More about the Dior x Paris Saint-Germain collaboration
Dior’s exclusive collection for Paris Saint-Germain is the perfect amalgamation of sports and fashion, albeit with a refined edge. The wide range of selections focuses heavily on black hues with a laidback vibe. Creative Director Kim Jones has crafted the collection keeping the football club’s aesthetic and ethos in mind, which happen to coincide with the French house’s ethos as well.
The exciting collection includes a Harrington jacket, a knitted sweater, and a polo shirt, all of which are adorned with an embroidered Paris Saint-Germain patch and the ‘CD’ initials. Dior Explorer black leather derbies that feature the French maison’s signature oblique in matching tones, and a luxurious Dior Lingot bag that includes the famous ‘CD’ diamond motif are also part of this collection.

For a more sophisticated and dressed-up look, Jones has designed customised formal wear essentials for each player. Focusing on Dior’s savoir-faire, the key pieces include a cashmere coat, a suit, and a shirt, paired with black leather monks. The accessories include a cashmere scarf, a silk tie, and a reversible black or navy blue belt that offers an extra touch of sophistication to the formalwear.
All of these exclusive creations are set to elevate the Paris Saint-Germain team’s style for the upcoming season.
