“Escape, get inspired, create, color,” the online coloring book encourages.
Complete with seven pages, “Dior and the Art of Color” is another fun printable activity fans can complete during this extra downtime. The fashion and shoe business has stepped up to launch a number of creative initiatives that involve coloring, an activity experts say is proven to reduce stress and anxiety.
In addition to the coloring book, WWD announced that Dior plans to bring its “Designer of Dreams” retrospective to China in July. The show previously showed in Paris back in 2017. The luxury fashion house told WWD that it will show the immersive exhibit in Shanghai from July 28 to Oct. 4.
WWD reported that Dior plans to host an event on July 24 to kick off the show, though it isn’t confirmed whether Pietro Beccari, the chief executive officer of Dior, or Maria Grazia Chiuri, the women’s wear artistic director, will attend given the current travel bans issued by China in light of the coronavirus pandemic.
