An intimate portrait of Jonathan Anderson’s first chapter for Dior womenswear – his Spring Summer 26 debut collection arrives in the pages of our March Sublime issue with a sense of renewal. Romantic, expressive and rich with the visual language that has long defined the House.
Anderson approached the collection with a fascination for beauty in its most deliberate form. Feminine codes appear throughout: bows tied around necks, shrunken and sculptural tailoring softened by flowing silhouettes, and delicate textures that celebrate craftsmanship. The heritage of Monsieur Dior remains present, yet Anderson reshapes it with a contemporary sensitivity, allowing tradition and experimentation to move together.
Within Weiss’s imagery, the garments take on a cinematic presence. Dresses sweep through diffused light, jackets hold their architectural structure while remaining soft on the body, and wide-brimmed hats introduce a dramatic and historical touch. Accessories punctuate each look – neckbands, pumps and of course, the new Dior Cigale forming sculptural accents that anchor the collection’s romantic energy.
Model Margarita Gambles wears the collection with poise – her presence lending strength to the softness of the garments. Alongside her, Merel Roggeveen moves with striking elegance, her silhouette creating bold lines that echo the precision of Anderson’s tailoring. Together they embody the emotional range of the collection, revealing femininity that feels powerful, expressive and self-assured.
