Dior's Maria Grazia Chiuri in Puglia, the Land of Two-Tails Sirens and Maybe Mami Wata

After sharing the Maty Fall Dior Cruise images two weeks ago, and Puglia’s role — much like California’s — in using impoverished, migrant laborers to produce the gourmet foods harvest, AOC unintentionally wandered into Puglia again last week.

This time the topic was feminism, the great African goddess Mami Wata and coffee, leaving me totally fascinated about the deep connections between Puglia and the African continent.

In these images, models Akon Changkou, Felice Nova Noordhoff and Selena Forrest are styled by Elin Svahn in ‘Everyone Under the Sun’, showcasing key looks from Maria Grazia Chiuri’s resort collection. Dario Catellani (IG) flashes the trio for American Vogue’s November focus on Chiuri’s vision for Dior as a modern-world brand.
