the new Haute Joaillerie collection designed by Victoire de Castellane, Artistic Director of Dior Joaillerie.
The collection interprets the Maison’s creative universe through three main worlds – lush vegetation, the depths of the sea and the constellations – bringing naturalism and abstraction together and echoing themes dear to Christian Dior such as nature, superstition and the world of dreams. Clover, wisteria, fruit, coral, seabeds, suns and eclipses become motifs for compositions crafted from precious stones, colour and haute joaillerie savoir-faire.
The show brought 112 jewels to the runway, accompanied by 20 couture looks by Jonathan Anderson, in his first foray into haute couture creations for Dior. Bustier dresses, draping, pleated chiffon, velvets, organzas and pearls were designed to converse directly with the jewellery and turn the presentation into a true theatrical production.
Once again, the Palazzo del Casinò was more than a mere backdrop: it became part of the event’s narrative. Its monumental spaces, Art Deco atmosphere and visual connection with the Lido framed a project that wove together haute joaillerie, haute couture, set design and hospitality. Vogue also reported that the staging featured Murano glass arrangements and a dinner by multi-Michelin-starred chef Mauro Colagreco, further enriching the experiential dimension of the evening.
