Lappointment in Plaza de España after dark. There Dior Cruise 2023 parades in one of the most evocative squares not only in Seville but also in Spain. To the rhythm of flamenco, the models show off beauty looks with black double-layered eyes on a white base. And under gaucho hats, braids and plaits, bows and low and severe tails. Tribute to the Andalusian tradition.
Dior Cruise 2023, the beauty look inspired by the world of flamenco
After Athens, background of the suggestive Cruise 2022, we move to Seville. Homeland of flamenco and bullfighting, Maria Grazia Chiuri, creative director of the maison, continues her journey as a tribute to Christian Dior. The founder was in fact a lover of Spain and, since the 1950s, he has always drawn inspiration from the warm country.

It is against this background that the new collection marked by a comes to life dramatic beauty look. Black is the dominant color for an intense lookas only flamenco and bullfighting can be.
Spread out in full brush strokes, the hue chosen by Peter Philips is full, truly deep blackapplied underlining the upper mobile eyelid, then blending it outwards to emphasize the shape of the eyes. The gaze is the focal point of Cruise 2023 and emerges on a perfect, diaphanous and graceful base which is also one with the lips, left natural.
Under the gauchos, low tails, braided and bowed hair
A dramatic make-up that translates into stiffness for the hair. Almost modest, theand hair is severe and without frills, between low crops or very precise and neat weaves. There is no room for flashes in these hair looks.
Only one detail, the most feminine of all: a bow, but black which holds braids and tails, gathered simply with the central line. Practical hairstyles, to be done alone and above all to be worn under the gaucho, the wide-brimmed hat worn by matador but also by the herdsmen. A tragic and powerful beauty look like the flamenco danced by Carmen Amaya, La Capitanathe first dancer to perform in all the drama of Andalusian dance dressed as a man.
