Comments from Anderson and Delphine Arnault

I am very honored to join the House of Dior as Creative Director of women's and men's wear. I have always been inspired by the rich heritage of this place: its depth and character. I look forward to collaborating with the legendary Atelier to create a new chapter in this incredible story. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Delphine Arnault and Bernard Arnault for their trust and partnership over the years.

I am pleased to welcome Jonathan Anderson as head of women's and men's wear at the House of Dior. I have followed his career with interest since he joined LVMH more than a decade ago. I am convinced that he will bring an original and modern vision, inspired by the great history of Christian Dior and its iconic qualities. The teams and Atelier will support and respond to Jonathan's creative ingenuity.
